Code: Select all
Plot in short: You are a tactical advisor working for Orange Star, a faction modelled after US. So one day, a neighboring country called Blue Moon(basically Russians) attacked Orange Star for no reason, so the COs and you counter-attacked and fucked them up good. Meanwhile, a Green Earth(Nazi Germany) battalion suddenly come out of nowhere with a massive airforce, led by CO Eagle. He accuses one of your CO, Andy, to have attacked Green Earth earlier. He attacks but nope, anti-air is OP(kinda) so he's fucked. Looking for answer, Orange Star passes by Yellow Comet(Japan) just to also get fucked because their leader/CO Kanbei thinks Orange Star attacked them first. And shit happens and after Orange Star fucked everyone else people found out that the whole thing is a conspiracy, orchestrated by another faction called Black Hole, who wants to conquer your world. So all nations band together and successfully repel the threat. The story involves Orange Star Army's efforts in battling the other countries' armies, where Orange Star commanding officer Andy is accused of attacking the other countries' troops for no reason. The game was critically acclaimed, gaining an average score of 92/100 on Metacritic, and an average score of 93% on GameRankings, the highest for any Game Boy Advance game. It was rated the 26th best game made on a Nintendo System in Nintendo Power's Top 200 Games list.

This game is a decade old. Gameboy Advance now only exists in personal collections, or maybe eBay. No worries though! There are plenty of *cough*emulators*cough* out there for your PC or your phone!
For PC/Mac/Linux, Google one.
For iOS, I reccommend GBA4iOS, if you haven't updated to iOS 8.1.
For Android, there's plenty of them but MyBoy seems pretty good.
Discuss! Who is your fav CO, and what are your strategies? And yes, I also play Advance Wars 2.
I don't have any favs, just so you know. But Andy seems to be the best choice in everything, since he's the all-rounder.
