Can you believe it? Nintendo’s Game Boy Advance (GBA) was released on this day 20 years ago! Celebrate by checking out the Did You Know Gaming? episode below to brush up on your GBA history:
The GBA was the follow-up to the popular Game Boy system and featured all of Nintendo’s hit franchises at the time, including Pokémon, Super Mario, The Legend of Zelda and even Metroid. The handheld started its life as Project Atlantis but had several iterations. The Game Boy Advance SP and Game Boy Micro were made later in the handheld’s life, and the console also had a private adapter to work with the Nintendo 64 (N64), and was emulated on the 3DS and Wii U, and will likely come to the Nintendo Switch.
