I don't see why when the DS versions are better in literally every way.
I'd like to jump into that series, but I might wait to see if the 3DS Japanese release of 1-3 releases over here. The first game alone is expensive due to supply constraints.
I just had a hilarious sad conversation with my nephew. He asked me why I had a camera. I told him it was a Game Boy. To which he responded "what's a Game Boy?"
This makes me feel incredibly old.
Can you recommend some of your favorite fan translations for GBA games that never made it to the US?
I remember playing that in my early teens, and one of the endings made me very confused. Guess which one, lol.There was a complete translation of Love Hina Advance. It's a dating game, and as I recall, it was fun, but kind of short.
Thought this was kind of interesting so I bought it. Pocket Love 2, comes with two CDs that have the lines from the game spoken by voice actresses. When you start the game you choose if you want to "link" with the CD or not, and then you match up the lines with the tracks on the CD.
I searched for Pocket Love and found this thing on google instead:

Suppa, if you find another copy of Kirby's Dreamland 2 for that price, I will reimburse you for shipping and cost.
whoops, I just noticed this.
Will do.
Was gonna hit up some stores today, but it started snowing again.
Damn this long winter.
You don't happen to live in Colorado do you?
I live up in Chicago.
But I do drop by Colorado (The Aurora/Denver area) every summer to visit some friends who moved down there

It blew my mind. He's only 7, so by the time he was born the DS had been out for a few years, so it makes sense. He loves his Wii and Mario, but had no clue what the fuck a Game Boy was.

I mainly play on PCs, and for a game that old, the price is out of control.
Its hard for me to switch back and forth between console and PC gaming. The juxtaposition in price, and visuals of modern consoles (See: PS3/360/XBO/PS4), is insane.
Still better than trying to buy Dragon Quest IV. That's a game that actually had a small run and was really good and is now hard to find even CIB at a reasonable price, let alone new.
Why are copies of F-Zero GP Legend so cheap? My local mom & pop shop has a decent sized stack of complete copies for a couple bucks each. Checking ebay, it doesn't look like they're going for that much more either.
Wow, DQIV is EXPENSIVE!
Glad I bought it on release.
I just realized 'DS' stands for dual-screen.
Common misconception, but it actually stands for "Developer System"
Why is Wario upside-down?
Yeah, I have a few cousins around that age too. They love Nintendo games but they never say Game Boy. It feels weird to me. They just call their 3DS a "Nintendo".It blew my mind.

I set out on Friday to find an AGS-101. I wound up finding two. Got them with chargers for $30 each. My total weekend haul:
The Pink SP is in great condition, blue is pretty beat up but the screen is good. The OG GBA and Pokeman were given to me for free, so can't beat that. Going to look into putting a backlit screen into it. If it's easy enough I'll probably get one more and do the same so I have two SPs and two OGs all with backlit screens.
I also got the Donkey Kong Country 2 for free. I bought those two cases you see in the back, but one of them had a broken latch. They were only $1.99 each so I figured it'd still be wroth it. Took me about two seconds with a screwdriver when I got home to get the strap unjammed, and inside was Donkey Kong. Pretty awesome.
I am very pleased with my weekend.
Well, was thinking a while about it for posting, but why not.
This is my PAL GBA collection, all are complete except Ninja Cop, is missing the manual. And a NA game, because it didn't come out in Europe. Still didn't want to miss that Mighty Final Fight game.
Just curious, what is the point of watermarking it like that? Covers everything up.
How are the GBA F-Zero games? They're the only ones in the franchise I've never touched.
Also completely forgot Ultimate Muscle even existed.
