My Retro Revival
Darkanubis87 \| 6:45 PM on 02.03.2009	6 comments

This is the beginning of recollecting all my retro games i was sadly forced to sell for stuff like food back when i was broke. Above pictured are a Game Boy Advance, Poke Mon Red (GB), Super Mario Brothers 3: Yoshi's Island (GBA), Zelda: Links Awakening DX (GBC), and Golden Sun (GBA). I plan on getting way more, im might get one or two per paycheck. Soon i will have all my games back that i enjoyed when i was a kid. If you are interested in games or want to read more about my past game experience check out my Dtoid blog, also the main site is pretty awesome, especially the retro podcast. ok now im off to game.

Oh man, I love all those games.

Too bad my DS can't play my Gameboy games anymore.

Man, I've recently had to do the same thing. Finally got back Marvel vs Capcom 2, Final Fantasy X, and Parasite Eve due to selling them for money when I was in a pinch. As well as several obscure 64 games like Mischief Makers, Body Harvest and Blast Corps.

Oh and btw, B.O.B. totally f***ing rocks. I played that game to death when I was younger.

I remember bringing home my brand new GBA and CastleVania: Circle of the Moon for the first time, settling down into a recliner, and thinking...

...why can't I see anything?

Nintendo really dropped the ball with not including a backlight on the first GBA, otherwise it was flawless. And, in turn, led to the birth of the GBA SP which is a perfect little device.

I hope you also acquired a massive spotlight to shine on your GBA while playing. Dimly is right, no backlighting SUCKED on this version. You're pretty much tethered to the nearest lamp or other light source.

I could only play away from windows with an overhead light source from 6:02pm-6:37pm.

But seriously, I got a huge awkward book-light type things that latched onto the GBA.
