I was playing a lot of Final Fantasy VII when it first came out around 1996, and used a paper strategy guide.

I got a one-handed controller (an ASCII Grip that was amazing for old JRPGs. I still miss having it for those kinds of chill games where I don’t feel like I need to be hunching over a controller.

I was always super jealous of this controller but I couldn’t afford it when it first came out!

I love ridiculous controllers.

I happened upon the original for $20 in Wal Mart in 1995 and I’ve been playing it on and off ever since!

One of the best games ever made.

Well you don’t look a day over 21…

Sounds like they should have called it Underscale

I’ll see myself out

I don’t know how popular it was overall but I really enjoyed Super Mario Wonder!

I even remember buying a nice glacier blue rechargeable battery pack and never using it!

I wish I could buy everything in glacier blue now.

Some Game Boy Advance games actually had a software-based sleep mode!

You pressed L+R and Select.

On top of that, I was always really impressed by the GBA’s battery life but maybe I’m just old.
