Civil war is now loosed upon the nation of Aroldesh as a coup d'etat is staged.
Front Mission 2 is the first 3D title in the strategy/RPG series and the first to hit the Playstation.
An isometric view is used to navigate your Wanzers (mech) on the battlefield.
When the player engages an enemy the view switches to a 3rd-person perspective which shows the results of the battle.
Between missions you can upgrade your Wanzer and talk with NPCs who will move the story forward.
The game features over 30 missions and dozens of skills and weapons to outfit your crew with.
About Nintendo DS
The dual-screen, touch-enabled Nintendo DS (2004) became the best-selling handheld of all time, helped by its huge and genre-diverse library. Cartridge-based DS games have held up well physically over 20 years, and complete-in-box copies of the system's biggest sellers (Nintendogs, Pokémon, Mario Kart) remain very accessible for new collectors starting out.
Gamevaro tracks Front Mission 2089: Border of Madness for Nintendo DS with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Front Mission 2089: Border of Madness to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NDS release dates back to 2008.
