Everything controls well, the graphics are of the highest GBA quality, and the story is engaging. [Fall 2003, p.39]- Pocket Games

The new weather system and extended map, like the radio and real-time clock of Gold and Silver, are features that make the Pokemon world so much more real. [Summer 2003, p.36]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
The 3D engine runs smoothly, mimicking the look and feel of the GC game while maintaining its tight controls. [Spring 2003, p.39]- Pocket Games

Though the gameplay gets somewhat repetitive (kill bad guys, find key to open door, repeat), it's fun enough for players who want to tear through it in a day. [Fall 2003, p.42]- Pocket Games

- Critic Score
Despite its small stature, the game packs more punch than many brawlers 10 times its size. [Summer 2002, p.32]- Pocket Games

The best home conversion yet, better than the Sega CD version, and possibly the arcade. [Winter 2001, p.50]- Pocket Games

- Critic Score
Some games stand out from a genre solely because of a single game mechanic, and Ninja Five-O is one of them. [Fall 2003, p.50]- Pocket Games

- Critic Score
If they would have included multiplayer mode, it would be perfect. [Spring 2005, p.85]- Pocket Games

It rocks. Grab three friends (who aren't very good at FPS games), link up, and blow them away. [Spring 2002, p.32]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
The racing action is smooth, speedy and about as realistic as you can get with a game featuring time-travelling punks racing each other. [Summer 2003, p.44]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
It's meant for the hardcore Yu-Gi-Oh! players. [Spring 2003, p.42]- Pocket Games

- Critic Score
Better than most platformers out there...The only beef we have with this title is that it's too dang short. [Spring 2003, p.35]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
Less mindless than a typical Mario game, but still full of action. May be too challenging for young players. [Summer 2004, p.29]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
Visiting hot springs, betting on the horses, and sweet-talking the locals, this is much more than just a farming game. [Spring 2004, p.29]- Pocket Games

Even fans of old-school RPGs will find themselves with a nagging sense of deja-vu. Disappointing. [Summer 2002, p.22]- Pocket Games

The quirky and unique game demands to be played and enjoyed by the masses. [Winter 2002, p.36]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
Extremely polished from start to finish, and a worthy addition to any FPS fan's game library. [Spring 2002, p.38]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
It's not exactly action-packed, but the slow pace of Broken Sword is paid for with great puzzles and a well-thought out plot. [Summer 2002, p.38]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
EX2 takes all of the characters, attacks, and special moves you'd find in an arcade KOF game and crams them into the GBA. [Spring 2004, p.43]- Pocket Games

All eight games play like they ought to. This compilation is an amazing game. [Fall 2003, p.42]- Pocket Games
-

Exposes the likes of "Mortal Kombat Advance" for the shallow, poorly balanced rush-jobs they so obviously are. [Summer 2002, p.22]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
Great handling, great tunes, and really tough challenges. What more can you ask for from a driving title? Not much. [Fall 2003, p.52]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
A great action game with multiplayer modes and a great connectivity bonus for those the GC version of "Rising Sun." [Spring 2004, p.32]- Pocket Games

Even considering the mediocrity of Pac-Attack, the other three games included in Pac-Man Collection prove that stellar gameplay can (and does) transcend all issues of graphics, sound, and time. [Winter 2001, p.44]- Pocket Games
-
- Critic Score
This is how to do a rerelease of a classic, with tons of extras and enhancements. [Spring 2005, p.70]- Pocket Games

- Critic Score
This is a love-it-or-hate-it game, but fans of the original or anyone looking for a leisurely paced game where death is impossible can't go wrong. [Spring 2004, p.36]- Pocket Games
