It's fun! Crank up the speed and traffic, and it gets ridiculous trying to get your chicken across! Great head-to-head game, wish we had had this one at home when I was a kid.

I'll have to check that one out!
Love finding awesome games for old systems that I had no idea existed, my kid and I are going to have a blast with this one!
The price isn't great.

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. 🤷

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.

Yes I have, I open up every cart I purchase used and give it a good clean before testing it in a system. They are all genuine carts (and the DS FFIII I bought new on release).

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. 🤷
It took years grabbing these as they've popped up for decent prices, just recently grabbed V to finish it off. Wish III had been released as a GBA cart.

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!

I can relate to that. Same story, but for Virtual Boy's NA Jack Bros. Way too expensive to get now, but I got it way back when and thought I was paying too much at the time!

I know! 😭
It's been on the list for a while, but there are just too many great games in the GBA library. It's difficult to track down every cart I want (cause I kinda want all of them)

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.
Just dumped out my small bin of GBA games.
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/3415897 > Took all my games out of their protective cases and dumped them out on the table. Sometimes it's just satisfying to rummage through a bunch of carts, hold them in your hands, and admire the label art. Does anyone else periodically do this with their physical games?

Years ago I inherited my wife's family's Game Gear. After a recap, and replacing the backlight, I started tracking down games to play on it. It's been great exploring a whole library of games that I skipped out on as a kid! (I was a Nintendo kid) Now I have a nice little library of carts to play on this beast of a 90's handheld.
Finally got around to tracking down Tetris 2, looking forward to digging into it more. Quick pick-up-and-play puzzle games like this are great on the Game Boy. Happy to add this one to the library!
I made it earlier this year, thought I would share. Now my VB can safely travel with me!
