What an amazing handheld the GBA was. I think it was the first Nintendo gaming machine I ever purchased on my own. I've also been on a GBA game collecting spree lately. Recently bought Sigma Star Saga, Onimusha Tactics and some Repro carts.

I had a subscription for 2 years. It was always so exciting when it arrived in the mail. I got the first subscription as part of a promotion for Donkey Kong Country 2.

I had to collect several Diddy Kong head tokens on the sides of cereal boxes and send them in to quality for the subscription. I ate a lot of Cheerios but it was worth it.

I think my parents kindly renewed it for me after the first year. Oh, and the posters were great but I never removed them.

I really wanted the complete package for this one as the game looks beautiful. But having missed out on the Special Edition (once again, thanks Nintendo) combined with the localization changes and price of Revelations kinda killed it for me. I'm going to pass on it for now at least.

I would like the next installment to have a different gameplay style. Maybe a 3D-styled game with a battle system similar to the Dissidia games.

I agree that "miracles" were indeed made in the creation of this game with regard to the characters, but as I mostly play Smash Bros alone, this was the least engaging single player Smash game for me (not counting the first one).

A new melee-styled adventure mode would have gone a long way. Smash Run is probably my favorite mode this gen, but once I got the Wii U version, I completely stopped playing it on 3DS.
