jonovate Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 I was planning on buying a cobalt one today, but backed out for some concious reason, i have the money, but im 19, lol. I can get it + Splinter Cell in a bundle offer for $169.99 CAD.... So who owns one and if u do, love or hate it? There are so many old-school SNES games that totalyl rock, as well as new ones: Something intrigued me about them, i dunno if its the old school titles they have, or the portability, etc. Only ****ty thing is graphix are pure crap from the screenshots of seen. Titles that intrigue me: Rock N' Roll Racing Mario Kart Super Circuit The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3 WarioWare Inc.: Mega MicroGame$ Crazy Taxi: Catch a Ride Simpsons: Road Rage Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising THPS titles Drome Racers James Bond 007: Nightlife Megaman titles Mortal Kombat Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow Virtua Tennis Metroid Fusion Golden Sun - Lost Age TBR: Double Dragon Mario and Luigi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonovate Posted July 30, 2003 Author Share Posted July 30, 2003 Boffa, he shipps to US only..... right now Future Shop has a good combo if they have a location in Winnipeg, SP + Splinter Cell for $169.99,. whereas SP alone costs $149.99 and Splinter Cell is $49.99 From what ive gathered, Walmart is the cheapest to buy games, $1 - $5 cheaper. Also i saw the Top 10 GBA games all for $39.99 today when i was there (Future Shop) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

..... Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 The Uncle Clive 'Gameboy Player' GameCube peripheral. Savings gamers cash the world over Uncle Clive's money saving tip: No:33 GameBoy Advance Player Far from rewarding patient GameBoy Advance owners with a lead which would them allow them to hook their handhelds up to a TV, Nintendo have seen fit to ask gamers to shell out for a new peripheral, the GameBoy Player, which fits under their GameCubes (provided of course, they already have one). Always one to try and save his loyal readers a few quid, Uncle Clive has devised a cheaper method of achiveing basically the same thing... Uncle Clive's GameBoy Advance games player. (pictured above). Simply place your old SNES (or purchase one for ?10 from e-bay) under your GameCube and enjoy the following benefits: ? Play Gameboy Advance games YEARS BEFORE THEY COME OUT FOR THE HAND-HELD. ? Over 2000 games already available (in your loft or ?3 each on e-bay) ? Use existing SNES controller with its USEABLE 'D-Pad.' ? Show a greedy entertainment giant that you aren't prepared to shell out four times for the same piece of hardware (SNES, GameBoy Advance, Gameboy Advance SP, GameBoy Player) ayer) Source Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Dave- Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 LOL nice. i had a GBA, but the GBA SP is just awesome. It also has a COOL image rather than a kiddie one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malechai Veteran Posted July 30, 2003 Veteran Share Posted July 30, 2003 i have the cobalt SP and its great. I'd buy one again if I didn't already have one. game graphics are great considering the power they're fitting into such a small console. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schuyler Posted August 3, 2003 Share Posted August 3, 2003 Definitely get a GBA SP, I can't see how I ever played with the original GBA. I wanted a black one, but that was only in Japan so I got a Platinum. Right now I have Super Mario Advance 2 & 3, Pokemon Sapphire, and Super Monkey Ball Jr. Some games I plan on getting are: Legend Of Zelda: Link To The Past Super Ghouls N Ghosts Super Mario Advance 1 Castlevania: Aria Of Sorrow Street Fighter Alpha Megaman & Bass Sonic Advance 2 Wario Ware Inc: Mega Microgame$ oh and I hear Jet Grind Radio ($19.99) is awesome on the GBA Just putting in my 2 cents. Definitely get a GBA SP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
