"NEW MARIO PLEASE"

I hated it how nintendo didn't bring out a brand new mario game for GBA.Mario advance is just a 15 year old port of Mario 2 and Mario Advance 2 is just a port of Mario World on the SNES.Although these games are good,very good in fact but why don't nintendo make a fresh new one for GBA.

sorry to break it to you dringo but doom is a very classic and old pc game and it is not 3d (yes thats right, if you don't belive me do some research) its actually 2.5d. and besides look carefull at the enemies they are actually flat, not 3d.

And don't treat Bit as a measure of a consoles ability yes teh GBA is 32 bit but it hasn't a high powerd graphics chip.

Well it hasn't exactly sold many since then, only a further 100,000 infact.

Besides, say you have placed bets on two horses, 1 certain to win no matter what, and one that will have to be fairly lucky to get to second place, let alone first, which one would you spend more time training?

If the next GB was 64 bit it still probably wouldnt be able to handle N64 games as now even though the GBA is 32 bit it can't handle PlayStation games.

You cant have 3 D games on the GBA 'cos of its size and because the screen isnt powerful enogh to show 3 D graphics.

I can see why your name is maths!!

Well if the gamecube is struggling then why has it sold over 500,000 units in the first week of sale.Thats almost DOUBLE the amont of X-boxes andand even MORE THAN the ps2.

I agree that the GBA just isn't powerfull enough to handle a 64-bit game like Mario 64. A 64-bit GameBoy (probably the next in the series) would be capable of doing so, and with the console there's also the possibillity of a Mario 64 sequel on the same console!!

I have posted my idea for a 64-bit 'GameBoy MD' in the 'Game Ideas and Retro Games forum', if you want to see it.

Really they are Demos! Showing that the power of the GBA is More or equal to the Snes!

well a conversion of mario 64 would be good, although the gba does not have the power they could remove alot of the textures etc. it would be a very good game especially if its portable.
