LUCKY
>>722561928nigga, this shit was $50 at releasei got it along with f-zero and CotMi love smb2, but sma is one of the only gba games i ever regretted buyingit just was not what i needed
>>722561928>nintendo being jewish is good because they were jewish before
>>722561928Mario 2 advance was SOUL and im tired of pretending its not>HOW COULD YOU>ILL REMEMBER THIS
>>722561928The GBA games were portable and at the time having essentially portable NES/SNES games was a good selling point. You could make the argument that the same thing applies to the Wii games rereleasing on Switch (a portable console) but nowadays it's alot easier to get portable devices that can run Wii games.

>>722561928I got this with an e-reader and fucking hated the game. Super Mario Bros 1 and 2 sucked ass. My first Mario was SMB3 and I was pissed off that they made the SMB3 GBA easier and let you take an extra hit. Fire Mario -> Super Mario - Mario then you die. Before it was Fire Mario -> Mario.
IM TO HOT TO TOUCH
>>722562726>it just was not what i neededfucking keki remember when this shit was a near catchphrase for mariothe series overall had a much more fun identity in the early 2000s, was a really fun time to be into nintendo
>>722562890>Super Mario Bros 1 and 2 sucked ass.Im sorry for your mental retardation
>>722561928>Super Mario Advance 1 = SMB2>Super Mario Advance 2 = SMW = SMB5>Super Mario Advance 3 = Yoshi Island = SMW2 = SMB6>Super Mario Advance 4 = SMB3
>>722561928>adjusted to inflationand stopped reading right therewhy do corpo shills love to excuse retarded pricing with this line oh a low end pc in the 80s was 300 bucks so coughing up 1 249 bucks today for a low end shouldn't be hard :)) please rape my wallet corp rats!
>>722561928Shame we missed out on an original SMB on Game Boy Advance, the sprites could've looked great. I like SMW but you can really tell it's an early 16 bit game and they went directly to 2.5D with NSMB.
>>722562890Sounds like you played the Japanese version of SMB3 first. They had already made that change on the NES for the western releases.
>>722561928JUST-A WHAT I NEEDED!
Unironically this was how I played smb2/world/3 and it’s why I won’t give the new gens shit for playing remakes
>>722562773>>722562983>>722563330As annoying as the sound bites were, at least they were made for this version. ALTTP GBA just spammed you with reused young Link cries from OOT every single time you swang the sword which you can do approximately five times as fast as in OOT.
>>722563421>Annoyingtry kino
>>722563148They skipped it because of pic related. If it were on GBA it most likely would've used the All-Stars sprites like the others desu.
>>722563421>annoyingWrong
>>722563670I didn't mean "the original SMB", I meant "an original SMB" i.e. a new one.
>>722561928>enhance it a little>GBA gameslol No way. GBA ports were always inferior versions of the SNES. The visuals and the music are always butchered.
>>722563784My mistake. Thank you for not resorting to "reading comprehension" or "retard".
>>722563670the only issue with this game is that the gb screen resolution is smaller than the nesotherwise this was a badass cart to havei really liked the boo racing (even tho some of them were borderline impossible)
>>722563929nice reading comprehension retard. sounds like a book is just what you needed
>>722561928It always annoyed me that the GBA had no original Mario games.
>>722561928>Where do people get this idea that Nintendo overpricing the fuck out of their content is new?This idea is primarily peddled by snoys, random tourists and "content creators" looking to outrage farm, people who have stuck with Nintendo through thick and thin know Nintendo stuff is always overpriced AF but trust in the general quality of the products being delivered.In the last few months I've heard so many people bitching about how Switch 2 remasters like Zelda and Pokemon are $70 after years of launching, and I'm like "Nigger, where have you fucking been? Nintendo never discounts games, EVER."
>>722564037I think its because EAD themselves never developed a single GBA game. The Mario Kart game for it was developed by Intelligent Systems, and the Super Mario Advance ports were done by Nintendo R&D2. It was really R&D1 and Intelligent Systems who carried the Game Boy Advance first-party wise.
>>722561928They did the same shit with Link to the Past, complete with soundbites taken from Wind Waker
>>722564325Ocarina actually, WW wasn't out for another year.
>>722564325To be fair I think ALttP was simply ported because they needed something to sweeten the Four Swords deal and not make it feel like a scam if they released it on its own.
>>722564525i have this cart, but never got a chance to play four swords :'(
>>722564325Palace of the four sword is a great dungeon with solid puzzles and a couple amazing boss refights. The shadow links themselves are weak as the final boss though, they are really just 'trade hits and chug potions'.
Retard, those games were bad deals but Nintendo also released The Mario All-Star collection + SMW as a pack-in, Zelda Collection as a pre-order for WW. Metroid Prime Trilogy, Kirby collection. Plus, they used to make Player's choice which were cheaper releases for popular games. They stopped all this shit and have been ripping off millenials still obessed with nintendo, because kids sure aren't buying their shit.
I bailed on Nintendo in the Gamecube era.Even N64 was hard for me to stomach because it had like 5 games worth playing, but GC was dire.Never looked back.
>>722561928This was back when Nintendo actually discounted their games after a while.
>>722564401>another yearWW came out a week after in Japan.
>>722561928>Cut a piece of a SNES ROM out and enhance it a littleActually, only the graphics and music were taken from the SNES version. The actual back-end programming was redone from scratch.Sources:Developer interview: http://www.nintendo.co.jp/nom/0103/031/index.htmlPartial English translation: http://www.marioboards.com/index.php?topic=28694.msg1695195#msg1695195
>>722561928Stop trying to un-memoryhole tendies that the GBA lineup sucked.
>>722563972Thanks doc
>>722563670Man I wish this weren't locked to the GBC with its reduced resolution, because it's an otherwise definitive version of the original SMB and some of the Lost Levels content.
