/vr/ - Retro Games

Now we have smartphones and everyone willingly guzzles the influencer slop, so they were ahead of their time on that one

I guess so many people thought making a GameBoy competitor was easy money. SNK, Bandai, Nokia all did this, not to mention Game.com, Tapwave Zodiac and so on. funny how they all failed and are barely even remembered nowadays, while the "underpowered" and "outdated" GBA still won and zoomers today think it was some GOAT console.

>No backlit
>lot of shit games
You're just a nintendo fanboy. Neo geo pocket and wonderswan library could be smaller but it was better. Nintendo best Handheld to date is their current console

>>10099302
shut the fuck up please, Pokemon Emerald alone is better than WonderSwan and NGP libraries combined. especially NGP with its endless 2D fighters no one wanted.

>>10099313
>also had no backlit
>Terrible soundchip
GBA was good because nintendo didn't have any other competition at that time but later PSP was released and mogged the DS and its huge shovelware library. Switch is the best handheld and console from nintendo

lmao, dumb pedophile.

>>10099324
>pedophile
So this is just a generic insult now?

>>10099332
No, you are publicly known to be sex offenders.

>>10099342
What the fuck are you on about

>>10099302
>no backlight

Nobody cares about the original GBA, the SP is the real king.

>>10099347
They think 4chan=pedos, and yet they're on this site too so...

>>10099315
PSP and Vita both sold less than the DS/3DS by a factor of 1:2.

>>10099382
Who cares
quality >>>

>>10099313
gba is great and it's not because of bloody fucking pokemon lol

You'll never guess why the wonderswan failed.

>>10099313
>poketranny
That explains it

>>10099382
I can play Mario 64 on a psp. That’s insane, the general public are average to low iq mouth breathers. It’s been well documented for a long time. Of course they would choose the shittier product, it happens every day.

>>10099417
>game sells million of copies
>almost everyone played it a a kid
>"nooo everyone who played it is a poketranny"
cope harder

>I have to mod my console to enjoy it with emulators

>>10099289
You just need GAYMES, thats all. Shit hardware? Nintendo does that already.

>>10099267
>and tried to make people watch ads on it?
if only you knew how bad things are

>>10099506
nta, but the cope seems to be coming entirely from you. There is zero chance >>10099313 is a mentally stable grownup who played emerald when it was new.

>>10099313
>Pokemon Emerald
pokemon died after gold/silver

>There is zero chance >>10099313 (You) is a mentally stable grownup who played emerald when it was new.
the amount of contrarianism on this board is something else. maybe learn to enjoy things? I grew up with Ruby and had a blast. I recognize it may have flaws, but if you think it's "impossible to enjoy" you're a huge faggot
really though, GBA has tons of great games. Aria of Sorrow, WL4, Rhythm Tengoku, Advance Wars, Fire Emblem, I could go on and on. you need to be a huge contrarian faggot to claim it was bad.

>Nobody cares about the original GBA
I do. I never had an SP, and while the backlight felt awesome at the time, I always hated holding it compared to my original model. I'd rather sit next to a table lamp than hold an SP anywhere.

>>10100030
This. Hundreds of aspie manchilds are obsessed with the OGGBA.

>>10100165
Yeah!
Hey, wait a minute.

>>10099302
>everything except the games is better!

>>10099267
If I had something good to say about it, I think the console design is good.

>>10100030
This exactly, even to this very day. Own both SP models and while the front and backlights are nice, they are far too uncomfortable to use. Thus I modded my original GBA and one I rescued from Ebay that was going to be thrown away.
