I got a GBA today!

**Saltman** · 04-20-2018, 10:19 PM

Today a friend gave me his old GBA because he no longer uses it since like ages ago. I managed to make it work luckily. I' excited for this obviously!

It already had SML2 and an old Mario Golf game, so I already know it's compatible with GB/GBC games. So yeah, can you please recommend me some games?

Try to suggest Mario/Wario/DK/Yoshi/Nintendo first party titles too, because there really isn't a point on having one without any of them.

I like the first Super Mario Land a lot, though I know a lot of people think it's awful. Link's Awakening is a good game too.

**Vitiman** · 04-20-2018, 11:33 PM

Link's Awakening is amazing, I highly recommend that one.

**SonicZetrex** · 04-20-2018, 11:35 PM

Hmm...

Let's see here, what can I come up with...

Oh yeah!

For Game Boy:
Kirby: Tilt n' Tumble
Kirby: Block Ball + Pinball Land
Super Mario Bros Deluxe
Super Mario Land
Mario Golf

For Game Boy Advance:
Sonic Pinball Island
Golden Sun
MegaMan and Bass
Super Mario Advance (1-4)
Mario vs. Donkey Kong (Same as Donkey Kong '94, but different story plot.)

The old one.

Is it because it lacks a light? Yeah it's kind of annoying, but I can solve it by playing next to a lamp or something.

Plus the SP fits nicely into a pocket and looks super sleek, but the old one is fine. I used to play my old one on my bed in front of an open window so I could easily see the screen.

WOAH! You got a Gameboy Advance! I've been wanting one of those for a long time, since I was young, and then when the Micro came out, I still wanted it. This is cool! Savor every moment out of that little handheld of the past. I'll figure If I can get mine later.

**Nutshell** · 04-21-2018, 01:40 PM

Everything Wario (WarioWare Inc., WarioWare Twsited!, Wario Land 4) Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga, Game and Watch Gallery Advance (Game and Watch Gallery 4 in NTSC-U)

**VinnyVideo** · 04-21-2018, 03:59 PM

Besides all the awesome games mentioned above, I'm obliged to mention the Mario Tennis games and the Fire Emblem games.

Course clear! You got a card.

I have a friend in Michigan who had a GBA that he rarely played on, and he didn't have many games that he didn't lose somewhere. But I played Kirby's Dream Land and Super Mario Bros. Deluxe on it. It was quite interesting to see an old console in this day and age. Now, I usually play GBA games on an emulator on my phone. Here are some that I recommend (even though some have been mentioned):
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga
Both WarioWare titles
Wario Land 4
Super Mario Advance
Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones
Metroid: Zero Mission
Mario vs. Donkey Kong
Both Kirby GBA titles
Enjoy your GBA! Other Big Brin
