Bowser N64

Ah thanks. I will take your word to avoid Supercard. Do you think I'll be able to find an EZ at my FX Video Game Exchange store? That would be nice. I guess I could order online as well. My dad seems fascinated about my new GBA Micro. It amazes him of it's size. I told him that it has a 16 Mhz 32 bit processor. I know this is true, and I hope there is homebrew that can run well on such conditions? And the EZs run homebrew apps for GBA? And I'm pretty sure Micros will stand that cold, atari2600land. Nintendo builds their consoles well. The Urbz: Sims In The City for GBA ROM is 32 MB. Is this qualifying as a huge ROM that EZ will NOT run? I absolutely need that one to work. Super Mario Advance should run like candy, considering it's only 4 MB or so.

What qualify as HUGE ROMS? Is there a comprehensive list?

Ah. Well, which is best for me to get? Anyone know the price ranges? And no I do not have my Gameshark working. I did for a time, but it corrupted itself when I started freeing up space by deleting codes that came on it.

I sucked at this game last night. Died three times on the speed run. I just turned it off and went to bed. I was so far, and so frustrated when that happened.

Ah yes. I have heard of this EZ Flash thing. What do you mean by Mini SD card? Is that a Micro SD card? I have plenty of those. about how much is the EZ gonna cost me? I hear 20 bucks.

Ah thanks Wario. Maybe I can finally fix that problem of my lost The Urbz: Sims In The City cartridge by running the ROM on the GBA Micro? The Flash linker does that? what sort of memory card do I need to use the linker?

Okay. I'm making a run through this game on my GBA Micro! I'll post my time!

Yo man, I just bought me a Game Boy Micro. I have been playing around with it awhile, and I was wondering if the device has any secrets? Like... a hidden button combo code to get the screen brighter or sound louder or something? I don't know. Any thing cool?

Okay. The strange thing is... Game Boy Advance Micro never attracted me as a console SOLELY. One day I went into FX Video Game Exchange and saw one laying in a display case in the used systems. I was like "Huh. Yeah. GBA Micro. Interesting.". Little did I know that in just a few weeks I would buy one. Ha ha. I'm VERY pleased with it. Well, today I bought my GBA Micro. I hope I'll love it, it costed me a nice, friendly 43 bucks. I waltzed into FX Video Game Exchange today and bought it. The clerk was not feeling well. I guessed he had the flu, maybe allergies, I don't know. I didn't ask. Anyway we got into a discussion about Game Boy systems and such. He told me that the GBA Micro I was about to buy was traded in by one of his employees. He said his friend got tired of the Micro and traded it in for a DS instead. I thought that was interesting. We also talked about the fact that the "EXT." slot on the top back of the Micro was similar to the receiving slot of a USB connector. This is also where the GBA Micro charger is plugged in. The clerk was like "Hell no man! It's not USB! Nintendo made it some weird nonstandard connection instead." I said "Yeah. They always do that. They did that with SP too." We talked a bit longer, then I had to go. Now, I heard on the internet from various sources that the Micro could not do Multiplayer on GBA games because it lacked the link cable connection! BAH HUMBUG! Just pick up the specific GBA MICRO link cable to do this. Another thing AWESOME about the GBA Micro is it has a removable faceplate. Scratched screen? No problem! Just replace with a new faceplate! It's got good sound through the headphone jack. A great control pad as well, much similar to the DS's buttons. The L and R buttons seem awesome as well, though they were designed to be pushed nearer the center of the unit, versus the edges, like DS. My favorite features of the Micro are that volume AND screen brightness can be adjusted by the same rocker switch on the side of the system. Of course, you must push L AND the rocker switch for adjusting brightness. The beautiful thing about the digital notch by notch, button operated volume is that you can play at a LOW volume, easily. This eliminates boosting the volume on accident as sometimes happens with the older GBAs when your hand slips and hits the volume slider. You can also be precisely SURE of what volume you're playing at. As for the removable faceplates, consider that an awesome step for style. And something new I just figured out. On those GBA games where you can have sleep mode, the two LEDs behind the Start and Select buttons will flash to let you know the GBA is asleep, like a FREAKING LAPTOP! Just face it. The Game Boy Advance Micro is awesome. If you like it? Get it. I highly recommend it. HIGHLY. Okay fine... I ENTIRELY RECOMMEND IT!

Yeah, well Super Mario 64 is INGRAINED in my BRAIN.

Heck yeah man! Super Mario 64 Bob-Omb Battlefield music them is the best. The Perfect dark Carrington Institute theme is awesome. Come in second. Also the King Tower theme music in The Urbz: Sims In The City comes in at third place. Donkey Kong 64 has got some sweet tunes as well. I'll put the jungle theme as fourth. I've got pages of these, I could go on.

It is not annoying and it is easy for me to read, and others as well. With the small font comes eyestrain. Believe me or don't. Take it or leave it.

Well, I AM a dragon just FYI, and this is Times New Roman, size 4, and should be orange.

Oh I've only just started the speed runs. They will get better. And I type with this font cause I like it. and I don't know hat's up with the trailing tags.

Does that mean my times are considered good?

Well I got to Wart in about 16 minutes.

Well I never got that done yesterday at all. I could not seem to play through the game once. Today I hope I'll have better luck.

Well I think I'll run through Super Mario Advance again on a speedrun in the car where I'm going. I'll post my time.

Well tonight I ran through Super Mario Advance nonstop on a speed run and got the time of 00:24:25:78, that is 24 minutes, 25 seconds, and 78 tenths. It was not altogether the BEST time, as I died at least 7 times. Not exactly what I was planning. I Googled "Super Mario Advance Speed Runs" and saw none, so, I can set the first standards I guess. It's an awesome game of forgotten glory, that I just started picking up to play again on my ORIGINAL Game Boy Advance Glacier. I had fun. Times will improve on this race. Here in the attached file is my first ever recorded time. Like I said, they will get MUCH better. This game has glitches that I know will help me out. Oh the good times when I was younger when the Game Boy Advance hit the shelves... ==================================== Super Mario Advance Speed Run Times ==================================== (Times end with character going through door at end of beating Wart) 00:24:25:78 00:20:23:28 00:19:40:18

You think you're funny? Don't piss a dragon off. Heed this advice.

.............. I LOST ONE OF MY GBA CARTRIDGES. I USE MY DS TO RUN CARTRIDGES CURRENTLY ALREADY. TELL ME IF THE EARTH IS ROUND? DUH. EXCUSE ME FOR ASKING.

..........

Yes to be honest I was AMAZED when I heard the power that the GBA has. I have been underestimating my Game Boy Advance and Game Boy Advance SP as well. I knew it was powerful as soon as I bought The Urbz: Sims In The City for it. That changed the way I thought of my GBA forever. It's just strange how the DS can emulate NES, SNES, Game Boy color and Atari and even others, but not GBA. I was especially surpised to know that the GBA console uses a 32 bit language, and that is just ONE step down from our modern 64 bit languages?

I have one question for you Bowser N64. You do know that Bowser isn't a dragon? Just thought that I would ask since you seem to have a liking for dragons. Um, did you know that he IS? He breathes fire, he has scales. I used my imagination. Also just FYI, most fan pictures of Bowser have a dragonlike appearance... There's no SURE way of knowing. One must use imagination and decide for theirselves. I decide he is.

But, I'm a real dragon, and you being a "Dragonstomper" hurts my feelings! *Sticks forked tongue out mouth, then brings it back in* *Straightens crown* HA! *Looks sad, you can tell by looking into his eyes, but he tries not to show it* *Wings shake nervously*
