About this product

Product Information

After proliferating on PCs and conquering the consoles, the Sims bust out in this first portable version of Maxis' popular people simulator. Fans should feel at home with vital Sims gameplay elements, such as the ability to design custom characters and the responsibility for seeing that their basic daily needs are met. A few important changes have been made, however, as the series moves from monitors and TV sets to the small screens of the Game Boy Advance.<br><br>The control scheme in this portable version has been designed from scratch, to best match the GBA's button layout. One big difference in controlling the game concerns the way players move their Sims from place to place. For the first time in any Sims game, players take direct, driving control of their characters, instead of click-queuing a string of actions for Sims to follow in turn. <br><br>Connectivity is another important feature of this version of The Sims. Properly equipped Nintendophiles will be able to transfer their GameCube Bustin' Out characters to the GBA for some on-the-go development and needs-meeting, then send them back home to the GameCube, improved and refreshed. Connecting the GBA Sims also unlocks a money-making mini-game on the GameCube, and a "hidden" level in the portable version. Certain character-based objects can be traded between two linked GBA Sims Bustin' Out players.<br><br>More similar to the console than the home computer versions of the game, The Sims Bustin' Out focuses on a single character who moves through a loosely scripted storyline. Player characters begin the game living in a barn, so there's nowhere to go but up. As they develop skills and meet certain goals, characters can unlock useful objects, move into nicer homes, and improve their lifestyles as players see fit.

    Everything was perfect and as described. The case was in great condition, nothing was broken or damaged. Seller communication was excellent. Everything appeared as it should've, and it was a great price when everything is said and done. (Also, shipping was amazing, extra wrapped in bubble wrap and all)

    The shipping came on time, Was packaged really well a little to well, it came with everything as it was described but the controller was a small Chinese knockoff so that was disappointing, the price was really good but to much shipping price was a little to much but 9/10 it was advertised really well and have had no problems.

    Very positive experience! Not only did I surprisingly receive the 3DS on the earliest expected delivery date, it was packaged very safely with loads of bubble wrap on each individual item. It was also exactly as advertised, and with the included games this was definitely a high value purchase! Would definitely buy again from this seller!
