Re: Golden Sun: Dark Dawn (U) | November 29th, 2010

you seem to have missed the fact that it's about dumping it from the actual cartdige, cause I don't understand how you could help with that over the internet

There are 2 games for the GBA:
-Golden sun (sometimes called The Broken Seal to distinguish it from the sequel)
-Golden Sun: The Lost Age

They were originally meant to be one game, but they needed way more space than a GBA rom could offer.
So they explain one story and are rather confusing if not played one after another, since TLA starts exactly where Broken Seal says "to be continued", but with the amazing twist that you play as the people you believed were the bad guys in the first game.

Dark Dawn, on the other side, plays 30 years after the events of these games, following the kids of the original cast of characters.

Since alot of people haven't played the old games, the creators considered that and built in an encyclopedia that you can open to check the background or story about it from the original games. Like, if someone mentiones a person, you could tocuh that name and it would add info about them to it for you to read in case you are clueless to who it is, but are supposed to know. Am curious how that'll turn out

So you don't really need to play the original games first, to understand what's going on.

But I'd really suggest to anyone to do so. I replayed them like once a year since they came out and they're still my favourite RPGs.

I'm really curious if Dark Dawn is as epic as the originals were, as I can't imagine that o__o

This game is not getting any hot reviews.... but then again, critics are not always right.

 

Re: Golden Sun: Dark Dawn (U) | November 29th, 2010

I saw the IGN review and, frankly a kid could have written such a review without even playing the game.

I mean seriously, they dislike that it's not mostly a grind and that the characters talk too much. We knew 7 years ago that if there was ever a new GS game the characters would talk alot, since the story was really important in the other games too.

The posts there show quite well what I mean.

what a bunch of Bumbs, they don't know an awseome game when they see it, golden sun gba games were the best, maybe lot of text but its part of the story, in rpg story plot, hints and such matter, they don't know what their talking about.

 

Re: Golden Sun: Dark Dawn (U) | November 29th, 2010

i've never played a golden sun game but from what i can tell everybody loves them XD

 

Re: Golden Sun: Dark Dawn (U) | November 29th, 2010

any progress?

 

Re: Golden Sun: Dark Dawn (U) | November 29th, 2010

I love this game series(can't say that enough) but if I were to nitpick I can understand the too much text thing to be a turn-off for the game. I have been playing the Japanese version of this one and yeah like the other two it is text heavy and to say that gives it a deeper story is a meh moment. The reason I say that is sometimes it seems like what they are saying can be abridged and it still make sense, you still get the story, keep it deep, and keep you coming back to learn more. It also seems like they could have taken a bit more of a "show don't tell" approach to the game with some of those situations. All in all its a solid game to me staying true to the series (which can be a for better or for worse situation) with a slightly easier difficulty.

 

Looks like it's been dumped

Golden Sun Dark Dawn USA NDS-RobotKillers

 

I already found it on youtube. and here now it works on AK w bypass enabled. hope the patched version is released for the others. Thanks for putting it here.

 

I'm going to have to say the game is great. great gameplay, good graphics (for an NDS game), AWESOME battle gameplay, but very long dialogue. it goes on forever. this is the only drawback
8.5/10 for me

 

I'm having trouble with the "Fireball Psynergy".... how do I get it?

 

The game is just what I expected. hm. hm.

Just started it, let see if I can catch you up before you(or other) solved it.

EDIT:
Ah, just reach that forest.

Spoiler

If you had played previous GS before, basic way to generate new Psynergy is by equipping or Set certain type of Djinn.
To get Fireball psynergy, just Set any of the Mars Djinn, which are Shine or Spark(or Torch) into Matthew.

The Djinn will only be in 'Set' status if there are no red glow surround it.

Karis won't learn it, since she is Wind Adept.

 

thank you for uploading, testing it right now.

 

i think i will play GS2 before its too late...

 

Personally I dont.

I have dual opinions about GS. I loved Book 1 (beated it 100%!) but I hated book 2. I gave up in the game a bit after getting the slow ship.

Come to think about it, what does Dark Dawn remenber more? (I have R4, can't play it yet)

 

I doesn't work on my TTDS with firmware v6.40 :'(.
iluvfupaburgers says that I must 'decrypt' it ???.
What is that?

 

10 hours into the game and I love it. I could cry of joy
