My old copy of SMB deluxe on the game boy color was my latest subject for battery replacement. Shame the file got wiped, as IIRC it had stickers or stationary or something that you could write messages on that middle school me probably messed around with.
In a new game of Super Mario Bros Deluxe, Luigi has the number 1 high score. I find that oddly wholesome.

Recently I’ve been addicted to Mario Bros on Super Mario Advance 3.

I traded in my GBA for a SP version and almost immediately regretted that decision. The backlight was nice, but my hands would get cramped before long with it being such a small unit.

Yeah, my sister bought an SP and my assessment was more or less the same. But the original GBA screen was terrible. That pic is under a really bright work lamp, and it was difficult to find the narrow angle where the screen reflected enough light to be visible but also wasn’t reflecting the lamp LEDs. Back in the day I played it wearing a pair of microscope glasses, which were a regular glasses frame with a sort of jeweler’s loupe mounted in the left eye, and I had to hold it with my nose almost touching the screen. As you can probably guess that wasn’t great for getting a good light angle.

Get an IPS upgrade. It’s relatively inexpensive off Ali. I bought one for SP with shell, it’s modified to fit the panel so no need for surgical changes to the original shell. Now, it’s so bright that my wife complains when I power it on at night in bed or while she drives. It drains the battery faster, but I just pause and charge. I supposed non-SP might want rechargeable port mods.
GBA is so sick. I kept my broken GBA for +10 years before I finally had disposable income to fix it up. Honestly, I regret not doing it sooner.

Even 2000s Nintendo knew Luigi was based (allegedly)

Why the fuck does Peach need rescue if she has a better score than Mario???
Sas@piefed.blahaj.zone 3 weeks ago
She doesn’t need rescue. She just wants to hang with Bowser from time to time but Mario is a controlling jealous partner and can’t have that.
