GBA w/ backlit mod, or GBA SP (frontlit)?

I wanna play old Pokemon (GB,GBC,GBA era) but can't choose what to buy. I know, the SP AGS-101 is the best as it has a backlit, but it's also very expensive to buy so it's out of the question for me. So, should I get a normal GBA and mod it with a backlit, or get the SP AGS-001 which is frontlit? In other words, is a frontlit 'good enough' to play in dark (vs. no lit) or should I really go with a back one?
I know the original GB backlits are quite cheap to buy but what about GBA?

Discuss StarFox, StarFox 2 & StarFox 64.
Has there ever been another rail shooter that controls/feels like SF64?
Honestly one of my Top 5 games of all time.

Although I recognize Star Fox 64 as a superior title, I really do enjoy playing Star Fox 1 more. I think it was just so incredible to me at the time that the feeling of amazement it gave me was just unable to ever be replicated again. On a side note, those bastards at Nintendo have a complete ROM of Star Fox 2 with features not present in any of the leaked betas and won't release it. Fuck them.

I can't get used to Star Fox's visuals.
Star Fox 2 is a myth.
Star Fox 64 is good but i'm burned out on it.

Which is better and why?

Boomerang because it is more straightforward, looks way better, has lots of unlockables, has more type of attacks (you can cast dragons nonstop if you know how), and because it comes in a standard CD case and not the medium thick one which is impossible to find replacements for.

I'm 25 and since I was a little kid i've always preferred retro games, i've pretty much been collecting since I was in like elementary school. Growing up my parents didn't have alot of money so I only had an NES, but I had a shitload of games for it.
Now all I see is retro gaming everything everywhere. And its all people who didn't really grow up with it. Its completely burned me out. My roommate talks about how N64 is the greatest system ever to exist, and how he's a collector, so he goes and buys jacked up priced n64 games for $40-60 that I remember paying alot less for in middle school and early high school. All day every day he watches these lame youtube reviewers (I'm a fan of the angry nerd myself, but the rest of them kinda suck) who exploit this hobby. All of the prices of everything are completely jacked up now.
Theres so much about retro games on youtube now that its insane. Now I'm starting to see everyone loves retro gaming.
I'm not bitching about it, its cool that this is mainstream now, but at the same time i'm just fucking burned out by it. Time to move onto a different nerdy hobby, i'll focus on magic and for the time being get a raspberry pi instead of paying ridiculous prices for shit. I mean, its cool that its come to be a mainstream thing, but does anyone else feel like these people are just bandwagoners with nothing better to do?
I'm done having retro gaming be my main nerd hobby for a bit, i'll always love it, but a combination of these people and skyrocketing prices always ruined it for me. I always wanted to get into turbografx, amiga, and especially neo geo. I'm just gonna get a raspberry pi with my tax return so I can play this stuff and listen to my roommate talk condescendingly about how great N64 and the NES classic is.

What do you mean I never liked it in the first place?
and yea, but its become way more popular over the last couple years. Maybe I just notice because my roommate is obsessed with n64 and doesn't even really play it and just watches youtube videos about it all day and talks about how he's a video game collector.

OP, the retro boom started in 2013. It's far from "recent" now.

If you "used to" like retro, you never liked it in the first place.
I liked some of the games when they fist came out, but don't play all of them now. I'm 50. Don't tell me what I like or don't like
Y'know, I'm still pretty salty about everything after 1995.

Let's talk about the Saturn.
Is your Saturn modded yet? I'm too lazy.
I bought some Saturn games today, all of them Japanese imports. Which ones would you recommend? Imports are cool.
>Dragon Force
>Asuka 120%
>House of The Dead
>Waku Waku 7
>Guardian Heroes
>Burning Rangers
>Deep Fear
>Daino Airan
>Shining Wisdom
>Slayers Royal

I got a Saturn and a broken Genesis with Toejam a couple months ago for $25 on CL.
I modded it but have hardly used it. Load times on Sonic 3D Blast are abysmal. Is that normal? I think the CD drive might be slightly fucked.

If that was Atari, they would've said that made the system 96-bit.

im staying away from saturn piracy until that new method of piracy in the back of the console is done and easily available.
like its seriously going to be something you plug in the back and will run games from usb/sd or something.
right now i stick with the ssf emulator, but it sucks to juggle different versions

'95

98 because it has the best gameplay, rooster, and balance.
99 has better sprite artwork and music than 98, but the striker shit is what ruined the game
97 has the better story, but thats not saying much
95 is the hardest one
and 96 has the best OST
you can play 94 but is very primitive compared to the other ones

I like the PS2/Steam versions of 98U and 2002U
But more retro one that I also like is 99 Evolution on Dreamcast
Or just any KoF with Yamazaki in it.
