Game Boy Advance
The Game Boy Advance (GBA), released in 2001, marked a significant evolution in portable gaming technology. As a 32-bit handheld console, it delivered graphics comparable to the Super Nintendo, making it a powerhouse for on-the-go gaming. The system featured a wide 2.9-inch screen and supported backward compatibility with all Game Boy and Game Boy Color games. The GBA became home to definitive versions of many franchises: Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire introduced abilities and double battles, Metroid Fusion delivered atmospheric side-scrolling action, and Fire Emblem made its Western debut. The console excelled at ports of SNES classics like A Link to the Past and Super Mario World, while original titles like Advance Wars and Golden Sun showcased its RPG capabilities. The GBA SP redesign in 2003 finally added a backlit screen and clamshell design. With over 81 million units sold, the GBA remains beloved for its extensive library spanning every genre.
