/vr/ - Retro Games

GBA is the most soulless Nintendo console of all time.

>>10552210
OK, memeboy I'm inclined to agree to a degree, because it's part of 6th gen, which shouldn't have been allowed on /vr/, but GBA still has some soulful games however. Know of any other Punch-Out clones?

The ipoppo game on gba

Counter-Punch on the GBA is pretty fun. Not retro but Rage of the Gladiator is cool.

>>10552219
I don't care if it's /vr/ or not, it SUCKS Try Teleroboxer, the true Punch-Out 3.

>>10552437
I like the GBA.
But yeah I've already played Teleroboxer, beat the champion and all, awesome game.

Crossed swords
God hand

>>10552210
The ear grading sound certainly doesn't do it any favors.

it's a cheap trash game, lot of palate swaps, hideous artstyle, lazy difficulty. THAT SAID I did like a few of the changes it made to the punchout formula like requiring left right differentiation. It's ok.
It's sort of lost media in there being no online manual rip and it never being a big enough game to get any kind of guide material, so you won't really know how to play it unless you have the physical manual.

The only soulful games on the GBA that weren't remakes or Pokemon were metroidvanias, the rest of the console was shovelware.
It's only competitor in soullessness is the Wii, but that's not retro

Ok man, I never played any Pokemon or remakes on GBA, but I loved Astro Boy Omega Factor, Dragon Ball Advanced Adventure and Drill Dozer, among many others. The Fire Emblem games were great too.

>>10552758
Advance Wars are some of the best games of all time you stupid ape.

You sound like a zoomer who wants to cash on the "soulless" meme, but fail at it from your flawed zoomer perspective. You weren't alive during the soul era (pre-2000)

>>10552815
>flawed perspective
irony

>>10552815
I was alive and the target audience, and most of the GBA library was shovelware, and the initial screen was so dark, everything was unplayable until the GB player came along.

>>10553159
Yeah, nah you weren't alive. Have you heard of worm lights son? Google it, find a video on youtube, post a meme about it and then come back here when you're in your 20s.

>>10553162
I had the clamshell light, and it did fucking nothing, and also looked like a fucking tumor on the console

>>10552815
>anyone who disagrees with me is a zoomer
When did your kind become more irritating than zoomers themselves?

>>10553163
Ehh regurgitate better youtuber opinions next time.

>>10553159
Well your opinion is at odds with 99.9% of others. Having your opinion is fine, but it's not what the vast majority of people have experienced with the GBA. And frankly usually when everyone says something and there's one kid who is contrairian against it their opinion is based on arbtirary or foolish reasons that have little relation to reality.

>>10553291
Very well put, anon.

>>10553159
>and most of the GBA library was shovelware
Maybe, like most popular systems. It still has some really good games.
Anyway, are you gonna help naming more Punch-Outlikes or you're just gonna shitpost?

>>10553159
It was playable, the bigger issue is that light tended to wash things out to such an extent that it often felt like you might as well have been playing in monochrome.

>>10553291
>usually
Key word. Public sentiment is not always organic, and can be foolish or arbitrary as well.

Watcha think about this one fellers.

>>10553347
>Public sentiment is not always organic
Well it was this time, dipshit.

>>10553434
You get to punch a hot chick(for gba standards) in it but it's otherwise not very good.

>>10552758
>implying pokemon isn't soulless shovelware

>>10553469
Prove it, pussy.

>>10553276
It's not youtube opinions, fag, it was literally my experience playing it as a kid
>Get game
>Play on GBA
>Can't see shit
>Give up
>Get GB Player
>Suddenly can see
>Play games comfortably for once
>Never bother with portable until family member gets you an SP

Seek sunlight

>>10553619
Even in sunlight, you couldn't see

>>10553620
You're full of shit, just shut up.

>>10553623
No u

"Souless" is a worthless term, like the retard that derailed this thread at the beginning.

>>10552437
Such cool sprites in that game. I'm still pissed there isn't a working VB emulator for Oculus.

>>10553434
I loved this game.

>>10553434
This game is sort of amusing because this was really the last era your cartoony kids game could include stereotypical characters like pimps and witch doctors.
