    This is indeed one of the GBA collection videos, among many others, that I used to educate myself about the GBA library, which consequently helped me to build (and continue to build) my collection. I started when I was 13 and now i’ve made my way to 80 games. Slow and steady progress, especially when trying to get the games in very good condition! Nevermind the bloody cost!
    Thanks again and I hope you’re well.

    Metroid Zero Mission is probably my favorite gba game. not my favorite series, but I always play it whenever I just need a filler game. great collection, thanks for the video.

  • @Taffy872
    @Taffy872 11 років тому +1

    Great collection. I recommend getting Mario Kart, DK Country 1-3, Wario Land 4, Yoshi Topsy Turvy, Kirby Nightmare in Dream Land and the Amazing Mirror, Drill Dozer, and maybe Mario Party or Kingdom Hearts if you are interested next for this platform.

  • @CReaper210
    @CReaper210 11 років тому +1

    I understand. It does have a lot of cool features though. Like button remapping, saving, HD upscaling.
    I'm personally going to get it, not for collecting, but just for the ease of use and hopefully making my gaming better.

  • @AlteredPiano
    @AlteredPiano 10 років тому +5

    I don't know about you, but to this day I would still rather play Game Boy stuff on the SP instead of one of the DS models. It's just so comfortable/portable.
    Great collection video, probably my favorite handheld as well!

    • @finngamer
      @finngamer  10 років тому +2

      Well, the backlit screen is superior to frontlit, but the SP is better in every other aspect.There was the one backlit SP model as well, so that would be the best option. :)

      @AlteredPiano 10 років тому +1

      The AGS-101 (I'm not sure I got the number right). I was interested in getting one but at the same time mine also still works fine. Maybe someday though, it would be a nice upgrade.

    To me the best part of a Zelda is the exploration and the game world, and the DS Zeldas just didn't have those in order.

  • @finngamer
    @finngamer  11 років тому

    Never really played Pokemon, somehow missed it. But of course, a Game Boy Collection without Pokemon is not really complete, they are on my shopping list.
    Link to the Past 2 seems cool, even though the garphical style doesn't excite me that much. Just happy to get back into that game world.

  • @mikasaka
    @mikasaka 11 років тому +1

    Ah I see. Was just curious as I've only recently started collecting for the GBA and have around 40 games now, but well kept boxed copies are extremely hard to find so I've had to resort to collecting mostly loose cartridges with the odd one or two boxed games. :)

  • @PoweredByZimeMusic

    Just Mario and Pokemon games are missing.Also some of PAL art covers looks much better than the NTSC US.Amazing GBA Collection.

  • @Darro85
    @Darro85 11 років тому +1

    I was the same way with Warioware Twisted in that I was waiting for it to come out here and it kept getting delayed and eventually just never got released. I never got around to playing it and it is the only one in the series I haven't played and people deem it to be the best one. Probably a bit on the pricey side for me to pick up now.

    I totally love GBA but 3DS is slowly becoming a favorite for me. Compatibility with the DS, one of the best eShop layouts, and so many good titles out right now.
    Still, it'll have to bust ass to beat the SP.

    I've played the Retron 3. There were some sound glitches, but other than that, it felt fine to me. But I don't know, I mean, I obviously haven't tried it with every game, I only have like 50 games combined for all the available game systems.

  • @CReaper210
    @CReaper210 11 років тому

    Finn, do you know what the Retron 5 is? It's a new retro console coming out with a bunch of cool features, plus it plays like 9 different types of games, like NES, SNES, Famicom, and Gameboy games.

  • @finngamer
    @finngamer  11 років тому

    Yes, it's mandatory for men.
    Of course, many people lie about their condition or mental state, so it's easy to get off the hook. But I'm quite positive it does only good for you and prepares you for adult life.

    Retron is notorious for bad emulations, I can only imagine combining that many consoles together only means worse emulation. Incorrect sounds, graphical glitches, input delay, etc.
