I have no clue why I have this, considering I have never owned )or played) a GBA, but I do. I genuinely think the ads in the box are so cool and wish they would do that more in today’s world of gaming.
Recently got a refurbished GBA SP but I've noticed a problem where when I remove a cartridge the data on it is lost the next time I insert it. I am not sure if it does this for every game, I've only noticed it on one specific game and even then it only happens *sometimes*. Would this be an issue with the game or with the console, and is there a way to fix it?
Could both of these mods be installed on the same motherboard? It looks like I would have to put the flex amp on first, and then do the RGB kit. Would I have any issues with button presses due to stacked tolerances? I'm thinking about building another GBA SP from a bare mobo and wanted to do some mods besides the IPS and aftermarket shell.
If the flex amp is not compatible with the RGB kit, is there another way to boost just a little bit more volume out of the SP? Could the Helder's speaker upgrade give me a bit of volume boost by itself?
A bit of a tangent, but does anyone know if the GBA accelerator will work with the Insidegadgets RTC carts or an EZ Flash ODE in B mode?
Thanks!
(maybe this is better in console repair?)
I recently bought a game boy advance and absolutely love it. The only downside is obviously no backlight. I have seen a few options that require soldering and or cutting the case. I have also seen a few that do not require either. I own a soldering iron but am definitely not a pro. My biggest worry is that I will do it wrong and mess up my system. Do you guys have any advice or recommendations for a backlight mod? Or should I just buy one of those lights that plug into the top of the system
a year ago, I found this gba in my stuff but it wasn't working so I went to the game shop to restore it. I fell in severe depression for months and totally forgot about this, yesterday my girl came home with it plus she asks the seller to put an IPS screen on it ... love her sm (I already order new shell & buttons, I'll put some news soon !)
Hello, so a few months ago I lost my GBA at a park but I wanted to play FireRed (was a bit sad but decided to emulate the game) while looking for the rom I downloaded a different one by mistake after it downloaded i realized my mistake but I decided to check the files and all I can remember is:
Vampires.
A map with a giant fish on the bottom left.
Multiple sprites of different characters.
(And I think it was a "semi-openworld") I deleted the rom from my PC but now I wanna see what that game was about and I just can't find it no Matter how hard I try. If anyone knows a GBA game that's similar to what I described plz lemme know
Missing from the pic is my new2ds xl pokeball edition and all my pokemon ds and 3ds games
Hi all.
Today on 5 hour I get Box Protectors for my Japanese GameBoy Advance consoles. I have an Orange one CIB and an Pink Transparant one CIB.
They look as new. My mother knows which Dutch shop I can transfer for Box Protectors. I has this the same for my Japanese GameBoy Advance game imports. As example Densetsu No Stafy series and Super Robot Wars Original Generations series.
I hope you like my pictures. They shines together.
So I tried playing my old GBA from back in the day, its a super mario bros 3 and when I try to play the story mode that's what happens, just the same texture switching back and forth like the screen is stuck on one textrue and repeats it on the whole screen, any ideas? And if so can I fix it?
Problem with GBA SP 001
So i bought a GBA SP 001. Everything works fine, except the power LED. When console is turned on it does nothing, however, when turning off, it flickers red for a brief sec and goes away. I tried cleaning the power switch and nothing works.
I have a copy of Pokemon Emerald with a dead battery, the save file was started when the battery was already dead.
From my understanding, when the battery dies and the file was created say 365 days before that, RTC is still paused after replacing the battery until it catches up to 365 days.
If the file was started with no RTC, is it set to Jan 1 2000 already? So replacing the battery will start RTC events with no issue since it'll be in sync?
Tried booting up my e reader to use with Pokémon emerald and every time I press on scan a code the system restarts or shuts off. Haven’t had this issue before. Any ideas on how to fix it or what could be the issue?
Just got this bad boy and love the way it feels. Very premium playing experience .
Mine is missing the piece that clips onto the gameboy itself. Does anyone know where I can buy just the clip part?
I pulled out my old sp and and micro and realized neither would charge so I decided a new battery for each was needed. I replaced my sp battery and it turns orange for a second and then shuts off. I left it plugged in over night and nothing. Is t'here something else I should check if I can't get the console to charge?
I am trying to find the pokemon set as a gift. I looked on eBay, amazon, Etsy and marketplace. I found a set of all 5 but I don't know if they're a fake or no. Would you pay 200 euros for all 5? Or would they be fake? If you can link me the links (preferably Europe since I cannot ship from US sites) I'd appreciate it
