Game Boy Advance

The Game Boy Advance (often shortened to GBA) (ゲームボーイアドバンス, Gēmu Bōi Adobansu) is the successor of the Game Boy Color. It was released in Japan on March 21, 2001; in North America on June 11, 2001; and in Europe on June 22, 2001. With a 32-bit memory and a 20% larger screen than other Game Boy installments, it allowed for much more advanced graphics than its predecessors. A Link to the Past was remade for the Game Boy Advance and came with a small, multiplayer Zelda game called Four Swords Later, an all-new Zelda title was released: The Minish Cap. Three kinds of Game Boy Advance systems were produced: All three versions maintain the Backwards Compatibility function introduced with the classic GameBoy Advance. Backwards Compatibility allows Gameboy and Gameboy Color gamepacs to be played on the GBA. An option to widen the gameplay screen from the smaller predecessors, can be toggled with the L and R buttons.
