18:21 it’s selling for 300$ rn. Welp guess I’ll wait a bit

This video was well researched I had never heard of some of these game boy games before!! Well edited and love the humor. However your midwestern O's were hilarious!! They remind me of Kevin from the Office which I know is a bad comparison but I think you should lean in on a persona as a Midwestern dolt.

Huh, I really was expecting to see some MegaMan battle network in this

The Gameboy Advance was basically a PlayStation 1 for your pocket.

I know that the advancements (pun intended) in gaming have kinda slowed down these last few generations, but I nor anybody who was there can emphasize enough just how massive the leaps were generation to generation were at this time. My first console was a GBC, and I was obsessed with Pokemon Red. Then I got Pokemon Silver and I was like "oh shit the sprites are in color!" Then I got a GBA SP with Pokemon Sapphire and y'all would have thought I was playing Ghost of Tsushima on a portable console AND I can watch Ed, Edd, n Eddy? My mind was *blown*. Even now my Switch gets way more playtime than my Xbox Series X because every time I'm holding it's like the last 20+ years of the development of handheld gaming catches up with me at once.

Okay, the GBA came out 3 years before the PSP and it was advanced for a Gameboy XD

Boktai probably sucks to play on emulators

I still have my plan yan micro. There are 3 different interfaces

3:25 while this error says something about Windows XP, there is a way to at least fix the garbled characters in the message. It looks like this because it’s in Japanese, and the app is designed to use Japanese character encoding (Shift-JIS rather than Unicode). The easiest way is to use a program called Locale Emulator. It will let you run any program with Japanese locale. Some Japanese programs refuse to run because they rely on files with Japanese filenames, and crash if they can’t access these files correctly. If not, at least you’ll be able to screenshot the error text and paste it in Google Lens to get the full story. Alternatively, you can change the setting in Windows to change the default character encoding. Control Panel > Clock and Region > Region > Administrative tab > Language for non-Unicode program. Be aware that this will change the \ in Windows filepaths to ¥.

Incredible video! Got my sub! I know it wouldn't follow your channel content perfectly but would love to see one for the PSP! The add-ons and innovation with it are also incredible!

PSP was great, but the GBA SP is still my favorite handheld of all time.

Playing anything with the Wii U GamePad is just awful. SM64DS plays better on 3DS. But there is a mod for the emu on PC which binds the controls of the touchscreen to a stick, this is the definitive way to play SM64DS. Even though I personally like the original more.

Nice video about one of my favorite console of every time ❤ Can you do a sequel of this video where you talk about the things that you briefly mentioned at the end of this video ? Please 😄

TH-cam continues to pop off with recommending me amazing small channels. Excellent video, and I really appreciate the captions :)

this is heavily inspired by scott the woz lol

Ah yes the gba, one of the best handhelds ever made!! That form factor is 🔥 👌

Another moron that calls OoT3D and MM3D remakes, when all Nintendo did was give Grezzo the game code from the N64 versions to modify. They are remasters. Nearly the entire R&D of making a new game is removed when Grezzo started with the entire source code. People have known this for nearly a decade, and I guess nostalgia has people like you calling things improper terms. Do better.

Hideo Kojima fr gave us a reason to touch grass

what's that music at the end?

1:18 bro did NOT just say eckspecially💀💀💀💀💀💀

Man all of this is cool af

Omfg, I CANNOT get enough of Boktai! Definitely one of my favorite games!

It wasn't the age of the card I assure you the card itself also needs to be in the correct format just like the files

Dude.. You should do your homework 🤦🏽‍♂️ GBA was sixth gen and even the DS was released precisely everywhere, before the PSP, in each and every market region. The GBA wasn't competing with the PSP, although the PSP was competing with GBA and DS, as Sony had something they needed to prove.

6:13 I used this as my mp3 player for quite a while back in the day, such a charming thing. I did have a psp too but that one was already packed with anime and whatnot. I was always jealous of those gba video carts you got though. Cool white cartridges and cartoons in terrible quality? I'd have thrown so much money on that but no europe wasn't allowed those.

I disagree with any praise done to Wario Ware. It should've stayed Game & Watch and Wario Land.

Great video! God I miss the gba days.

It hard to hear some of your volume without stable volume turned on, esp when you talk quieter.

I found out how the specs of these videos a while ago, it's sort of a very low quality Cinepak version compiled for the GBA's tiny specs. It's even compatible with my Everdrive, loading almost instantly. The only caveat is the hard 32M ROM size limit, but if you go for quality over speed you can get some real nice results. Music videos for example, they look and sound like nothing I've ever seen on the GBA, it's definitely worth a try!

even warioware gold, that has the most microgames on the franchise, uses a lot of the ones presented in warioware twisted

Can you not use that dog squeak toy sfx? Legit drives the dog crazy and I have to close the vid if I'm home

09:48 Ahh yes, the P. Diddy special

Ayyoo?!

31:52 this game seems… familiar

19:00 I AM RAGING RIGHT NOW THAT YOU DIDN’T TALK MORE ABOUT THE MONKEY GAME I WANT TO KNOW WHAT ¡T IS

one kind of interesting thing about the Tilt Sensor is that supposedly Diddy Kong Pilot was originally going to use it, before Rareware got bought out by Microsoft. it might be possibly that Banjo-Pilot either didn't use the tilt sensor either because of Nintendo confidentiality on new technology, or the game was simplified in mechanics to keep costs down. almost all the games that uses the GBA tilt sensor shares a developer with the one used in Tilt N' Tumble, aware that the game itself wasn't originally going to feature the Kirby IP, so it definitely wasn't a HAL-devised idea. Nintendo R&D2 did both Kirby Tilt n Tumble and Koro Koro Puzzle Happy Panechu!, technically also Warioware Twisted, however R&D1 and 2 got merged into Nintendo SPD (later merged with EAD into EPD). SPD in group 1 handled Twisted, though SPD2 supervised on Drill Dozer which at least had a rumble motor. Twisted had a combo rumble/gyro. Semi-related to the Rareware buyout, Nintendo wasn't involved with the GBA versions of the DKC series until the second one. seems to be a hard-ban on DK content until 2004 within nintendo, with stuff like Jungle Beat and Konga. Rare definitely cooked far better with 2 and 3's extra content, compared to Mario Advance 2's. 1's is kind of in the background and 4's was mostly e-reader based. guess 2's is there but it's a screencrunched yoshi's island!. a yoshi egg hunt, ability to teleport to any stage or 6 more levels isn't that major compared to the e-reader contents. the DKC port elements added something to things.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who got Scott the Woz vibes from this video, but it still has its own similar but different comedic style and feel. Definitely gonna watch more!

You're killing me with all the mispronunciations here... "Boke Tie", "High Day Oh"... :P But in all seriousness, you reminded me I really wanted the Play Yan (Playan?) when I first learned about it in the early 2000's as teenager. Though learning how complicated it was to even get it working... I probably would've been disappointed and frustrated not being smart enough to know how to use it properly. Also as you said, as time went on, it became more and more obsolete, especially with modern cellphones now. ...Kinda also reminds me of wanting the TV Tuner for the Game Gear as a kid, which also is obsolete as hell now.

Wow Boktai is a super cool idea, definitely a crazy kind of idea we won't be likely to ever see again. Never knew about the solar sensor until now.

It would have been better if it had two extra face buttons.

Your commentary is annoying

I wonder how hard it would be to turn a play yan into a flashcart

Y'know, for its time, the GBA was actually pretty powerful, the fact that people decided to port/make 3D games for it when it has no 3D acceleration hardware whatsoever is proof in-and-of-itself! That's software-rendering! The GBA's CPU just straight-up HAS more number-crunching grunt than it actually needed for the 2D games it was designed for!

before the entire world including Nintendo copied Apple's boring model, they used to be so innovative and creative!!... I so hate that every creative company copies Apple's model in current years... fantastic video, I knew about many of these but a few caught me off guard, video calling??? woah..... 90's me watching Pokemon's Ash call his mom or Prof. Oak on video call wouldn't LOST IT knowing the GBA SP in their pocket could video call someone . such a fun video!!

You know, I've always thought about what if a hypothetical "Season 2" for Legend of Falcon was based off of *Maximum Velocity,* taking place further into the future and featuring Ryu's descendent and Megan taking Falcon's role, I believe it would've been a great way to expand upon the universe further and to do more with the MV cast since they've never appeared in another game since.

I love your video essay and insta-subscribed. I have a bit of a gripe with your citation of the article describing an $8,000 video conferencing rig, though. Skype debuted in 2003 and was already widely popular in 2005--webcames were commonplace, even if not yet ubiquitous. You could very easily spend less than $200 and get to video conferencing on your PC in 2005. Maybe you were going for ironic hyperbole and I'm taking it too literally? I dunno.

have you seen the sm64 gba demake?
