Despite that it came out a few years ago it's still a fun game to play for GBA Despite it's limits you have to understand what hardware the GBA has which is an advanced 32bit version of the SNES hardware which is still more powerful then all the hardware combined that sent the space shuttles to the Moon so lets not gripe on the hardware side but this version of Sim City plays ok but i would not give it to the kids they might get frustrated i am 26 years old and had a time with it at first till i got use to the controls i rank it with Sim City DS which i also give a 4star rating over all good to have in your collection if you like the Sim City games and not the crappy Sim series of games

STICK WITH THE COMPUTER!

Ok this one was ok but it takes along time to scroll and where have the cars gone? Very tedious disasters such as the earthquake, screen shakes a little and that's it! ANd no highways or signs, and when you build things it gets this stupid "Loding" screen and what the heck where they trying to tell with the bumble bee? Also there is not much fun in it and the menu music sucks. Take a PC or Mac version of this, they are much better.

I Expected ALOT MORE

This game sucks I Havent even bought this game but my cousin did and when he came over I tried it, Its THE crappiest game ever. When ever you have a fire in your city you can only put a limited amount of firefighters on the scene(about 10)and when an alien attacks your town (how stupid is that!) You can only put about 8 firefighters and cops are limited to!+ You start with about 15000 (not alot)

The wost game ever!!!!!!!!!!!!

I reccomend the sims buting out or the urbz. its very hard to get money and you'll have to know what industral, commercial, and industerial- boring. This is supposed to be a game... not homework. I'm her daughter, by the way.

The worst game i ever played on the back it shows these tall buildings and even when i zoom in the buildings are blue and green squares. i hate this game. The only thing i liked was destroying the town (because it was so stupid).

Shall I compare SimCity 2000 on GBA to a summer's day ? NO!!

This game is bull. I give almost all my games some sympathy (see Hulk on GBA review "Show Me the Green"- that game rocks!!) but not this one. This is the worst excuse for a Maxis game on this planet. (I love all Sim games except this one.) All you do is build a city, but unlike other Sim games, you get no cash, so within three game years you're impeached or your city is in ruins. It's very impossible to lead a succesful city in this game. Even the scenarios start out with something bad happening. The only use for this stinking game is to throw it on the wall or take it apart and see what is inside the cartridge. Places like Wal-Mart jack up the price saying it is an amazing game. I got it for about $39.99, which the cashier said was mostly giving it away, compared to how famous it is. It sucks, mostly - that's what I've been saying for this whole thing. A review by Ben9er - they won't let kids have review names.

- yawn - so boring

this game stinks! all you do is make a city, something happens to it. Then you fix it agin, agin, agin, and agin. I say dont waste your money on this silly game. This game STINKS!!!!
on the star rating it said i had to give it a star. I would tell you it has 0 stars for fun and 0 stars for the overall game. I suggest "SIMS BUSTIN' OUT" and "URBS SIMS IN THE CITY" both rated "E"

Good - but not that Good

This game looks great on the GBA but it gets a little frustrating trying to run your SIM CITY with the GBA controls. Though this game still gets addicting expect frustration with getting use to the controls.

Not worth the money!

This Game is glitchy and slow making movement of the camera very hard. Wierd controls and layout. Not nearly as good as the origanal!
