Advance wars a must buy

this is a must buy for any gamer.its just great. with a suprisingly addictive story line. this game is not to short. and not to long. although there could of been more to the game its 1 of the best games out there.But i am still dissapointed that nintendo is not takeing advantage of gameboy advances abilities. COME ON NINTENDO I"M WAITING FOR ANOTHER ADVANCED GAME LIKE GOLDEN SUN.

Sturm is king

In Advanced Wars I just can't stop using Sturm in Vs. mode. Even though his power is weaker than the Campaign mode it still weakens the enemy troops that are all bunched up. It would be better if I could control where the meteor lands.
