water boy Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 um, yeah. Anyway, I won this Best Buy gift card for 15 bucks, and I thought I'd spend it on a GBA game, since I only have 2 games for it. And I didn't have any of the Super Mario series, (and what's a gameboy without mario?) I thought I'd by one of those. I just figured out that there's about 5 different Mario games, and I'm a bit confused. Can anybody reccomend any? Can you give me info about it? Thanks in advance.

Captain Keyes Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 I once played a little bit of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and it was pretty good. It looks really childish, but if you're into Mario and RPGs then you should give it a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintdave Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 These are the only 3 I could find, there are different genre's too, like karting, tennis, golf etc. These are good links which will give you alot of info on the games also. I did have all 3 of these and they are very good. Super Mario Advance Super Mario Advance 2 I couldn't find the 3rd one. Super Mario Advance 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
water boy Posted September 11, 2005 Author Share Posted September 11, 2005 hmmm... thx for the info. Which one is the most "classic"? aka retro, old school, ancient, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaosAlert Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 The third Super Mario Advance title - Yoshi's Island. Other Mario titles, not yet mentioned... Mario Kart: Super Circuit Mario Party Advance Mario Pinball Mario Vs Donkey Kong ...oh, and that old classic Mario Bros. game that Nintendo decided to overprice... -_- But yeah, if you like RPGs, then Mario & Luigi: SS is a brilliant title. Mario Kart, very good if you enjoy the series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalpura Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 I'd go for Super Mario World (Advance 2) and Mario Bros. 3 (Advance 4), they are the two best Mario games ever. I loved them on SNES, and I love them even more being able to take them with me. If you like SMW, you'll probably like Yoshi's Island as well, which is SMW2 and Avcance 5 I think. Great games. I'd probably pass on Super Mario Advance. I'd never played it before I bought the GBA game, and it's short lived. And Mario and Luigi is decent. I'm not much of an RPG fan, but that was good fun. Oh, and ChaosAlert I agree with you on the overpriced thing. I bought my GBA games second hand, for the price they are here new I could buy a SNES system with those games; or a DS game. Ridiculous.

water boy Posted September 11, 2005 Author Share Posted September 11, 2005 (edited) Hmm, thanks for the info, everyone. I've narrowed it down to 2 and 4. Which one is gives you longer gameplay? I don't want to beat it in a day Edited September 11, 2005 by water boy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaosAlert Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 SMA2 has a longer lifespan, which include secret levels (needed for full completion), Yoshi coin collecting... Of course, those are optional. SMA4 however... while shorter (imo), is MUCH better in terms of gameplay, and some of the levels are brilliant. The final ship levels on each world alone, is just worth it to buy this game. Plus... it has the awesome racoon suit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
water boy Posted September 11, 2005 Author Share Posted September 11, 2005 (edited) Plus... it has the awesome racoon suit. OMG It'S teh holy RaCooN SuIt!11!!!! After consideration, I've decided to but mario advance 4. Thanks everyone for your help. You're all on my respect list. This can be locked open for discussion now.

darthYENIK Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 I think it should stay open to further discuss these games. I have SMA2, I can play that game over and over. Anyway, if you really want a mario game, just get super mario bros. It's the classic that started it all, and it's on GBA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
