Gunstar Super Heroes
Dec 10, 2005
It was difficult to believe that the Game Boy Advance would continue to stand as a “pillar” in Nintendo hardware after the release of the DS. The little handheld hasn’t given up so easily, however, with titles like WarioWare Twisted, Legend of Zelda: Minish Cap, and Sigma Star Saga coming out just this last year. [...]

Mega Man Battle Network 3 White
Nov 9, 2005
When I was standing in line to ride Splash Mountain at Disney Land, a boy suddenly asked what game I was playing on my GBA. Upon telling him “Mega Man Battle Network,” he said, “That’s not the same Mega Man. He’s just not the blue bomber anymore.” And I suppose this Battle Network is a [...]

Klonoa: Empire of Dreams
Sep 22, 2005
