i bought a GBA today.

I got a GBA about a year ago, and I hardly ever play it.  The freaking screen is so dark and reflection-happy it's rediculous!  But I'm not a huge handheld fan anyway...

I do not understand how they are too basic for their price when they are far an away more advanced than the SNES games. Take Link to the Past for example. They ported it, and even added a multiplayer aspect. They upgraded Final Fantasy IV, V, and VI, created one of the most renowned strategy games, made Castlevania games up to par with Symphony of the Night and Metroid games on par with Super Metroid.

I really fail to see your logic, especially since you are a Nomad fan and many Genesis games have been ported/upgraded to the GBA.

Did you miss the part where I said "up to £25"? I could have a PS2 game, or even an Xbox 360 game for that price. How many Genesis games cost £25? Seeing as I have a Nomad with games barely more than £5-8, why would I then pay £25 for the same game with a few little extras?

I don't see what you are getting at. Remember back in the day when games cost $70? Also, there are obviously tons of exclusives for the GBA which warrant their price. Furthermore, I can rom every single game available for the nomad and flash it on the GBA. Can you say that about the GBA games onto a Nomad?

I really don't understand how you can be so damn ignorant.

ROMS suck.

And it isn't "damn ignorant". It is call an opinion.

and i second tynstar... screw ROMs. its either real or nothing.

yeah its hard to see even under a light. thats one thing that turns me off about it.

Roms do not suck, that is my opinion. And it is ignorant when the person denys facts. Furthermore, it is "called" an opinion and I find it ironic you contradict yourself.

Sorry, what "fact" was I denying?

And if we're going to get into a petty spelling competition, it's "denies".

How did I contradict myself? I didn't say you where stupid for liking roms. I said roms sucks is all.

I'm just going to leave this topic and never check it again before it get's any worse than it already is.





Also... ROMs are awesome, they save a bunch of money, I know for a fact that many people who attend/run this site would agree.
