Gaming When the GBA first came out...

[SuperMarioMaster]

What was the color and game/s that you had? Mine was a clear purple GBA with Super Mario Advance and Sonic Advance. I thought it was the coolest thing ever hearing clear voices, the graphics, sound, and etc. from a Game Boy system. It was like a portable SNES without the X/Y buttons!

My first GBA was an Arctic White along with Golden Sun.

 

[Joktan]

blue sp and lord of the rings two towers, which is still quite a good game.

 

[MFDC12]

I had a White one with... I can't remember my first GBA game.

 

[ThriLL]

Transparent purple GBA with Golden Sun. I still remember the day I got it. Good times..

 

[Slyakin]

I remember it like it was yester-decade...

It was a pretty solid purple one and I had no games for it... I would just play my GBC games on it.

My first GBA game was actually Super Mario Bros 2, the Doki Doki Panic clone thing.

I had that classic, sexy solid-purple GBA, with Rayman Advance and Super Mario Advance. Nostalgia senses tingling...

 

[Andman315]

A blue one with Toys R' Us printed on it with Mario Kart Super Circuit. I still remember playing it on the toilet on Christmas Day...

Transparent pink GBA and the first game I played on it was Klonoa. I don't remember exactly which Klonoa though. My mom played a lot of GBC Tetris on it.

Mine was the clear purple with Pokemon Sapphire version.

 

[Ziggy Zigzagoon]

Mine was grey with Pokemon Ruby, I think. Of course, I got Ruby some time after the GBA.

I had the purple GBA with Poke Saphire. I still remember playing it on the weekends whenever I woke up(8-9 am). I still have it but sadly the d-pad is unresponsive. Its like a brother to me but in a deep sleep.

 

[HateBreed]

[DigitalDeviant]

My first GBA was glacier model, my first game was Mega Man Battle Network. I was in love with that game, still is my favorite gba game series.

Wow.........it's amazing, there was a post similar to this but for the DS a few days ago, and my answer was a white DS and Castlevania DS.

Guess what the GBA days were like ?
I swear I got a white GBA and .....Castlevania CoTM........talk about deja vu ( or whatever it's spelled ) !!!

I built my own. Crimson/Black GBA.

 

[Nollie]

I remember doing so many 'jobs' for my parents towards getting a GBA like washing the car, extensive gardening, painting a shed, for about half my summer holidays when I was 9.

I got a solid Purple GBA, with Rayman Advance.

silver GBA SP with tatoo graphics on it. First game was one of the harry potters. Not the 3D one but another one. Loved playing it.
