Seems to me like all the gameboy formats featured a wide selection of racing and platform games but not a lot else! I understand that these games work well on the portable pal but wot I really wan2 c r sum good sports games! Can any1 name a decent football game on any of the gameboys??! Platformers and racing games don't hold my attention, wot I want from a game is varied action that u can only get from a sports sim!

Well if you are so annoyed by the fact then maybe you should make your own game!

Tony Hawks Pro Skater 2 is a great sports game on the Game Boy Advance!

I know it's not made by Nintendo, but it's licensed by Nintendo!

There are plenty of different games on the Game Boy, Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance! There are puzzle, adventure, strategy, RPG, sports, platform, mystery, etc

You've just got to know where to look!

Sorry, you'll have to wait a while for my answer while i try and decipher what you're actually saying. Off to the WWF forum, wish me luck....





Ok, now understand what you're saying. Here's my answer:

You won't much else on the GB or the GBC as it can't handle anything else. There are probably claculators availbe now that are more powerful the the GB.

But now the GBA is out we'll see different genres available for it. THPS2 and GT Advance show what can be done on the platform, so hopefully that future should look even better.
