Released for the Game Boy Advance in 2006, Battle B-Daman: Fire Spirits! is a shooter developed by Atlus.

It landed about 5 years into the GBA's life. Other notable GBA releases from 2006 include Mother 3, Rhythm Tengoku and Drill Dozer.

It is part of the B-Daman series; on the GBA you can also try Battle B-Daman. The series also appears on other systems with Super B-Daman: Battle Phoenix 64 (N64). Atlus also made Shin Megami Tensei and Shin Megami Tensei II for the GBA.

This is a solo experience: one player, no waiting on anyone else.

Pick it if…

  • you want to fight, blast and test your reflexes
  • you have time for an evening or two (roughly 1–6 hours to see it through)
  • you've played the GBA hits and want something less obvious

Maybe skip it if…

  • you are not a fan of fast-paced aiming and twitch reflexes
  • you are looking for something to play with friends

What playing Battle B-Daman: Fire Spirits! is like

Shooters are built around aiming and firing, from first-person corridor blasters and light-gun games to run-and-gun stages and multidirectional arcade shooters.

Tip for newcomers: Retro shooters were designed for CRT TVs and original controllers; light-gun games in particular need special hardware or alternative controls on modern screens.
