@Tekchip how about super friendly "no"? 😃. i disapprove how they play on scarcity, and i will vote with my wallet - i prefer inferior DIY FPGBC kit from FUNNYPLAYING. (for what it's worth, Russ from Retro Game Corps at least partially seems to agree) #gba#gameboy
I don't know if it's the #AnaloguePocket dpad or just frustrating design decisions, but #Drilldozer wants me to do things that the controls are absolutely not tight enough to achieve.
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?...
"The modder has taken a broken N64 controller and given it a new purpose: playing Game Boy, Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance games. We're talking physical carts here, too – this pad contains a fully-functional GBA console, and isn't based on emulation...."
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!
I saw once a GBA that had a cartridge with an USB-C port to put games inside without even having to disconnect it from the console.
Anyone knows if there's somewhere they sell that? #retrogaming#gba
🧵THREAD - iGBA 🧵
Yeah so I think a lot of iOS users have seen that Apple updated their AppStore TOS and people can upload emulators now, and it already happened. This new thing called iGBA launched on the AppStore and oh boy it is full of red flags!
I became aware of this emulator when the creator posted about it on the GBDev server. Later, I noticed a message of someone (I won't upload screenshots, I will respect people's privacy) asking where to get ROMs. I redirected him to Homebrew Hub
[1/?]
We talked on the GBDev server about this emulator and the gbatemp thread and @endrift just straight up confirmed the suspicions mentioned in the gbatemp thread. It's literally GBA4iOS. The developer likely just modified it to add ads, trackers and the GBDev link.
So Apple users, don't download this. Wait for better emulators to come out.
Hashtags for people to notice: #gba#gameboy#emulation

Reviews for Pocket Music and Column Crown on Game Boy Advance from NGC Magazine 65 - March 2002 (UK)
Look, I try to give people the benefit of the doubt as much as I can and try to look for positives most of the time, but I can't sugarcoat this one.
This Columns Crown review is complete and utter garbage from start to finish.
The game is an absolute classic. Highly recommended.
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.
Anyone know any games similar to the Spyro GBA ones? Isometric collectathons? I need more like this.
