The GBA has the best handheld console library of all time imo
This isn't even counting all the SNES ports
>>
mario party advance is my one nostalgia pick i realize most people think it sucks
>>
not a bad take
>>
Mario party advanced is a based pick
>>
>>681447934
yeah i still honestly think it's lots of fun to play
>>
>>681447548
>inferior version of SNES games for the most part or troon RPGs
granted there are actual gems like rhythm heaven or gyakuten saiban
>>
>>681447548
How's the astro boy game?
>>
>>681448272
really good
it's made by treasure (gunstar heroes, alien soldier)
it's just a really fun side-scrolling beat em up
>>
>>681447548
I used to love pokemon and I can still happily replay childhood games of mine, but I don’t think I can ever properly play fire red again outside of some sort of challenge run, I just get nothing from it, it’s not like you have a deep story to bring you in, and even if I wanted to play pokemon multiplayer it’s not like I can do that on GBA
>>
>>681447548
A lot of those SNES ports were shit though. I'll never understand the thought process of only giving the GBA two face buttons when they planned to make so many SNES ports. And that's not even mentioning the screen crunch or how some games had a downgrade in the color quality.
>>
>>681447548
mogged by the DS without question
at least it had more original games instead of low fps ports
better gameplay too that made use of the hardware gimmicks
>>
>>681447548
>binding blade best anything
bait used to be believable
>>
>>681447595
I have lots of nostalgia for it too but I just replayed it and it's beyond fucking garbage. the amount of random warps towards the end is such a retarded waste of time
>>
>>681447548
good list but it needs advance wars. you can remove pokemon.
ds might have it beat with dsiware but nobody played those games
>>
>>681447548
GBA library is whatever, not bad but that console had such a short life that it never shined as much as it should have.

Can we finally play WW Twisted with proper Gyro? where?
>>
>>681452471
>GBA library is whatever
true, but when you think about it it's the best library of any handheld system. just goes to show you what a ghetto handhelds were before the switch
>>
GBA emulation is really good too. Works well and is extremely easy to set up even if you're retarded like me
>>
>>681452471
>Can we finally play WW Twisted with proper Gyro? where?
You can play it on a hacked 3DS I think
>>
>>681447548
Borked music aside (some tracks ended up okay though) I thought that the port of SMT1 was great on GBA.
>>
>>681447548
Astro Boy Omega Factor, Shaman King 2 and DragonBall Advance Adventure have no business being as good as they are.
>>
>>681447548
DS was better. cope.
>>
>>681447548
>Ace Attorney
Did someone port the script of the DS games to the GBA game or something?
>>
>>681447548
It's impressive that you managed to miss all 5 of the best GBA games from your image, well done.
>>
>>681453610
name 15 good ds games

It can't be whatever and the best at the same time, but I do agree GBA is at least a Top 5. It's a shame that current handhelds are pretty much underpowered home consoles, we get good games but not enough lower budget games outside of indies and nintendo games.

>>681453185
>You can play it on a hacked 3DS I think
afaik it's new 3ds only and with some performance hickups

>>681453760
First three games were GBA exclusive in japan, they released like a good 3-4 years before they were localized

FireRed is so fucking based, the idea of playing Pokemon Red with Gen 3 graphics and gameplay dynamics blew my fucking mind as a kid. Still holds up, with people continuing to make kino ROM hacks by the dozens.
>>
>>681455181
2 is better in every single way outside of the story and writing but they're still low tier SRPGs at the end of the day and his taste is indeed shit.

The GBA has the best library of games of any console, period. You're also somehow missing most of the actual best games it has.
>>
Any good virtual Pet games for the GBA?
>>
which starfy game on gba is the best
>>
>>681453813
gba games are playable on the ds making the ds the superior platform de facto
>>
>>681456780
yeah if you're a braindead RPG enthusiast maybe
the ds mogs it
>>
>>681447548
Not really.
The castlevanias are insipid, uninspired asset flips games with shitty animation and dull level design.
Astro Boy has incredibly awkward controls and rubbish repetitive gameplay
Fire Emblem is garbage
Mega Man is and always has been shite
Golden Sun blows unless you played it when you were 9 and have some weird shounen nostalgia for it

Mother 3, Metroid Zero Mission and Ninja Cop are good at least.
>This isn't even counting all the SNES ports
Good because they're all terrible watered down versions with washed out colours and bad audio.

A lot of the DS was sick too, but yeah.

Why is wario land 4 hardly ever ported?
>>
>>681467008
ermmmm they're actually yummy games thanks...
>>
>>681467283
only ace attorney is actually good, and the DS versions are better. especially because the first gets a GOATed extra case.
>>
>>681464515
Why the fuck do a*glos always hate Mega Man and Castlevania?

Another shitty DQ romhack overrated by Smashpedos who refuse to play it anyways
>Metroid Zero Mission
Sesame Street Super Metroid, holds your hand harder than Primes with hints toggled on.
Metroid Planets is better.
>Ninja Cop
Spiderman if he Ninja Gaiden but babby mode

You got shite taste. Suck a fat chode.

You see, gents?
>>
>>681473205
fairly telling about the quality of your software choices when the only good game is not a game, nay?
>>
>>681450051
Formortis is a shit final boss and Burning Blade being a generic red dragon is even worse
>>
>>681450051
and in both of those games the lords can promote before the penultimate chapter.
>>
>>681447548
I like it, but I agree with the others saying the DS' was better. I also prefer the PSP's purely on the basis of Patapon.
>>
>>681473647
tbf idunn is also pretty shit, a level 1 roy can 3 shot her
>>
>>681447548
I've been playing randomly picked GBA games (played 60 of them in last 3 months) and so far I only liked maybe 4 of them. GBA doesn't have that many good games.
