the best games for the gba now are tony hawks pro skater 2, rayman and castlevania.
Dont get mario advance coz its complete ballix.
for the other games have a look in the buy and sell ive found plenty of good stuff there and im sure theyll have what ur looking 4.

I wouldn't rate Rayman that highly - it looks fab but doesn't play spectacularly well, imo.

Castlevania and Tony Hawks are fantastic, and you can't go wrong with Konami Krazy Racers and Bomberman Advance.

Mario Kart: Super Circuit is out in later September, and it rules - I've been playing it all weekend. Not the huge leap over Krazy Racers everyone seems to expect, but still a damn good game.

Try Game Exchange or whatever it's called on Talbot St. for old games.

And make sure you get Zelda - Link's Awakening

Got mine last week and I've been playing castlevania like a champion (that is of course when I have the optimum lighting, planets in alignement) highly addictive gameplay, the DSS system adds alot to the game.

Probably buy bomberman next, although Im hoping for a Zelda game on the horizon, what say you Shinji?

I didn't like Tony Hawks that much. Its a case of same old, same old.

Konami Krazy Racers is better than the SNES Mario Kart in my opinion, though I've yet to play the Super Circuit

F-Zero and Castlevania are both great as well.

For my own Gameboy Advance, I got:

GBA Games:
Mario Advance
Konami Krazy Racers
Rayman

GBC Games:
Tetris DX
Star Wars Episode 1: Obi Wan's Adventures

GB Games:
Tetris (original version)

All of them are great fun in my opinion (particularly the top 2 there) - except for the Obi Wan one which sucks big-time... oh, and I just got the original Tetris for ... well- sentimental reasons, I guess

- it doesn't seem to be saving the scoreboard correctly for some reason - all the other games are saving data fine.

As to where to get Tetris, there's a shop on Talbot Street, under the railway bridge (I think) that does old GB games... that's where I got mine.

Can't wait to get my hands on the Street Fighter games when the come out on GBA!

Tony Hawk's rules!

I think Street Fighter Alpha 3 is coming out in October.

Castlevania and Tony Hawks are both excellent.
I played Mario Kart head to head with a mate of mine on the train to cork last friday and had a great laugh. It's good fun two player - no idea what it's like one player.

ne1 know when the next zelda game is out???

Bomberman is excellent if you have friends. The multiplayer game is brilliant.

I'm more looking forward to the new games that are made rather than just the conversions of snes games. Especially given the cost of them.
