oook that looks sweet but that grafics arnt so hot.

Maybe because it's a remake of a Famicom game, at least I think that's what this game is, judging by the title.

Thanks graphics whore, I'll let them know you wont play an awesomely fun game because it's not up to your "standards of graphical prowess".

Good one.

Hasn't the series always been known as "Famicom Wars"' in Japan?

Not when there's Super Famicom Wars, Gameboy Wars...and Advance Wars. As for the GCN version being titled Advance Wars, well.

(not trying to be mean)

Because no one would know what Famicom is here in the U.S.

OMG CARRIERS! SW00T!

anyone have translations on the CO descriptions?

From Johnnyram @ GAF:

Potential new info gleaned from these pages:
- Official Japanese title seems to be "Famicom Wars DS: Battle of Omega Land".
- Dual screens are used for tag battles, with one CO fighting on each screen. You seem to be able to switch between screens when you wish, depending on your tactical needs.
- Bottom screen is displayed at a weird angle for no apparent reason, as you can't see extra land.
- When you're not playing tag, the top screen is used for info, like missile countdown, unit info, land data etc, and will be displayed continuously while you are moving units. Bottom screen displays map and battles.
- COs have a TAG stat to show how well they work with other COs.
- New units include aircraft carrier and stealth fighter.
- Mode select screen shows: Campaign, trial, free battle, survival and combat, plus the number of medals collected so far.
- Due out this year for 4800 yen (sometime this summer would be nice!)

After reading through this thread I think it's pretty clear that Zombie_killer is the stupidest person on the face of the planet.

If you need more proof, go check the RE4 thread.

Wow, you are out of the loop buddy.

I'm still ever-so-slightly disappointed that the graphics havn't received an upgrade. But in all honesty, it's probably better that way. It means they're concentrating on making the gameplay more awesome than our wildest dreams could speculate.

And I definitely see some new types of units.

Can I get a "hells yeah" for the Aircraft Carrier!

I have the display of signatures turned off because it is a dumb concept and you are dumb if you have one.

I just picked up AW2 for $10 last month and it's reminding me of how freaking addictive this series is. I can't wait for the DS version. I can't imagine a turn based game not having an online mode, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Yes, it's very addictive, but it should also remind you how little the graphics have changed since AW2.

But if this game is online, then they SERIOUSLY need to implement a time limit (that you choose yourself obviously), on turns. Because without that, you could be sitting there for ten minutes not doing anything because the dude you're playing is on the can.

I've played urban squall a bit (it's like a flash version of advance wars), on the internet, and the time limit really works wonders. If Advance Wars doesn't have one I'm not sure I'll be able to play it online. I can also see this game having seriously issues with people just quitting before you capture their hq.

Xiu Xiu

I'm going to die for this game.

Wow. I've heard lots of people says they would die for AW but you're the first who actually has it planned out.
