I really enjoyed this game because I've played the second version and liked it. I also liked it because it's a great overall DS game.

Dual Strike is probabbly the best in the series. It features what the second lacked, and abundance of new units and c.o.'s. The first was great. I found the second more of a remake of the original than another in the series. But Dual Strike is amazing, tons of new units and ways to fight. It utilizes the DS well, using the top screen to display unit and terrain info, and the bottom is the battlefield. Using the touch screen and stylus to edit maps is an ingenious idea. The only real problem is that you can still only have three custom maps.

A solid game with great replay value

If your a fan of stragity games, look no further. Advance Wars: Dual Strike has some good solid gameplay while having more than enough content to keep you occupied for a long while.

Pros:
Many maps and gameplay options lead to long replay value.
New units, maps, COs, gameplay modes.
Good selection of music.

Cons:
Campain can be fustrating, if you get stuck, you can't continue.

Solid entry in the series

This installment in the Advance Wars series might disappoint some because it's mainly more of the same, but when the original was fantastic that's not really a bad thing. The AI and campaign story have been much improved along with some other minor tweaks. Be sure to look at the clock when playing this game, because it still makes the hours flow away frighteningly fast!

One the best strategy games for Gameboy

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.

(Almost) Perfect!

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...

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.
