...When you think about it, the GBA didn't have that many

Yeah it's kind of true.
There's good games I just don't want to replay them. I spent 150 on a mint condition micro and an EZ flash a few months a go and have barely played it.

>there are people on /v/ right now that didn't enjoy the Hamtaro games

that's true but the games that were good on it were great.

>>380669231
nigga u cray.

To be fair a lot of the good games were SNES ports, but they had added content. FFVI is a good example. inb4 bad music, just patch that shit.

Boktai is the best

It was ok.

DS is literally the best console of all time IMO and I would rather have a DS with GBA compatibility than a 3DS with DS compatibility. I guess I'm saying GBA is better than 3DS.

Treasure made some fucking great GBA games

>>380671394
I've only ever "played" Hamtaro during TPP and holy shit that was fun.

I feel like I missed out on a ton by only watching a few episodes of the show.

You're nuts, OP.

Off the top of my head, there's
>Mega Man Battle Network 2/3/5/6
>Golden Sun 1+2
>Mega Man Zero 1-4
>Sonic Advance 1-3
>Metroid Fusion/Zero Mission
>Pokemon Emerald/FRLG
>Zelda Minish Cap
>WarioWare
>Wario Land 4
>Mother 3
>Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga

GBA had a ton of quality stuff

>>380669231
True, but it also had a fuckload of good remakes and ports to hold up its library

>>380673945
Minish Cap is so underrated I feel. It's such a great follow up to the other GB Zelda games

>>380674313
I honestly didn't care for Minish Cap. I dunno why, but it didn't sit well with me. I enjoyed the Oracle games a fuck ton though.

...When you think about it, some consoles just don't hold up when you try to apply absurd shitposting standards to them and consider a game to be good only when it's above 90 on metacritic.

>>380674426
The Oracle games were super impressive, considering their scope as 1 huge game. Plus all those Majora references

>>380673945
>MMBN 2/3/5/6
Never liked any of the MMBN games after 1. Too many bullshit bosses in 2 and 3 just felt stale
>Golden Sun
Are we still pretending this was good?
>Gen 3 pokemon
Emerald was fine but Ruby and Sapphire were crap and FR/LG weren't nearly as good as the originals.
>Minish Cap
In my backlog. Not bad, but not great either
>M&L
Really isn't that great, but at least it's better than the sequels.
>WarioWare
Got me on that one.

Surprised you didn't mention AW2 though

Does anyone else have this?

I have no rare or collector or limited edition video game shit but I have this and I really love it.

>>380669231
I realized this waaay back when I wanted a GBA Virtual Console and tried to think about all the great games I'd play

>>380675739
Friend of mine in 5th grade did.

Was this one of the SP's that had the much brighter screen?

>>380675362
dude I know but when you zone in on the screen its not bad after you get used to it quality is great
the size cramps my hands sometimes though.

Why do people play handhelds? Honest question. Looking at a tiny screen is shit and prevents me from getting into any game.

>>380677391
buy a bootleg copy of the translation, at this point they look legit and have no issues with play whatsoever

>>380678527
We play them because that's what we grew up on. Not everyone's under 15.

It's ok, another important chart has it.

>>380673006
you can hack a 3ds and get an R4i and get all 3
that's what I've done, I can inject any GBA ROM into a virtual console .cia and I'm good to go. you can even add sleep mode to most of them
this might sound complicated but trust me, I'm a tech retard, it's not

>>380676875
I like having them around and I have most of the games I actually want now anyway.

I am considering getting a GB/C flashcart just to play the translation of Pokemon GB2 on actual hardware, though. And I guess secondary save files of all the GB/C pokemon games would be a nice fringe benefit.

>>380678760
I'm 25 and I don't see what age has to do with it. Even as a kid I couldn't get into them. I preferred playing on a huge TV or on PC every time.

>>380669231

Are you an idiot? The GBA has the largest library of high quality games of ANY system, console or handheld.

classic /v/. I'm rolling in the aisles!

I love Kuru Kuru Kururin and Kururin Paradise in addition to the ones that have already been mentioned. Exceptional library. DS maybe is slightly better.

>>380677896
>>380678007
>people took the time of listing all the game by hand instead of just posting these images

anyway yeah OP BTFO but hey free GBA thread.

by the way the Nintendo DS (and DS lite) is the best handheld OF ALL TIME thanks to it playing both GBA and DS games. combining both library's is amazing.

PIRATE FAGS WHO HACKED THEIR 3DS NEED NOT APPLY

>>380681358
But the N3DS is the best since it can play all 3DS & DS games and it has VC for Game Boy/GB Color games, also if you're piratefag you can inject GBA games into it.

>>380682185
>VC for Game Boy/GB Color games
>paying for data you don't even own

physical copies are king anon

>>380682340
Again, the piracy part works out and by passes all of those complaints. But I do agree, physical copies are the best to me.

>>380682479
but pirating is wrong anon
