So i recently borrowed my brother's Golden Sun: The Lost Age and that was the most fun I've ever had on a portable gaming device. It took me over 40 hours to beat that little game. Any other rpgs that are similar? All I can think of is FF Chronicles but that's $40!

Golden sun was crap IMO, so were Sword of Mana and FF Tactics Advance. I was inspired by absolutely nothing in these games, and the gameplay was not very fun.

Fire Emblem is good, though much more strategy than rpg. I'm playing Tactics Ogre (also mostly strategy) now and it seems like what FFTA "should" have been.

I was trying to figure out what you were talking about with FF Chronicles, but I realize you probably meant FF Crystal Chronicles, right? Don't you need a Gamecube for that too?

What did you guys like about Golden Sun? Story? Gameplay? They both seemed really crappy to me. :( Gameplay didn't keep me coming back for more, and the story was dopey and flat.

When I think of RPGs on GBA, this is what comes to mind:
Golden Sun
Golden Sun: TLA
Final Fantasy Tactics Advance
Lufia: Runes of Lore
Lunar Legends (Basically a port of Lunar: Silver Star Story on PS1, highly recommended)

There are a couple more, but their names escape me.
