Nintendo Gaming / lego star wars GBA... any love?

« on: April 05, 2005, 06:18:58 AM »

lego star wars for the ps2 and xbox is getting mad love all over the place in reviews but i can't find anything about the GBA version - anyone played/own it or seen a review of the GBA version (not some old preview).

thanks!

yeah i haven't either - and to be honest i'm not sure i want to.  i hope they make games so you can use it or not depending on how you like to play.  i'm an older gamer and kind of think the thumb thing is pretty corny (it's almost innovation for innovation's sake).  i DO like the touch screen for some things - just not d-pad control.  i'm also dissappointed that there doesn't seem to be ANY good games out except mario - i pretty much just use my bulky new DS to play my old GBA games at the moment...

Nintendo Gaming / noob to DS w/ a couple questions

« on: January 05, 2005, 07:36:12 AM »

take it easy on my i'm new here...  i finally got my hands on a new DS and have a couple quick questions:  first - are there any good games besides mario 64?  second - mario and the metriod demo seem to require the thumbstrap (play just sucks with the d-pad for some reason).  are all DS games going to be like this or are they just trying to push the new functionality for a while?  i'd sure love to choose - since i think i'll way prefer the classic d-pad in most cases...  what upcoming games are we really looking forward to?  any word on a new mario and luigi (great GBA game) or advance wars, fire emblem?  

THANKS!!!

so if only 70% are sold where the hell do i get one?  i can't find anyone who will even admit they will have it in DECEMBER either in my area (northern VA) or online...  anyone know where you can get one at the $149 price (not going to pay 250 on ebay or w/ an amazon merchant).
