I generally do search for cheats, but only when I get bored of the game. Ok so its the easy way out, but when you've had enough, you had enough!

I can't just walk away. I have to see how things end y'know? I get into games and I won't eat, drink or bathe until victory is mine. Usually. Sometimes I bathe.

Mostly get pissed off and not want to play anymore. But I usually end up looking for cheats in the end.

When I can't beat a game...I watch a movie, then try again...And then if that doesn't help, I scream into a pillow and then look for cheats.Yup, that's about it.

Haha, I go to sleep, take a shower, do some work, or whatever to take my mind off it and come back later. I've never met an instance where that hasn't worked for me (though, admittedly, I haven't really gone out LOOKING for challenging games. Don't even ask about Ninja Gaiden or whatever. I just play whatever looks fun).

Get on the computer and figure out a way to beat the game or level by looking at cheats or walkthroughs

I usually get fustrated and bored and turn it off and not play on it untill i get really bored and go back on it and either some how be good at it or just go in circles of getting annoyed at it then getting bored and not playing on it.. i still havn't completed alot of games like final fantasy 7 witch i should really turn off right now :P

I am assuming that this question is for RPGs more than other type of genre in the GBA because other than RPGs, all other games are way to easy (even RPGs are easy sometimes).I do not like to power level and I don't do it unless it is highly necessary (only in Final Fantasy II I power leveled but I do not know why I loved power leveling in that game so much) rather than power leveling, I stack plenty of items and probably end up without a penny but items in RPGs are the cheap way of victory...ALWAYS.Why are items cheap? Because games give you money just because you play it (fight battles for example) which in theory means you already got items, and items are more useful than healing magic most of the times. There are even games where items are Magic themselves like Legend of Dragoon but that game is not of this forum.

I follow the old saying "If you don't Succeed, Try, Try again."Because, I don't give up easily in a game. Especially Mario Golf (GBC), which I have been trying to beat that game for 10 years. :schmoll:

I either give up or keep trying to the point I'm psychotically frustrated.Right now I'm stuck on that damn thief boss in Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga. He's such a pain in the ass.

That rarely ever happened to me, since I would get walkthroughs and cheats for every one of my games whenever I needed them. I've only gotten stuck a couple times in my handheld gaming life...

Usually put it down for a long long time, then pick it up, and suddenly I can beat it. WTF? Ever have that? Like suddenly it's easy.

I do the same thing. I put it away for about an week and then I try again and usualy I beat it then or I come to another part that is troubleing me again :D

I cannot remember a time when i could not be a game. Almost all the games i play come with difficulties, so its impossible to lose, really. If i did get stuck, I would definitely start over first before i began cheating.
