New: 1060 - Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising (U)

[T-hug]

It's funny how theres hardly anything new in the game, yet it's twice the size of the first one...

MODE 7 you're the best ever thanx you so much!!!!
well with a couple of friends ( 12 exactly ) we are going to do a translation group named " eien no bara"
we specialize in jap to english only and we are gonna rock!!!!
so i would like you to choose our first project.....

Cool! What about the followings:
Tales of the world (2 games)
Zoid Sagas (2 games)
Magical Vacation
All of these rpgs are likely to never be released outside of Japan.

Good luck

i think also The two onepiece games

well kivan if you followed all the "wars" saga
(for people that don't know... advance wars isn't the first title... first than advance wars there were 3 gameboy wars and even a super famicom (snes... but the game camed only in japan!) wars)
you will noticed that all the game aren't much different from each other...
oh and maybe it's only a mine thought but the computer became much more smarter...

nope, you're wrong. advance wars 1 was 64Mbit too. check nintendo's site and you'll see.

thats the eu version
u version is 32m

 

[GBAfreak]

? I don't get it. how can eu version be bigger then the us one? or is it like the first pokemon rom that was 128Mbit? cause the site of nintendo of belgium say that aw1 is 64Mbit.

I'm very confused right now :s

eu has multyple langueage's
german
english
french
spain
ect

 

[Magus]

more language (the eu version is english,french,deuchts the us version only english) means more data
more data means more big

[GBAfreak]

those stupid languages don't take even a little space in that cartridge. remember rayman 3? us version was a few languages, and it was 64Mbit. now the eu version had more than 10 languages, and it's also 64Mbit!

so, if I'm not wrong, the eu aw2 will be 128Mbit? impossible!

 

[FlashAdv]

that depends

i dont realy care

us versions allway's rock except for 1 game cant remember which one.

 

[Magus]

well... means that advance wars didn't reach 64 mbit for little... and the little extra space that were taken by extra language made advance wars reach 64 mbit

 

[GBAfreak]

anyway, you guys in the us are really lucky! we in Europe get it in october

I don't have a flasher(and never will have) and don't play roms(I only test them). so I have to wait for this long! So my summer vacantion will not be as fun as yours. there will be no games to play for me then! golden sun 2 comes out in september, kirby too, and pokemon 25th july. hte only thing I can do now is buy some old games and replay some of the 23 games I have by now

 

[GBAfreak]

well... means that advance wars didn't reach 64 mbit for little... and the little extra space that were taken by extra language made advance wars reach 64 mbit

so that's why we have to pay 50euro(=50 dollars) for our gba games...

I agree with KiVan on this, while it is a good game it's nothing different to Advance Wars 1. AW1 had more cool features in my opinion. You could have a rank and it had 115 new maps, this one has 20 something new maps. only one new unit. some new terrain but that's about it. Nintendo is becoming INCREDIBLY slack!! I don't understand their tactics. They add hardly a thing and slap on 2 to the name. good game but so was AW1, this game doesn't really surpass AW1, in AW1 things were actually new.

 

[ShadowXP]

I totally agree. Hopefully, the campaign will last longer, and hopefully it will be more diffcult. So far I've got S Rank on all the 4 missions I've played.

Atually, ig you have ever played the origional Gameboy Wars, you will find it is incredibly a like to Advance Wars!, biggest changes are the graphics and campain modes but thats really it!

The new campain in AW2 is pretty damn good though.

 

[GBAfreak]

I'm actually starting to hate nintendo! their latest games are bad!!! aw2 is nothing new, sma4 a port again, and the new stuff they add will be terrible! metroid: zero mission will be a remake of metroid1, pokemon pinball looks the same as pokemon pinball for gbc, and I don't think mario golf and tennis will offer something new. even mario and luigi looks awfull to me!

nintendo isn't that original anymore, myiamoto is just getting to old I think.

shadowxp - the time you reach the blue moon zone...
opium - same thing i sayed to kivan (read the reply a little up i'm to lazy to rewrite it! =P)
gbafreak - japan are even more lucky... and for the european... well you could be italian... it would be worse!
(the majority of game don't have italian has selectable language oh and in britany they are testing
the network adapter for ps2... but only in britany!

 

[Smef]

I hope they get harder too... Ive gotten an S on the 1st 9 missions so far (1st try on each and a perfect score on 6 of them)

the reason the EU version might be 64 instead of 32 and it didn't change the size for rayman could be that the added languages just bumped the rom over the 32 marker, and they had to make it 64. With rayma, the rom might have actually been 50megs and the added languadges made it 55 or 60, so it would still be a 64 meg game.
