Nintendo's hot new Game Boy Advance has hit the streets. Check out what the system has lined up for games and decide which ones to slag and which ones to bag from the first batch of titles.

The wait has ended, the rumors are over and all that's left is to get your butt down to the store. Nintendo's Game Boy Advance (GBA) is out and now the time has come to make up your mind. Which brand new games are you gonna get?

Kidzworld is here to help! We have the 411 on some of the hottest and weakest games for Nintendo's new kick-butt handheld:

1

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2

Monster skateboarding action, tiny little GBA. I don't know how they packed this much fun into a game this small but it's perfect. Smooth graphics, rockin' sound and serious Hawkster action earn this title two big, furry thumbs up from Gary.

F-Zero: Maximum Velocity

F-Zero is all about high-speed racing action in the far future. Originally for the Super Nintendo, F-Zero turbo boosted it's way across finish lines for years and now it's blazing it's way onto a handheld near you. Hang on tight, you're in for a fast ride. Just turn the sound off or it'll drive you bananas.

Ready 2 Rumble Boxing: Round 2

The big bad bruiser is back to rock the ring - or not. The game designers must've worn out their brain cells making the pretty graphics cuz everything else is hurtin'. The sound is fuzzy, the controls are like getting punched in the head and there's no multiplayer. Ugh. Send this bad boy back to the dressing room.

Super Mario Advance

Mario is back in an oldschool Super Mario 2 style game. Pull up roots, pick up bad guys, throw bombs and solve puzzles galore to defeat Bowser and his minions. It's a little weak in the tunes but it's classic Mario adventure.

    The first game came out in 1991  ;) Anyway, I love Sonic! I stink at the games though lol My favorite characters are Knuckles and Charmy And I agree that this is the best single-player game ever!

    At least you aren't restricted to TTC/or be only able to try the 3-day trial.  We're actually very lucky now; nonmembers don't give Disney a lick of money. I think Toontown is very different from Club Penguin.  It has a full plot and it's 3-Dimensional.  Also, you don't really do all that much in Club Penguin other than chat and do some mini-missions.  Also, the games were targeted to a different audience... and I feel that Toontown has more memories than Club Penguin; though that may be a bit biased as I don't really have any friends on Club Penguin (LOL), don't really play anymore anyway.

    It's like club penguin, I've played it before and you have to pay for almost everything.
