RPG games for GBA

[Tailzo]

I've heard about a new GBA RPG with 2 cartridges (dunno the name.) I know about the Tactics ogre RPG, Breeth of Fire 1&2,Golden Sun but.-...... what else? (great RPGs) I want a new RPG! Oh, and what is this 2 cartridge RPG game?

[dalejrfan13]

Golden Sn 2 is coming out, I don't know when though.

[imported_Travis]

I doubt there would be a 2 cat game =/ it would be cool, but too expencive to mass produce unless they were absolutely sure they would make a big profet off it.

those cartridges dont cost that much to make, and they dont exactly need to be careful about the sales of gba games, even the shitty ones sell well, god imagine what a badass rpg game with 2 cartridges would sell...

Golden Sun II is already out in Japan, I believe, so I don't think we'll have to wait too much longer. I do also doubt they would make a two cartridge game. They haven't before. It may be possible that something like the newest GBC Zelda's would be done again, I think they are doing something like that in Golden Sun.

WTF would be the purpose of 2 Carts? 256Mb (32MB) is PLENTY of room for a 2D rpg. ChronoTrigger/FFVI fit onto 32Mb (4MB) cart. GBA Carts are EIGHT times that size.

Golden Sun 2 about October. get BoF and BoF 2 even if you've already played 'em. Get Golden Sun too.

[Anbesol]

golden sun and golden sun 2 pretty much intertwine, golden sun 2 starts where golden sun left off, so theres your 2 cart game

yeah the gba carts are just massive data storage, for their size

however with that advanced data storage capability you would THINK that nintendo would be considerate enough to make a super mario all-stars for the gba rather then charging us all seperately... GRRRRRRRR.....

[Uhkuc]

Well, they make more money that way :laugh

Plus sometimes they dont know what games they are going to release in the "mario advance" series, like it went from SMB2 to SMW (An SNES game (which was later included in All Stars) and now SMW2:YI (Nothing to do with All Stars).

[dorepoll]

2 carts would be pointless

[Uhkuc]

Yeah, I'd like to know what developer needs 512Mb (64MB) for a 2D SNES RPG. Thats SIXTEEN times the size of games like Chrono Trigger and FFVI. They'd have to be insane...

And even if they do, just make that size cart! Why use two carts? Thats insanely expensive.

[Tailzo]

Must have been Golden sun 1 and 2 they talked about then

[Uhkuc]

Yeah, but thats Golden Sun 1 and 2. 2 being a Sequel. Thats like saying Final Fantasy series is a 6 cart, 11 CD, and 1 DVD game (and yes, I'm well aware that the Final Fantasy series doesn't continue like Golden Sun did, but you get my point )

[XX_revolution]

2 carts would not be pointless if the game could not fit on one cart. But whatever.

[Uhkuc]

Name a single 2D Sprite based SNES RPG that needed more then 256Mb (32MB)?

[Anbesol]

2 gba carts = one n64 cart,

actually, 1 gba cart = one n64 cart, however, n64 has made a couple of carts double, like resident evil 2 and zelda: majoras mask, but tahts all...
