    Cool video and I love this series. But I have a few corrects.
    1) there was actually 4 games in the GB/GBC series. GB Wars, GB Wars Turbo for original GB, GB Wars 2 is GBC enhanced and GB Wars 3 was GBC only.
    2) GB Wars 3 works with the GB mobile phone adapter for "online" play.
    3) Super Famicom Wars was never released physical but was available for the Nintendo Power distribution system.
    4) Super Famicom BS Ban (Satellaview version) was actually released later and is just a demo version. Which was 4 different maps transmitted at different times.

    Something that I love of super famicon wars are the animation of the units, I love to see the units fight each other whenever I engaged the enemies or they engage me; or when I load an unit into a transport unit, etc. I always hated how they got ride of the fighting animations on the futureinstalments when the enemy engaged you.

    This game is amazing. The whole wars series is great, to be honest. Since Intelligent Systems aren't making a new installment, indie devs made Wargroove, and it's a game you should definitely play if you're a fan of the Wars series.

      Even the Black Sheep Batallion wars was awesome, it's after all the spin-off that introduced me to the wars series and has my favourite Characters from said series in it, in fact, if they use the entirety of Battalion wars cast for an sequel with more tactical options and better game design, i think we would get a masterpiece for Nintendo Intelligence system standards.

      I'm not crazy about the flash animation style of the Reboot Camp remake, but I'm glad it is coming. I just wish there was an option to limit animated segments to unit introductions, misses, critical hits, and key unit deaths (glad the fast forward option exists, but it's still too much to watch every time).

I have a G-pi case and spent a couple hours yesterday getting this translation patch to run on it (I had to set SNES9X 2005 as the emulator - otherwise the text showed up as corrupted).

The closest I have ever found was it being released as one of the Nintendo Power kiosk download stations that you need to install on one of the Nintendo Power cartridges, I have never seen an actual listing of the game sold by itself as a normal SFC cart. Same goes for the final Fire Emblem for the SFC which I have only ever seen pre-installed on brand new Nintendo Power cartridges as a flash memory stored game instead of EPROM I assume.
