GBA - Some Tasty New Picks
If you've seen the latest commericals for the GBA then you've seen that they've got some tasty new gaming picks for the Christmas season, and for once there looks like there's some nice picks for the GBA!
Tony Hawk has a new game
I'm guessing it's American Wasteland, Tony Hawk's newest game, now on the GBA. From the commercial I say the game looks pretty sweet for the GBA... then again the previous games looked somewhat interesting as well so if you're a Tony Hawk fan then you might find this little portable to possibly be worth at least glancing at.
A whole new racer
Previous racers on the GBA have been less than sterling. With the exception of Banjo Pilots and possibly Mario Kart for the GBA I can't think of anything that looked even halfway decent for the GBA... until now. Now there's a Need For Speed game coming and it's finally a decent racer from appearances for the GBA. The biggest thing, from the commercial, is the camera angle (behind the car instead of overhead ala Spyhunter which was used for Midnight Club's GBA version). If the rest of the game plays as good as it looks then this might be a racer for your GBA to consider... of course considering the last Need for Speed for the Nintendo DS and PSP looked so nice yet fell so short you have to be abit forgiving of this version since it's probably the only good looking game for the GBA for race fans (so even if it is abit pedestrian in the gameplay at least it's a leap above Midnight Club in terms of graphics and gameplay... then again anything is a leap above Midnight Club in terms of graphics and gameplay so that's not much to say in Need For Speed's defense.)
Final Fantasy IV
You know I love Final Fantasy for the GBA.
I own Final Fantasy Tactics Advance for the GBA, I own Final Fantasy I - II : Dawn of Souls for the GBA... did they put out Final Fantasy III yet? Anyway now I'm looking forward to reviewing Final Fantasy IV for the GBA... which is, what, Final Fantasy from the NES? Final Fantasy II from the NES? One of those.
At least the GBA isn't being left out in terms of noteworthy games for the holiday season, though they do seem to be missing a port of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (though I am digging back in time to review past Harry Potters for the GBA in future reviews). Now all they need to do is bring Final Fantasy to the Nintendo DS (or at least a decent Nintendo 64 era RPG) and I'll be one happy portable owner.
We'll see, we'll see.
