The first in a long line of great GBA stategy games. 1
I actually received Advance Wars by chance on one Christmas. My aunt and uncle have a tendency of buying me random GBA games without knowing what they are, and I recieved this with less than enthusiastic response. I mean, really, how good can a GBA strategy game really be?

A legend in its spare time. 0
If you're even the remotest fan of turn-based strategy (or even tabletop strategy wargames, for that matter), this is a must-buy.
