I’ve been eyeing the collection on Switch! Just hard to justify when I have so many other ways to play those games already. My money is finite, unfortunately.
I do love the soundtracks though, and that also makes it tempting. I play a lot of theatrythm on both 3DS and Switch.
I wish! I still don’t have a PSP or Vita 😮💨
Just GBA, Square Enix did all these releases for it and I’m a big fan of the series and the system. Just threw Tactics in because it’s also “Final Fantasy” on the GBA. And figured I’d put the DS III in there too for the hell of it.
I have the original Tactics installed on my PS Classic. 🤷
To be fair, a GB or GBC cart in the SP will make it much less pocketable.
Dang it, thanks.
Same for me. If we’re counting in backwards compatibility, I was always a GBA guy for the fact it could play the entire Game Boy library.
As I’ve gotten older though, I’ve been gravitating more to the DS for the combination of DS and GBA.
They’re a lot of fun!
I’m sure it’s not for everyone though, they do make great display pieces too!

Oh, it’s right there… on my wishlist.
I do have it on my 3DS though as part of that Ambassador program. Not the same as having the cart, so I still want to track it down sometime.
I definitely have some options when I need a GBA fix!
If you have to have dedicated carts of them - I’d say to go for it!
If all you need is to play them again - I would strongly recommend getting a flash cart instead. Repros can be pretty unreliable.
I wish I could have all of them! Maybe some day…
I was never really interested in any Pokemon game after the first two gens. They just didn’t feel like different enough games to me. So with GBA, I only grabbed the remakes of the first gen when they came out.
It’s a great game! And Treasure seemed to work in every graphical trick they could get out of the system. There’s some impressive and chaotic graphics in that game.
The mother games are the only repros I’ve purchased, it’s a crime that Nintendo didn’t localize those for NA or EUR!
So it’s just a cheap repro from eBay with an English patch. I have a flash cart too, which is probably the better way to go.
Thank you
It’s too hard to choose!
Advance Wars is always a solid choice, with the ability to create your own maps it never really gets old.
Metroid Fusion is one of my favorites too.
Drill Dozer is a blast to 100%, and WarioWare is fantastic any time you pick it up!
There are too many great games on this system for me to choose!
I’m still looking to grab Iridion II, it’s supposed to be the superior game to the first. Love the music in Iridion 3D though 👍
Yep 👍.
I used to be a day 1 rooter and customizer, but so many of the little annoyances I’ve had with the OS over the years that I would root to change have either already changed to my preference or are now something that I can customize without root.
I think the ability to play carts is part of why this is over $100, that takes a lot more hardware than just an emulation box does.
It does hit as pricy at first, but I don’t think it’s unreasonable given what they’re doing here and what (I’m sure) BOM costs are right now.
IX might be my favorite of all time, and I would have camped out overnight to have that on something like the DS.
At least we’re getting some re-releases on the Switch now. 🤷
