Many appreciate the strategic depth and nostalgic appeal, finding the game fun and enjoyable for both newcomers and longtime fans. A common concern, however, centers on the game's price point.

    Good remake of these awesome games, really enjoy being able to experience these again on a newer system. I played a lot of Advance Wars 2 on my GBA as a kid and I had missed it for sure.

    Old strategy game remade new. Just how I remembered. Endless amount of play time and it’s a 2 in one game so even more play time. Great game. Only grip is that half way into the first game, gets hard fast. Harder then i remembered in the past. Just means you have to learn to play better. Def worth the pick up.

    This is a reboot of a game from the Gameboy advanced. If you enjoyed it then you will most likely enjoy it now. I myself missed this turn based style game and I’m glad it’s here again. My only gripe is the seeming inescapable tutorials and cutscenes but it gives it charm. After a lengthy delay in production it was finally released. The reason for delay is not without some irony as the producer was based on Ukraine and obviously had some issues releasing a game in 2022. Anyways, overall great game and if you enjoyed it once, I would say you’re likely to enjoy this again.

    Fresh coat of paint? Perfect excuse to return

    The game is a re-make of some of the best turn-based strategy games of all time. The simplicity of the game is where it shines with only a handful of units, but with near-infinite combinations and deployability due to the map-maker and local and online multiplayer. The graphical upgrade is a welcomed addition and added voice-acting is a nice touch. Overall, although it a re-make of 2 GBA titles, the fresh coat of paint makes the game feel fresh and is a perfect excuse to return to this incredible tactical gem.

    Very enjoyable turn-based battle game. The animations are high quality, the storyline is fun to play through, the multiplayer options add continued playability and variety, and the combination of 1 and 2 into a single game is great. The only annoyance is not being able to skip theough dialogue if replaying a mission and instead having to continually click through to proceed to the action.

    I’m glad they actually got over the war going on in Europe and Asia and finally released this sucker. Oddly enough, I don’t feel inspired to go to war whatsoever even after playing a game about war.

    Lots of remakes on all systems as many devs get a grasp of Unreal Engine 5. Good choice for strategic game.

    I played the nintendo switch version, many years ago and noted that the N version was on display, during a random trip to Best Buy. It was agrest buy, thw geaphics have been improved, the gameplay is the same but with improved maps and a reward system. This fame can be a great way to let tome pass by if youre waiting ar the airport or a aituation qhere yoi need t steaingn a couplw of hours

    This game is definitely one of my favorite games on the switch right now. The gameplay is very addicting, and turn based games have always been some of my favorite types of games. Sadly this games release date kept getting pushed back, but the wait was definitely worth it. If you enjoy turn based strategy games, I highly recommend this game!

    I never got to play these (came in with the DS game), but these are really nicely done. Its too bad they released it at such an inopportune time (so close to Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.)

    Great game as this is not really rpg game. It’s a “strategy game” that you have to control you units army how to defeat enemies. Best of all, they are the remakes of GBA games! The games get harder in each time you progress the story. Overall, this game is a-must-have for those who like strategy game fans.
