I don't like the 3D art style, but I love Advance Wars, so will probably buy it.

I've only ever played Dual Strike. I found it hard as nails and got a lot of crappy scores until they demoralised me into giving up. I'm tempted to try this, which looks lovely, but - hm.

Nice. Looks like they haven’t messed about with it too much. Definite purchase here.

This was the 'oh you didn't' moment for me. Love me a bit of Advance Wars so I'm day one.

The first two are the best two. I am well up for this! The new art style looks decent too, it's a good adaptation of the original pixel art.

Fantastic to see this series come back. Hope it’s not just a straight remake and we get to see it flexing for a proper sequel. Day 1.

I've always been disappointed each year when a new Advance Wars hasn't been announced. It may be a remaster but it's been so long now and I just know I'll get hopelessly addicted to getting those S ranks.

I already played Advance Wars 1 & 2, hopefully there's a bunch of new levels and it will support level creation/sharing online/online-play. Visually I prefer pixel-art like Wargroove but the 2.5D graphics look ok.

People used to rave about these games back in the day and I never got around to it.

Won't make that mistake this time.

Never played the second I don't think and not sure I completed the first.
Just disappointed with all the art styles for Nintendo's "2D" games

Art style makes sense as a direct progression, but I kind of hate it. But it's still Advance Wars, so the gameplay will be great.

It looks crisp and clean. I think it's fine but it's very conservative, very Nintendo. Same goes for Metroid Dread, neither look bad but when you see what Indie studios are able to put out, you would hope someone in Nintendo's art department would show a bit of flare for once.
