Im not trying to say the GBA is pointless (I think its a great idea) and I know it has sold millions, with Nintendo owning 90% of Japans portable gaming market, and virtually all of the UK's, but I think it should have been more successful. Where are all the superb games? They are on the GC. I think GBA should have came out a year later so that GC could have died down a bit, allowing a stack of games for the GBA. Please post your views.

Most of them American - Street Fighter and Wario 4 are Japanese.
Where did you get Advance Wars and Street Fighter from? (import probably) but I thought that Advance Wars wasn't out is America yet.
Oh - Castlevania too - another corker.
I am a post-teenage age and have, wait while I count the wee pile sitting beside the PC... 10 games.
Advance Wars
Chu Chu Rocket
Final Fight One
Mario Kart Advance
Rayman Advance
Super Street Fighter II X
Wario Land 4
Tony Hawk
Konomi Krazy Racers
Kuru Kuru Kurininininininiagngisa
Hmmm, since March that is. I think the Dreamcast is the only console I've ever accumulated games quicker for - and that's only because I bought it so late in its life.

Sorry for annoying so many people!! I know it was succesful-it just could have been more succesful. I only know one person who owns a GBA- and he has 1 game (Mario which I used to play on the NES). When I say their arn't much good games I meant ones for the older (as in teenage upwards) game players. GBC had Tomb Raider and Grand Theft Auto- where is this on the GBA? If they bring out games like that with improved graphics then maybe that total of 1 people will increase. They have Tony Hawk's and thats a good start, but im not the type of person who plays Pokemon all day.
Again, sorry to upset you Poke fans and people like that. Where i live most people dont own GBA's, they stick to Resi, Perfect Dark, and GTA and other decent games like that.

They already are!
And in saying all this you've got to keep in mind that they haven't released a Pokemon game for it yet - as soon as one of them is launched GBA hardware will be flying off the shelves at obsceen rates.
The GBA sold 500,000 in Europe in the opening week!
It's the fastest selling console of all time!

GBA not a success? It is the fastest selling console to date. Beating the records set by the PS2.
