How do you guys play your GBA games? Gameboy Advance, Gameboy Advance SP, Emulation (if so, please clarify what you're emulating it on), or what?

And why?
>>
I stick them in the slot on the Nintendo DS, and play them when not playing DS games.

>And why?
Because I actually use my DS, unlike my GBA systems.
>>
>>380006396
On my phone via emulation, damn convenient with touch on-screen controls and a large screen, you can turn off all filters and bathe in the pixelated glory of the Amazing Mirror, Friends of Mineral Town, Emerald, and Link to the Past.

>Not having a flashcart for gba
Why are you such a pleb anon
>>
>>380007385
Any, really. I like MyBoy!, but you could try something like GBA.emu. You can set the transparency of the controls, and they fit in the widescreen vs 3:2 discrepancy between phones and GBA. Even on my other phone (6.44'') it is comfy to play (although it's heavy), it is great for anything from 3'' and higher.
>>
Phone fags how the hell do you play on phone? I tried to play SMB3 and I just can't handle the touch controls.
Do you use controllers?

OP here. I have a Samsung S8, DS lite, 3DS, and GBA Advance SP AGS-101.

Everdrive on an SP/Micro, going to have to pick up an AGS-101
>>
>>380008364
The real thing is the obvious choice, espcieally if you have the cartridges.
If not then a flashcart.
>>
>>380008569
Yeah, I have a real FFV cart and an AGS-101. The only thing that annoys me is there's a small scratch on the screen, but that's about it.

>How do you play with touch controls though.

it's mostly fine, especially if you play a lot of RPGs, strategy or puzzle games who don't rely on reaction timed inputs so much.

>How long will it take to get used to?

not long to be honest. believe it or not, I even finished playing Castlevania Aria of Sorrow with touchscreen on the phone all the way through. so even if you play something like a platformer or action adventure, it will work just fine. can't replace the real controller however. or if you mind so much, then you gotta buy one of these phone controller adapters.

Thanks. Only game I intend to play is probably FFV, which is just a standard turn based JRPG.

Emulation is the way to go. GBA games are expensive as hell now, and VisualBoy Advance is pretty much a flawless emulator.

I don't know how good the controls are for platformers, because I pretty much just play Pokemon games on it. Controller setup is really easy though if you need to do that.
>>
>>380012708
that's what it is, yeah. it will work fine with just touch controls. I even played it on the phone a while ago.
>>
>Decide to replay Secret of mana 2-3
>My SNES setup is old and decide to replace zsnes with snes9x
>snes9x got problems reading some of my roms that znes runs just fine

Am I retarded?
Do I need to redownload my roms?
>>
>>380013694
Which version of SNES 9x? be sure it is the latest one.
>>
>>380013694
I played those on Snes9x just fine. mostly Seiken Densetsu 3 and the prequel. emulator definitely can handle those so you must be doing something wrong.
>>
>>380013826
newest, 1.52 or 53.
>>380014056
SD3 got some checksum error or something but would still run.
Some games that had the same error wouldnt.

znes could run all, granted it would probaly questionable roms to run but yeah.
>>
>>380006396
I play them on my 3ds.
