For years, this cartridge was one the rarest pieces of Game Boy hardware out there. It was only last year that the Video Game History Foundation managed to dump the ROM.
Now you can emulate the Glucoboy without any actual blood!
I wrote an article about the 3 games and just how good they are. Imo, they're extremely underrated. I really wanna play more games similar to it but I can't find much in the way of isometric collectathons(?) at all. Looking for any suggestions. Apologies if this isn't the right spot. GBA is retro right?...
this is a no-solder mod and a complete case swap that uses a funnyplaying 3.0 ips kit, a usbc battery mod, a custom shell, new buttons, new stickers, and an ezflash omega definitive edition cart with an sd card that currently holds every #gb#gbc and #gba rom from myrient afaik
very happy with it, definitely my second favorite way to play gba games after the steam deck. this is great to just bring around around with me when i'm just waiting to pick someone up. :3
I can’t wait to play Mother 3. #Earthbound is one of the best games I’ve ever played. Debating if I should give Mother 1 aka Earthbound Beginnings a shot?
Crash Bandicoot The Huge Adventure na #GBA to całkiem przyjemna produkcja. Mocno bazuje na drugiej i trzeciej odsłonie z #PSOne. Trochę boli zły projekt krawędzi, mało animacji na dalszym planie i męczące sekcje bonusowe, ale ogólnie niezły platformer.

Also #TIL, you could connect to a remote #SMB share right from the native Files app on your #iPhone. Did just that and copied over some BIOS files and ROMs, now I'm off to the races.
Just to add a a little controversy: While trying to decide which version is my personal favourite, I just went through the different variants of "Super Mario Bros. 3".
Oh, well... there's the original NES version and there's the SNES "Allstars" remake. The NES graphic looks super clean and the SNES remaster is just beautiful! Both are perfect in their own way!
But there's also this creepy thing they put on the GBA.... I never understood why Mario needed a voice actor! That weird egg-throwing dinosaur somehow is also talking now. Adding the annoying screen crunch to fit the GBA's screen... this will never be as good as the originals!
...Mystic Quest in Europe. Sword of Mana was the fifth release in the series. 🏹
The gameplay of Sword of Mana is an expanded and modified version of the original gameplay with elements added from later games in the Mana series. ⚔️

Anyone know any games similar to the Spyro GBA ones? Isometric collectathons? I need more like this.
