I play my GBA SP all the time. It is my favorite handheld. Been getting back into Pokemon, along with playing some new favorites of mine like Varooom 3D and PIUemu. Also been enjoying 2P Bomberman. Wish there was a wireless solution to the link cable (not talking about the wireless adapter).

Retard
Besides that i agree with OP, right now i am replaying Golden Sun Book 1 and later plan on doing Book 2, also I am tryin to unlock Pyoro 2 in Wario Ware Inc. after that I may go and replay play all the 2D Zelda games, maybe I will give Rythm Heaven another shot, the game is great but I suck at Rythm games.
Great console, no original Mario game though.

Screen fucking sucks, but the bright and vibrant colors and style on a proper TV look awesome.
Nintendo always takes a little shit on something that could be nearly flawless. It's a running gag for the company. With the GBA, they could have invested $20-30 more on the screen and had both battery AND quality.

It isn't underrated.
The library just wasn't that good and there were serious droughts at times.
I remember having played almost all the good games and regularly walking through the GBA corner hoping to find something new.
That said, Advance Wars, Golden Sun and Metroid were pretty awesome back in the day.

There were quite a few dogshit ports though.

>>	Anonymous Sat Oct 23 04:33:34 2021 No.8262335 It genuinely doesn't have that many great games. Once you've played all the well known classics, there just isn't any "hidden gem"; and any GBA thread confirms this by having people just cite the classics over and over.

The list is missing a bunch of games. It doesn't even have the GBA Rayman, Crash, Spyro and Klonoa games, Dragon Ball Advanced Adventure, Rocket Slime, Metal Slug Advance, Mr. Driller, Bomberman Tournament, Kururin and somehow Ham-Ham Games but not Ham-Ham Heartbreak. Hell Mario vs Fucking Donkey Kong isn't on this but King of Swing is.
GBA has no shortage of good obscure games or hidden gems or even just extremely interesting games like Capcom and SNK trying to make their fighters like KOF and SF Alpha to work on the console.

The list is overly generous. It's reflects 'what games an 8 year old with no other choice of console should buy' and not 'what games are valuable reasons to invest in the system'. Weak ports, dual versions, and minor-iterative series spam are not good reasons to own a GBA.

The only reason you would buy physical games is to be involved in the only long term investment that you can actually get enjoyment out of (at this price point, vacation rentals can be very good if you're willing to roll low and clean by yourself a lot).

the audio chip cannot be good or bad because it doesn't even exist.
the cpu handles audio directly, that's why almost every game cuts corners in audio, since is either good audio or good game logic.
of course some were able to pull-off miracles like golden sun.

This is probably bait, but I honestly do like both GBC and GBA, but I love how good the GBC games are. Very quality spritework and some neat experimentation with all the IR stuff. Going from just a couple good GB games to a fuckton of great GBC games. Crazy how the latter was all in the last like 4 years or so. I like both, and Rockman EXE 4.5 is one of my faves, but the GBC library grabs me just a bit more.
Could be that I grew up with GBA and took a long while before getting myself a nice GBC to play on, but the GBA library doesn't have as much mystique, especially with all the ports. Both have great imports, though.

Sure, but I have a funny feeling you just want to see them to try to argue my tastes. Just my opinions but:
Really into the River King games, Harvest Moon, Survival Kids (both are great), Shantae, both Mario Golf and Tennis if they don't count as ports since the RPG aspects are pretty novel, DQM 1 and 2, Wario Land games I hear are great. Would say you're missing one of the Zeldas but I imagine you don't like Oracle of Ages which is fair. Ghost Babel is great, the Hamtaro game was cute fun, and I could go into mongames, but I like a bunch of JP stuff, so I'm not sure if you'd want to count that. The Pokemon Puzzle League game is great, but I do like that people have been recovering the lost Panel de Pon stuff hidden in it.
I've got a lot more I can list, especially with all the fan translations and imports, but if I keep going, it'll just take room in the thread. If you like your GBA games, that's fine. I do too, I just like GBC more

Just drop the entire no-intro GB, GBC and GBA in there minus all the girly games like Barbie. That's what I did. I followed the /v/ wiki to split by genres and shoved the rest in 2 folders (EZ Flash Omega has a limit per folder). Then I have a folder for romhacks.

You know Damn well a lot of those games are shit and you are coming from a place of pure nostalgia bias. The Gameboy versions of shantae suck. DQM has superior sequels on other hardware. You're citing warioware in a way that shows you haven't played them, which shows your grasping at straws and talking out of your ass. Makes me think you probably never even picked up shit for the GBA, probably only played minish cap and then got mad at the lack of mario titles.

The GBA was an amazing system that allowed you to do things you would never have imagined doing with a handheld. However, take that away, and its exclusive library is a bit lukewarm. I return to SNES and even Genesis games more often than GBA.
