Hello I need help finding a GBA game I use to play when I was kid. It is a tactic game like Onimusha. However I remember the cartridge was red but apparently there aren't that many red GBA games. Anyway it was about this one dude who fights monsters instead of humans, it was like a dark fantasy game. Any idea?

Time Stamps 0:30 Gunstar Future Heroes 1:46 Sonic Advance 2 3:02 Kururin Paradise 4:11 F-Zero Maximum Velocity 6:08 Super Monkey Ball Jr. 7:15 Astro Boy Omega Factor 8:53 Golden Sun 1 & 2 10:25 Spyro 2 11:48 Crash Bandicoot XS 12:37 Metroid Fusion & Zero Mission 15:15 Wario Ware Twisted 16:30 Megaman Battle Network 3 17:45 Castlevania Aria of Sorrow 19:34 Advance Wars 2 (and 1) Fantastic video, I only just discovered your channel recently while doing lots of research about games to get on the Wii U and 3DS eshops before the close, but you can tell from your collection in the background as well as your choices and how you share your authentic memories of each game how invested and knowledgeable and sincere you are, so big thumbs up to you for that 👍🏻. As far as I know, the following games from this recommendations list are available on those eshops (in some regions), so if people wanted to pick them up digitally before those shops disappear, then this would be a good chance to get them: Sonic Advance 2 Kururin Paradise F-Zero Maximum Velocity Golden Sun 1 & 2 Metroid Fusion & Zero Mission Megaman Battle Network 3 (and the others) Castlevania Aria of Sorrow (and Harmony of Dissonance) Advance Wars 2 If any of the others are also available, forgive my ignorance. Keep up the good work! The GBA is a fantastic portable console with such a great library, and playable in so many ways - the original DS, the Gamecube GB Player, The Wii U VC, and now Switch Online. It’s a truly wonderful chapter of gaming history that more people should enjoy, and you do a great job of sharing your enthusiasm and knowledge to help make that possible. It’s much appreciated!

A retrospective on the Wars series? Yes, that would be sweet. I played a lot of Battle Isle on the Amiga when I grew up and once I got a GBA Advance Wars felt like coming home, which isn't all that surprising as they share a lineage going back to Nectaris (both this and Famicom Wars coming from Hudson). Since then, turn based RPGs and tactical strategy games are among my favorite genres, so yeah, I would love to see a video on that series.

I think you nailed it with this review. Doom should have been on there somewhere just because it was such an incredible port, but yeah...I threw my hands in the air in joy when you announced Advance Wars as #1. Couldn't agree more. I remember seeing reviews for it in magazines and it was the reason I bought the GBA shortly after its release. I was really into Command & Conquer back in those days and I thought it was going to be a similar experience on the go, but it was completely different and ultimately even better than what I expected. It was so addictive and rewarding. Also props for including Crash on here. That was another one of my favorites and it doesn't get talked about much. There were a few released for it, but I think the one you reviewed is the one I had. I was really blown away by the graphics and music it had. It really felt like a PS1 experience in your hand. You're a great reviewer, dude. And solid collection! Subscribed.

Saw Golden Sun coming as soon as he mentioned the joint entry, it just belongs on every one of these GBA lists

I can't argue with your top pick - Advance Wars 1 & 2 are such amazing games. The Switch release is going to add even more to two 10/10 games! Can't wait to replay them! 😍

Games like that made me feel stupid as a kid. I thought maybe it just wasn't my style and I moved on. Later, I realized I was actually a stupid kid, and should have paid attention to my initial feelings. memries

Astro Boy looks really good for a GBA! I kinda wish they'd reproduce the cartridges. I've only just gotten into gaming, and I also wonder why Wario Ware's aren't as popular. Those quick-plays are just hilarious.

Astro boy is amazing! and Wario ware was popular back then, but some of the later entries haven't been so good...

Absolutely love all the F-Zero games… though SNES will always be tops for me. I feel like it has a bit tighter controls than GBA versions, though they’re all still great.

Good list you're missing Fire Emblem 7 in my view though. Big game debut fir that series and I much preferred to Advance Wars.

For Astro Boy, I always thought it would be cool to see a collab between Astro Boy, Boy Robot, and classic Megaman 🤔 Metroid Fusion.. Managed to create the perfect horror atmosphere. Thanks for shedding light on Metroid Zero Mission! I knew about it, but didn't know what it was about.. I'm definitely gonna play it on my NES Mini 😄 I love the Megaman Battle Network series
