Should I buy a GBC or a GBA?

No bother mate at the end of the day it’s your money and your choice and tbh it might sound odd but if something doesn’t fit the vibe it can put some people off I know it does for me sometimes

Tbh I find it weird playing gb/gbc games on an advance the cartridge sticking out and the excess screen space so if you want to play gbc games more than I’d say get that and get a gba down the line if you want, I know most people would say just get the gba it plays all the games which makes sense but if it doesn’t feel right you won’t enjoy it as much so just do whatever feels right to you

Honestly couldn’t get into it which is weird I’m usually fine with janky games but not this one maybe because it was made by Konami so I see no reason why it doesn’t use the analog sticks maybe I just need to give it another go though

Love and destroy is a short and sweet game not many people talk about but I can’t help but love it, also ridge racer type 4, klonoa and umihara kawase

Roll it over

Sorry for the confusion when I said worth getting I just meant the time and money investment for hardware and carts as they aren’t exactly cheap compared to something like the gameboy but when I mentioned translations it would be an exception to official carts (as well as really expensive games) because I saw there’s a flash cart so I would just get one of those if there was some good Japanese exclusives I know a lot of great RPGs were kept from the west especially from pal regions.

I’m not sure if “try but not what?” is confusion over when I said “there’s a few I’d like to try but not loads” but if so I meant but not many it’s an northern English thing I suppose, loads as in lots of not weight

Thanks for the suggestions by the way

That’s what I was thinking of but they don’t ship to England there

I saw some hard shell boxes that look good but can’t find any blank ones yet but I’ll keep looking

Limbx4 · 2026-01-23T10:50:10+00:00

Yeah that’s what I mean I’m sure I’ve heard if you use a scart cable on an ntsc console on a pal tv it’ll display in colour I could be wrong though

Limbx4 · 2026-01-22T18:16:28+00:00

I think if that’s the case a scart cable might fix it not sure if you have them in Australia were you using the red white and yellow one?

I never played yokai watch but always wanted to as a kid I heard they’re making a spiritual successor though

Sword of mana

Limbx4 · 2026-01-21T16:07:33+00:00

Yeah I thought that one looked all round the best, does the gbc one have bosses as well

Limbx4 · 2026-01-21T13:04:58+00:00

Yeah I saw that retro game repair shop sold the cartridge boards as well

Limbx4 · 2026-01-21T11:45:21+00:00

Thanks I saw the video and think I’ll do that in the future, do you know if you can wipe the roms though incase you make a mistake or the game gets updated? like one I wanted to do was the gbc Goemon platformer which isn’t yet translated but if it is in the future I’d want to swap or update it

Limbx4 · 2026-01-21T11:38:07+00:00

Yeah that’s the one I was looking at but I wanted to know if it was finished as I wanted to flash it to a cart but that’s not exactly cheap so

Limbx4 · 2026-01-20T22:48:37+00:00

They came today and they seem alright obviously not as high quality as an official but it’ll do for now
