Devs over at Wayforward have actually wanted to make a sequel/re-release the original for quite a while now (They've confirmed as much on Twitter), but their hands are tied on the matter unless BN decides to give them back one day. The game's ending (Whichever they decide to deem canon) deserves to be followed up on, cause the state of the universe afterwards would make for a compelling sequel. Thanks for covering it, Rebel! It needs all the love it can get!

[@magetsalive5162]

The thing to remember about Sigma Star Saga, apart from Psyme being best girl, is that Krill ships are bioships and, as such, are alive. Random encounters are literally a random ship in atmosphere on patrol getting scared by something moving and sucking up the nearest person wearing a parasite suit to blow up enough scary things until it calms down. I wish WayForward would revisit the universe, maybe with the random encounters toned down a smidge or reworked a bit, even if it means having to change the lore behind them.

[@johnbuscher]

Hooooly crap, that’s actually a funny bit of lore that explains why things are random. If Wayforward did another one, I’d ask for an SMT-style warning icon when a random battle is more likely (and can be excused as a ship getting suspicious of something) and offer the player some mechanic that can help reduce that suspicion level so that you aren’t pulled completely at random.

[@RebelTaxi]

God I forgot about the explanation. It's just insane

[@jasonblalock4429]

Despite its flaws, Sigma Star Saga is my favorite GBA game that no one's ever heard of. So nice to see it getting attention. Personally, I think the main reason it failed is just the "two great tastes...?" gameplay. The Venn Diagram of people who enjoy RPGs **and** Shmups is pretty slim.

[@krodmandoon3479]

[@Popcultureguy3000]

So in the next one you’ll talk about Astro Boy: The Omega Factor, right? It’s filled with so much fan service for the larger Osamu Tezuka extended universe by making his “Star System” (his method of “recasting” the same character models in different “roles” like they were actors in film and television, this allowed him to save time making manga because he wouldn’t always have to come up with a new character design for each of the hundreds of manga and anime projects he made throughout his sadly cut-short by cancer life) a huge plot point and fetch quest in the second half of the game. It’s incredible they were able to make such a dedicated tribute to Tezuka’s many creations when most of his manga library wasn’t translated into English until long after this game and the 2003 anime revival of Astro Boy had concluded. And speaking of Treasure, this was console was pretty much their last hurrah when it came to side scrolling bullet-hell schmups, and Gunstar Super Heroes would also be a good GBA game to mention next time.

[@shannonbateswillis5022]

No. Freaking. Way! I grew up with Omega Factor as a kid! I still love that game and want to see it again! Please check it out, Mr. Pan! I know you’ll love it! Also, thanks for telling me about Black Belt and Sigma Star! I’ll see if I can’t find some decent fan art online!

[@Levitz9]

Omega Factor is hands-down one of THE best action games on the GBA, and it's a criminal shame it's so unknown. Easily one of the best games Treasure's ever made.

[@IndohNintendo]

Astro Boy: Omega Factor and Gunstar Super Heroes are absolute cream of the crop on GBA. Theyre both great looking, as well. I'd say Gunstar might be the best looking game on GBA full stop.

Thank you for talking about Sigma Star Saga. It's one of the most underrated and oft-forgotten games WayForward has ever made, in my opinion.

[@misterzygarde6431]

Even though I didn’t grow up with a GBA, I feel oddly nostalgic for games on there like the Mario Advance series and the Sonic Advance trilogy. Maybe it had to do with the various fan works made in Adobe Flash like Super Mario Bros Z, Final Fantasy Sonic X, Sonic RPG, and Bowser’s Kingdom to name a few. Also I enjoyed my time playing the Super Mario Advance games on the Wii U Virtual Console. Also if/when you’re going to cover the Nintendo 3DS, I legit want to see you cover Blaster Master Zero. It is a fun revival and really should get more attention. It’s also from the people who did Mega Man Zero, Azure Striker Gunvolt, and Mega Man ZX. Also legit, it’s dumb that Nintendo hasn’t let Waluigi appear in WarioWare.

Boktai 1 is one of my absolute favorite games in the GBA library xD

[@Tweezawed]

Kid Paddle's author (Midam) had even more success with the spinoff comic "Game Over", focusing on the barbarian vidya character and the horrible deaths he or the princess he tries to rescue meet. The comic was (and still is) published in several kid magazines. It's great and it shows that trash or gory humor still works with the young uns. While not yet a classic, it's broadly recognized in France.

[@AtomicF0x]

Ahhh, I love the GB Advance. back in early 2003 I think, my first game for the advance was a Ruby version my mom bought me at this beachside shop before I even had the handheld itself. But over the summer, my friend David let me borrow his and I was definitely the envy of my brothers for a while. ...Maybe a little too much though, because my older brother wanted to play my Ruby version so much that when I told him no, he threw my old Red Version against the wall and it deleted my entire file with my level 80-90 pokemon.

I have a lot fun (and frustrating) memories of Sigma Star Saga. It's one of the rare times I took a blind chance on a game without a franchise backing it or word of mouth, and I ultimately wasn't disappointed. So many hours were spent figuring out how to get each ending, and hours wasted trying to figure out how to save your one Bro in the game only to learn it is impossible. Another nitpick I have to add is that you are locked out of getting the best ending on your first playthrough. You can save Psyme but the way to save the human chick only unlocks after you've already beaten the game once.
