List of Games You've Beaten 2026

Just Finished: Advance Wars 1 + 2 Re-Boot Camp (Switch)

I played Advance Wars Dual Strike on the DS way back in the day and enjoyed. I was very excited when Nintendo announced this game which meant I could experience both GBA Advance Wars games in one package. The games are simple on the surface but the strategy required to be successful is deep and challenging. I played the game almost exclusively in handheld mode. I think the game does a good job making war seem bright, colorful, and even kid friendly. I did not mind the art style. I only wish there were more animated cutscenes and voice acting. The game is very addicting. I 100% completed both campaigns. Each campaign clocked in at more than 40 hours for me. I've spent about 100 hours with the game total. This is my most played Switch game, surpassing BOTW. I enjoyed AW 2 campaign a bit more because it allowed you to take control of the different armies to take on the Black Hole Army. Overall though, I wish the sequel showed more evolved gameplay mechanics. I haven't really tried the multiplayer. Sometime the game can feel like a grind or a slog but that is rare. This is my favorite strategy franchise and I hope we will get a new original entry soon. I will likely go back and play the DS game Days of Ruin if I can track down a copy. I still don't forgive Nintendo for delaying this game a year because Russia invaded Ukraine. That being said Slava Ukraini! Fuck Putin!

Score: 8/10
