try closer to a few hundred classic games... also, you can store game boy, gameboy color, and game boy advance games on it, so all you really need is one cartridge to hold a bunch of games. if you're a stickler for buying games, you can at least use it to minimize what you have to carry around with you, increasing the portability factor of the gba.

hell, with the software that comes with the stuff you can rip your own roms to do it with.

too bad i spent my money on computer stuff so i have to wait to buy one

Esuohlim I'm tired of Tetris.

And I was going to get Zelda on the Gamecube bonus disc, but since I don't feel like buying another Gamecube to get it, I guess I'll get it for GBA.

Shit, that's like 210 dollars worth of games I'm planning on buying . I'D BETTER JUST GET THEM FOR FREE FOR THE ROM PLAYER

I was talking about buying a used (some chump traded it in for $5 store credit) game from the game store, NOT a new one.

*conforms*
best game to play on GBA: Tetris. If there's any other incarnations of it, get it. There's nothing like a game that's nearly impossible to beat to keep you busy for eternity.

the GBA version of the new Prince of Persia is really fun too.

there, ya happy Hickman?
Dec 24th, 2003 10:20 PM
slain My favorites so far are: FFTA , Golden sun 1 and 2, megaman battle network1 2 and 3, Zelda lttp, Metroid fusion and the BOF series Golden sun is fucking awesome

Emulation isn't widespread enough to do damage to the video game industry.

and if emulation isn't so widespread that it's bad, why are you spreading it
Dec 24th, 2003 09:46 PM
Drev Hate the Pokemon fad, not the Pokemon game. The game kick ass.

The Megaman Battle Network games are an aquired tastes. Personally, I like it. The only fuck-up they've done is pull a pokemon on us by giving us the game in 2 versions, and the forth is doing the same. Still, it's great to play.

BTW, sorry about missing what you posted Esuohlim.
Dec 24th, 2003 05:19 PM
HickMan I don't think this is the direction Milhouse wants this thread to go. So shut up and name some good GBA games for him. Bastards .

TOP 5 IN MY OPINION.

1. METROID FUSION
2. ZELDA
3. FFTA
4. CASTLEVANIA (THE FIRST ONE IS BEST I THINK)
5. DOUBLE DRAGON.

Now shut up, Retro WOman. I AM good!

I wouldn't be suprised to see a nes or snes emulator made for one of them in the near future. That's even more appealing than using it for gba roms actually
there out there somewhere. i look and get back to ya

Nerd It's little fucks like you that are slowly destroying the Video Game industry. If you like the company, if you like the game, then help them by buying it, instead of hurting them by stealing it. Who the fuck can't spend $30 on a game anyway? Stop being a cheap ass and spend the money.
Dec 24th, 2003 02:24 PM
Retro Man i'm sorry.. did i hurt your precious multi billion dollar industry by telling the few people about this?

MY SINCEREST FUCKING APOLOGIES.
Dec 24th, 2003 01:55 PM
Nerd Some people aren't cheap basterds and would rather buy the games from the company then hurt them by playing them without paying. Asshole.
Dec 24th, 2003 01:14 PM
Retro Man don't buy any gameboy advance games.. its a waste of money...

instead, buy this:

lets you play gba roms on your old advance or sp.

with 128, 256, and 512mb capacities, you can keep tons of games on it.

Why didn't you like it? Which one were you playing (Becuase, while I think the second and third ones are pretty good, the first one sucked balls)? Didn't like the chip system? Didn't like the characters? Thought it was stupid? ....What?
Dec 23rd, 2003 10:12 PM
Emu Wario Land 4 isn't that good. It's far too short and far too easy.

Also, stay away from the Phantasy Star collection. Sweet Jesus, I hope the originals weren't as terrible as the gameboy ones were.

Mike P Good
MegaMan Battle Network (considering what it is)
Advance Wars
Kirby: Nightmare in Dreamland (for a revamped port)
Sonic Advance
Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire (It's actually more RPGish than the first two, and don't start bitching simply because it's Pokemon)

Bad
Earthworm Jim (Too damn dark, and they cut stuff out of it)


I know my opinion is worth shit to you, but I gave it anyway.
