GBA Games working on N-gage

[Zenden]

My friend once say he will definitely buy a hp that can play GBA games,no matter nokia make or not! Even LG make one,he will buy!

I had a fantasy that a gadget specs is first based on GBA set,then they add the hp capabilties into it.So that only by installing a GBA software emulator into it will make the hp able to play GBA games properly and also bypass the copyright issues.Won't that hp be a top sales hp.

Of course,the issue of buying a GBA set will be cheaper than a hp will come in but the problem is 'Will u bring along a hp all the time or a GBA set?' A hp can play GBA will be perfect ,right?

(If n-gages is based on these idea,I bet n-gage sales will be the best of all nokia product)

eh... i dont really understand what u mean. yeah, IF the n-gage was a gba + a phone. but it isnt.

gba will never play on n-gage or any other s60 phones currently out.

It is a fantasy! I never say n-gage can play GBA! By the way,isn't this every n-gage owner dream of?

Not really, n-gage games have better graphs than GBA.

And i was dreaming of playing XBOX games on it not GBA :-P

PS2 is no match in terms of specs against XBOX but still a lot of people play PS2 than XBOX.WHY? It's the game title that counts ,not the specs! This apply to n-gage too.

Zenden,
What's a hp mate ???

:)

[Iceman5]

its a shame why so many good games come out for gba and not for n-gage. u can really pick any kind of game u want. there are currently 1525 (exactly) gba games out. and how many does n-gage have???? only a handfull... oh well, i have a gba so im not complaining :-P

[tzeonn]

hmmm... maybe nintendo goes hand in hand with a handphone company and comes up with a handphone, that can insert gba cartriages!

@seddoc hp = handphone.

[Musicb0ffin]

Yeah, but all the newer GBA games a shit!! There are shit games, then shitter sequils, then shitter sequils after that. All the good original games are in the past and no good games are out. Its become a toy rather than a gaming machine, which is a shame, cuz the first games were top notch.

Maybe now is a down time for GBA and the creator run out of ideas.Hope fully they can recover and continue to make some fines games!

[Iceman5]

there are still some new quality games for gba. like the new f-zero, swords of mana (GREAT!), golden sun 2, harvest moon, karnaaj rally (!), need for speed underground, sims, metroid fusion, blah blah blah.... but i agree that there are fewer and fewer good titles out.

[Seddoc36]

That Boktai one with the light sensitive cart looks pretty good.
New idea an all.

Need For Speed Underground? Is that out for GBA now?

[Iceman5]

Need For Speed Underground? Is that out for GBA now?
yes, its just like the ps2/pc version... just without the videos and of course much worse graphix..... and new tracks lol.

[iNF|NiTY]

Its shit. I remember the release of it, everyone hated it.

There is loads of good gba games though....

[gophermaster]

Oh okay...

[Iceman5]

i just tried the first race... i think it looks ok if u get into it... but maybe not. the tracks are kinda boring tho. and the graphix sux

[reficul_x]

though ngagae games graphics are better but gba library of games = much much more than ngage!

and i hate the thought of gba games make for ngage, thats so lame. ngage should make only exclusive games.

anyway, well i guess u cant really have both side of the world. its either serious game playing or a phone.

[gophermaster]

Yeah that's true, the GBA's game collection is huge in comparison to the N-Gage's game collection...

[PsychiatricHelp]

I would prefer a GBA emu over Yewnes

MArio Kart, Golden Sun (best RPG on a portable), Street Fighter 2,
mate the list goes on there are so many good games on GBA even though the good games are out numbered by bad games 4 to 1.

Speaking of Fantasys I had this dream that 2 hot asian lesbians were chasing me and .......................

[iNF|NiTY]

More like 100-1...GBA has far too many crap games.

[gophermaster]

100:1 sounds like a nice ratio of shit games to decent games on the GBA! :)

[sthegee]

They'll still be less than 20 games 4 the n-gage by at the end of the year.
tyhat sux

[gophermaster]

Maybe... Who knows. Nokia could bust out with a whole heap of games at one time...

[Goshogun]

You mean running GBA Emulator on HP Pocket PC?

Well i have a I-Mate...installed a Nes emulator...worked fine! same goes for the GB/GBC, Snes, Genesis and Gamegear!

Then i tried playing GBA games...maybe the emulator or my PPC can't handle it or GBA emulation on PPC's needs more power to run on a Playable speed.

[dave182]

Why wait a GBA emulator on N-gage?

GBA+Flash card = 200 euros and games are free.... forever.....

bye

[momagic]

this topic (i think) should be closed, lol, its too darn misleading :lol:

yes! thats very true! i just ordered my flash card.... should arrive in not too long

[reficul_x]

i gotten my gba flash cart at US$69 for a 256MB

its rather cheap... well for the pocket pc, u need to have a proper 400mhz running b4 u can set any gba rom running straight. but dun use any overclock app if u wanna run gba roms, it dun work that way....

@infinity, 100:1 is a cruel ratio... yeah there are many shitty games but there are many great games created for gba too! take for example, the sims! who can deny it as a great game?.....not to mention, fireemblem, goldensun(draggy dialog...), mario rpg, etc.....

[KaLmOoR101]

It would be great if u can play gba games in your n-gage with high quility sound right/?? :-P

[tzeonn]

getting out of point here... i will move this thread to lounge.

[iKwak]

Wonder when Nokia will drop the NGage product. Is it doing okay on sales?
