Ok, this is probably dumb, but I have to ask so I don't have a dissapointed son on Christmas morning


I noticed the game boy I bought is marked "Game Boy Advance SP" the Sonic game I bought is marked "for Game Boy Advance" Does this mean it won't work on a Game Boy Advance SP? What is the SP?

Thanks and sorry for my lack on knowledge

Wendy

   

It will work, don't worry.
GB Advance SP is the one with backlit screen, the one that folds into a small square shaped one.

GB Advance is the bigger one, and it does not have backlit screen.

So, go aheady, GBA games are universal and will work on GBA and GBA SP and on Nintendo DS as well.

        

     

The GBA SP is backwards compatible with the GBA advance cartridges, and even the gb color cartridges from back in the day.

Thank you for the replies! I'm so glad to hear they will work as I've got quite a few gamed stashed away.

And rsaturn......look for a new squeegie coming your way! I may even throw in a bottle of windex......brand name! Not that generic stuff !

   

Or a pile of coal

        

Wendy - Don't know if they have them in your area, but check out Game Stop for used games. These things get quite expensive new. We bought 5 used games for $30.

    

Thanks for the New Squeegie, Windex, and Pile of Coal, I'm so Happy!!

     

We have something similar in the area. I have been buying games for about six months or so and I picked up several for $5 and $10 on sale. I will have to check out the used place in the future. The most expensive games are those stinkin Wii games. Thank goodness we can rent them first!

We haven't done the Wii thing yet. I'm not big on gaming anymore. I think I got burned out playing the Atari Astroids game years ago.

    

With this, I just realized something..
How about GAME TRADE topic? We can start a topic, and start trading games? DS/GBA/GB/PSP, etc..

What do you think?


Game Trading Topic

        

It's a great idea - talk to Chris.

It should probably go in the General Forums with the classifieds and have it's own threads?

    

No need to have its own section, I just started a thread in Classifieds.
If it gets enough attention, we can think of something else. Game Trading Topic

        

It should be pretty active. One of the other sites I belong to has a section for games and it's pretty busy all the time. In fact, they finally broke it out between the types of games.

    

look out for a flash cartridge on ebay.... i got one for my son and can load 4 big games or up to 8 smaller games.... when he gets tired i just reflash it with different games.... ours is a 256 cartridge you used to get other sizes.... i have been told it will also work in the DS GBA slot but i dont have one to try......
