Gaming BIG QUESTION

[Stickell]

I thought nowbody played gba anymore, i never even bothered buying one because you get one built into ds, and the ONLY game i ever played in it was an arcade game that got me addicted to galaga(greatest game ever)

 

[InuYasha]

I fail to even see a question here.....

If you are looking for the ROM, you can't ask here... And if you want to play GBA games, you'll need either an Ez 3in1 or Ewin... Ez 3in1's are easier to find I would say... Unless you already have a game and don't want a back up.

I still play gba
even in the month of may
while listening to tay zonday
because it's okay

 

[Stickell]

lol, tay zonday!

I am sooooo sorry, i meant to ask ' does anyone really still play the GBA? and if so, why? '

i am playing Final Fantasy 1&2 right now on my GBA SP. brings back lots of memories from when I was a Nooblet.

 

[Stickell]

i am still a nooblet, atleast to all this ds stuff, lol

 

[moozxy]

I'm playing FFVI and SRTG.

Just because a games console is " dead " or no longer selling in the shops it doesn't mean all of a sudden everyone who owns one is going to stop playing !

Its like the genesis or snes, you can get emulators for them as well as virtual consoles on the ps3/xbox360 & wii but they never feel the same s on the hardware they were meant for, the gba sp is the best for gba games i would imagine with single screen and backlite.

As for playing gba games i still do and found loads on line iv never played before so always something new to play as is true with all older games consoles and computers which i play the games of regularly.

OH and i still play my GB color with zelda some times :-)

I have a GBA and SP and I love them both and play them both still--just not at the same time

. I also have a DSPhat

I play RPG's/Sims and side scrollers on the GBAsp, as those are the only games that I had for the system and I didnt know about GBA homebrew back then--I thought flash carts were ONLY used for Roms--oh, to be young and naive.

 

[Stickell]

i have to say, this site is the most responsive forum i have been to in a while! i mean, i can still see you guys looking at me like i am retarded, but still you guys are great!

I still play several NES and SNES games regularly, so yeah I still play GBA games when I feel like it.

GBA Micros are actually very good for travel because they are tiny as fuck and you can carry one wherever you go. Along with a cart like the Ezflash IV and a 2GB miniSD, you can carry hundreds of games around in a tiny little device.

I still play my GBASP Brighter because it's more nice than playing on the DS, with that black frame...

I finished Boktai 3 some days ago. Great game, and there are a lot more which I still have to play.

I'm playing GBA SP right now, megaman battle network 6 (greiga), megaman zero 4, and just finished Fire Emblem Sword of Seal (the jap one, there's a nice translation around 99%).
My fav handheld of all times i think ^^

Seconded; I don't feel like such an idiot on the bus playing on something the size of a mobile phone

And considering it cost 1/3rd of the price of a DS I'm less worried about getting it nicked.

I am currently finishing up Rhythm Tengoku on GBA and I just ordered a copy of the Famicom Mini version of Kid Icarus which should arrive by the end of the week.

I'm actually beefing up my GBA collection right now but I'm mainly sticking to buying the Japanese versions (because the JP boxes look better than the NA versions when they are imprisoned on my shelf).

I lost all of the boxes for my older GBA games so they are just sitting in a tin at the moment, they look kind of pathetic actually.

I really wish I had a gba micro for buses etc. Especially if I had a flashcart in it.

 

[hdofu]

the actual device or games? There are plenty of reasons to use a gba if you don't have a flash card, namely every gb/gbc game out there

 

[silent sniper]

i have a micro, i love it. i'm thinking of buying a NES or FFIV edition one just for collection purposes (or if my other one breaks)
