 tactical crack February 13, 2008
I first discovered the advance wars series on the gba....and have been playing each game in the series ever since. All the old favorites have returned, including Andy and Sami, and also some new faces. added highlights include dual screen battles (sometimes you don't actually control the top screen's troops) and more CO's, double CO powers, and more maps and vehicles types.
Even with all these added improvements....the gameplay itself is very balanced. There are times though, where the enemy will use a double CO power to totally turn the tide against you, but you are also free to do the same.
After beating the campaign mode, you can play battle mode, make your own maps, unlock Hard Campaign, and trade maps with other players. the DS version also includes the ability to play multiplayer with one DS and one cartridge, just as the gba versions allowed.
This is one of my favorite games, and has sucked more free time from my bones than any other game in recent memory.
 (Almost) Perfect! November 26, 2007
A beautiful strategy game for DS players who like to think! One of the best games to come out for the system. I only wish it used WI-Fi...

One the best strategy games for Gameboy November 17, 2007
Advance Wars - Dual Strike is the 3rd Advance Wars title available and the first on the Nintendo DS platform. Advance Wars is a turn-based strategy war game. Each player takes turns moving and attacking with their game pieces, which could be soldiers, anti-air, tanks, planes, and ships. Advance Wars is very fun in a sense that it plays similar to a game of chess. You must strategize what your oppenent might do next. The campaign mode is very long and very challenging. One thing I didn't like about the game is how fast it ramps up the difficulty. The beginning levels are very easy but it quickly becomes very hard and you'll find yourself wanting to quit playing on many tough fights. I also really enjoyed the multiplayer aspect - if you know someone with a DS you can play against them with just 1 cart. This added alot of replay value for me. Overall I found Advance Wars - Dual Strike to be a very fun turn based strategy game and if you enjoy them you should pick it up.

this game is an extrememly addictive game.i was lucky when i saw it at a gamestop since this game is very hard to find now. i bought it used. i have to agree with all of the reviews out there saying this game is very good. i have to say in my opinion this is an extremely GREAT game, although i have to warn you the game gets VERY HARD so beware. but that wont be a problem for those who like challenges in a game. overall i cant stress how much fun you will have with this game so if you find it at a store DO NOT hesitate to get it...its that good. for a used one you can probably pay a good $35ish but for a new one you will probably have to dig in to your pocket for a good $50>. so in closing just go out and get this game its great for adults(like me) or for kids( although kids will seem to get bored with it since it does get hard).
