The bastards have actually done it, after all the thousands of confusinf rumors out there:

EHUCHAS!

Well did I miss something or does the damn thing play the GBA carts? I have over 20 games and am addicted to the new Metroid. I can't tell if I like the new design or not. I recently bought the Flood light and must say it made me very happy, so the backlit tiny new design may not get me all juiced up.

Only time will tell. I am glad you posted this, I have been trying to find out what the deal was.

By the looks of the pics the normal carts do work in the SP. Good, I felt a Sega CD headache comin on.

Kbye

That looks nice. My only problem with it is soon they are going to market a GBA pen. You put the pen up into your eye and it directly transmits the visual data to the back of your brain and you play with nodes that tape on to your temples. What they did here was release the GBA then release a new one too damn quick ... that is why I am almost abandoning new console and hand-held systems.

And you totally need to get yourself one of these, milkunits:



Mine was a present from a girlfriend. Err, shit, "My" girlfriend, that was meant to be, heh heh heh....

Anyway, on there at the moment I have Golden Sun, Mario Kart Super Circuit and Final Fight One.

A writable Gameboy Advance cartridge. Mmmmmmm. You use a serial-port linker into the GBA's network port to use it.

That is awesome. Where do you d/l the games? I have had a ton of success lately burning Dreamcast games using overnet file sharing. What is the process for using that thing?

Help a brotha out. I got turdies in my undies and fireball in my heart wanting more content!!!!!!!!

So it comes in the coolest cigerette-style case, 1920's style. It is endlessly stylish. Seriously, the boxes are pretty neat.

The drill goes like this: Head to alt.binaries.emulators.gameboy.advance , and use any file-grabbing software to download them. ROMs, I mean. They are ".gbas" God told me to put the S in there.

A serial-port connection to your GBA's linker cable-point allows for writing.

They come in various sizes, depending on the game. You can get them in all sorts of sizes, the most popular being 128Mb (16MB). ROMs come in all sizes; the biggest at the moment is 128, though in theory the Gameboy can support a maximum of 256. The only game I have at the moment that takes up all the space is DOOM II, and that's because it's basically a week emulation as opposed to a made thing.
Ecks Versus Sever II: Ballistic, is only 64Mb.

I bought mine from gbax.com, but I know there are United States-based ones around. You can even buy from Lik-Sang, if you trust 'em. And I must admit I've never had and nefariously bad dealing with them.

It just takes a little love.
And about £88.

I will do some WORLD WIDE WEB browsing. Thanks for the info. Have you had a lot of success finding the games? I think I have seen them on www.overnet.com a lot. This sounds like a purchase I am going to make. Thanks for the info. Keep me updated on info on this. I am all cranked up man!!!!!!!

So I can make my own games? I can put computer games on this and make them portable?

What about wierd games off of theunderdogs.org that I have come to love? What about my Freeware japanese shooters?

I don't get it ... how did you put Doom II on it? Is that already a GBA game?

Within my investigation I have found you can only use GBA games and ROMs specifically for GBA, But I could be wrong. Damn that would be cool.

Yes, that's why they're ROMs, jackasses. Doom II was released for the Gameboy , yes worm. And with this thing, you can get a lot of freeware programs people have made up. Including The Matrix, which is quite cool.

There's a thing called Tetanus on Drugs, which is Tetris but with a huge amount of Mode 7 Shit thrown at you. Seriously, the game tries to make you ill by spinning around, vibrating, vomiting puce at you, it's just endlessly cool in a rotating-texture kinda way.

And with this thing I'd be seriously tempted to get the life-organising program for the GBA. It would make such a cool organiser, this cool GBA. GIMME!

This is old news, but Robb, you might want to check this out:

I've played at least one GBA emulator and I'd suspect that the ROM is out there somewhere.

YES.

Nights should have been a franchise for Sega. Whoever decided to nix that should have committed hari-kiri. Oh, wait, right, he sold his stock back and did. Hahahaha!

I picked up Nights the other day, are there any Saturn emus around?

AHAHHAHAHA
You hit the MOTHER LOAD BABY. If Saturn stuff is what you want ... I damn know it.

Now if you want to play it on a Saturn I know one guy who mods them all up to play everything installs special boards to make them run better and ships them out. I also know a hub classicsega.homeunix.com where you can get Helluva ISOs which will work with the emulators. Use DC++ to get it is here http://sourceforge.net/project/showfile ... _id=131723

Whoa! Wasn't quite expecting a response like that.
I am at critical mass for consoles; I have a PS2/Xbox stack and more software than I know what to do with... 80% of stuff is lucky if it gets tested...

BUT, I'm all about that emu. I'll check it out when I'm home, danke mang.
