The only signs of breakdown from my GBA SP is the power switch, sometimes when I turn it on it turns off straight away

i have the normal GBA. only flaws it has now is the the lid for the battery's is broken (so i use tape to keep it together) and the Start and Select buttons sometimes don't work. but that is all there is to it really.

Oh, I thought he was talking about another list-y thing-y he brought up a while ago. Like a list of mess ups.

RIP original Xbox

I didn't have it, but playing Voodoo Vince in Gamestop was so satisfying.

What about that old Galactica thing that only played Galactica.

RIP Gameboy Color. You were my first. However scant your colors, may they not be forgot.

RIP Nintendo 64. Thank you for introducing me to the world of 3D gaming. You shall forever be known as my minimum level of acceptable graphics.

RIP Gameboy Advance. The last warrior of the no-backlight frontier.

RIP Gamecube. For though you had no online capabilities and only one analog stick on your controller, you gave us Paper Mario & The Thousand Year Door, and for that I will forever be thankful

RIP NES

I was 3 when I first played it (and when everyone else had an N64, no less), the memories I made with the three Super Mario Bros. titles will never be forgotten.

RIP
Pong "The pioneer of video games."

Gamecube had 2 analog sticks AND online functionality, though with a very limited range of games. You need to research better Sonny =P

Thousand year door is one of my favorite games though.

GoldenFox93 · « **Reply #36 on:** November 28, 2010, 03:04:48 PM »

RIP Megadrive-
The memories I had with you and Altered Beast, Sonic the Hedgehog 1&2, Golden Axe, Cool Spot and Ecco the Dolphin will never be forgotten.

C-stick doesn't count, it's only good for camera and smash movers in "Melee"; it's not like the Xbox and Playstation that have 2 analogs working in conjunction.

Metroid Prime uses similar dual-stick movement when compared to COD or Halo. As does Luigi's Mansion. There just weren't enough games to take advantage of it.

What about Medal of Honor?
