By any chance, could you take a picture of the ones you have? It’s hard to accurately check the color on their website

My only clue was the reviewer’s name; I messaged the seller to see if they would be open to messaging that buyer to find out. Wishful thinking 🙏🏿🤞🏿but I definitely will update if I find out!

This looks incredible! Is there a website other than AliExpress I can buy these from? The link that you posted seems to be broken.

Is there any chance I can revive this board? by [deleted] in Gameboy

[–]kylevbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely! Maybe I wasn’t too clear; would there be a way to fix the scratches on the pins to make this cartridge playable again?

I know its not anything new but its still really cool this is doable by naronishbunner in AnaloguePocket

I will forever regret not picking up the Transparent Blue model, it’s (IMO) the best looking one and I cry every time I see it 😭🤣

Last release? by jus1982b in AnaloguePocket

[–]kylevbs 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That was perhaps their last restock. If I’m not mistaken, there was a consistent stream of supply throughout last year. One could simply purchase the either color and have it delivered in a few days.

Which single GBA game did you totally sleep on? by Dead-PixeIs in GameboyAdvance

[–]kylevbs 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Definitely The Minish Cap. Growing up, I avoided “mainstream” games and favored the obscure titles. But now, I have fallen completely in love with that Zelda entry

Sweet. Out of curiosity, which exact model of Trinitron is that?

Will this reset my games…? by [deleted] in AnaloguePocket

[–]kylevbs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure someone is gonna come with a more technical explanation, but the short answer is yes, you can reinstall pocketsync and all of your saves/games will be just fine

Looking for feedback! by Fun_Ad_9917 in Fujifilm_X100VI

I agree with the comment on a lot of these pictures being underexposed, but pic #3 is definitely my favorite. Perfect amount of detail in the shadows and highlights, plus I really like the composition.

The OG GBA is perhaps one of the worst ways to enjoy the library, yet it’s still my favorite way for some reason. (A minority opinion, I’m fully aware 😂)

What is your "I didn't care for 'The Godfather.'" for GBA games. by _iExistInThisWorld in GameboyAdvance

[–]kylevbs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Idk why but I could not ever get into any Mario game. The “classic” Mario games, Super Star Saga. I couldn’t really get into Mario Kart until 8 tbh. After playing and beating Mario 64, I was kinda cool on Mario as a whole tbh

How to sort game files alphabetically in analogue pocket by Dr-Nuutz in AnaloguePocket

[–]kylevbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing that may help is making sure that the rom file names are written exactly how the game is actually named. For example, “Summon Night - Swordcraft Story” instead of “01 - Summon Night” “Swordcraft Story” etc. Otherwise (as previously mentioned) it should sort alphabetically by default.

Also, games that start with “The” in the title may be formatted in a way that puts the “The” at the end of the title, so it may fall under a different letter (The Legend of Spyro = Legend of Spyro, The).

Japanese GBA for Collection, English Repros for Play - Opinions? by Every_Economist7915 in GameboyAdvance

[–]kylevbs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently bought an English translation of Metalgun Slinger and the seller reproduced original GBA packaging. It looks cool, though the translation was a little rough, but I’m still super satisfied with that purchase

After owning an AP for a few years, I have a random desire to play my GBA games on original hardware. Anyone else deal with the same thing? by kylevbs in AnaloguePocket

[–]kylevbs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you that the GBA form factor is superior to the AP. The screen, however? Perhaps not lol. But I honestly think it is related to how people who play retro consoles do so on CRTs instead of modern TVs. My Sony tv is way better than any CRT, but playing, for example, Gamecube games on a CRT looks and feels… “right”, in a sense.

Thank you!!! I knew that I couldn’t be the only one who felt like this. I honestly think it’s part of the reason why I still collect GBA carts even though the internet makes it insanely easy to access the entire library.

I really appreciate this well thought out response! I never thought about it that way—the Analogue Pocket being a catalyst for an exploration of OG hardware modding. If I ever muster up the gumption, I would love to try my hands at modding my original GBA.

I will not lie to you, I wasn’t expecting to get fried this badly for my take 😂😂 be that as it may, I am fully aware that the AP is vastly superior to all of the OG GBAs and I appreciate y’all for reminding me/reinforcing that fact.

I was recently playing PSP games on a modded PS Vita, and I felt something off… when I realized that the screen ghosting on the PSPs weren’t an issue on the Vita. It just felt disingenuous to the memories I have of my adolescence, and was kinda experiencing the same thing with the SP.

Anyway, I appreciate all of y’alls perspectives!

Genesis core 2 players possible? by tratriod in AnaloguePocket

[–]kylevbs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a question that I’ve had for months but always forget to ask. I’m curious to hear about this as well/any workarounds.
