Ahhh, Nintendo!
Has the mighty N, finally answered our gaming prayers with the GBA? Will the unstoppable combination of Nintendo and Sega games on the same console mean that by the time Game Cube arrives, we'll all be stood in the queue at midnight!
Are you all looking forward to te greatest games ever on a handheld system?
Has the mantle of 2D gaming now been firmly handed to the mighty N?

If you aska me? Itsa YES! <IMG SRC="smilies/smirk.gif" border="0">

Well they still have giants Sony and Microsoft to defeat. I don't know about you but I think that the big 'N' is kinda a David vs. Goliath story at this point, I hope they can pull ahead though.

As far as the handheld market, everyone other than N might as well forget it... as far home systems, I'd like Gamecube to be the winner of the upcoming console war, but as long as N is still broken up with Squaresoft, I can't be partial to Gamecube. It's unfortunate, but N does seem to finally have its act together again.

I think it is, the NGPC is one of the best handhelds (THE best <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">). But since there are not comming much more games for it the GBA will be a great handheld to get. Personally I am waiting for Breath of Fire and Mariokart to comeout in english. Then I think ill get the GBA <IMG SRC="smilies/drool.gif" border="0">

SamuraiX,
Well they have the games line up to do it!
So lets hope so.

Riotoftheblood,
Square are trying to get back into bed with Nintendo, if Nintendo will let them, then we may yet see "Secret of Mana Advance"!

Koolking,
Bah, humbug!

Chohan,
Yeah, thats what the GBA will have over every other handheld ever released! Not only will it have the in-house games that you knw and love! With Mario Kart being a perfect example, but it'll have the 3rd party developers falling over themselves to make games for it!
Hmmmmm, Breath of Fire!

GBA is the answer to a midgets prayers. I don't know about anyone else, but if your hands are any bigger than those of an eight year old, playing action games is hard as hell. Slow paced games like RPG's will be ok, but I am having a hard time beating Castleania because my hands keep cramping up. It took me hella forever to beat that giant goat god Aldremeich. Maybe someone will develop a supergameboy advance. Ahh, to play Castlevania and Tactics Ogre on the TV with a GC controller....... <IMG SRC="smilies/drool2.gif" border="0">
