The lack of headphones? I had to look it up. The GBA SP didn’t have a port, but the original and the micro GBAs did have it.

There’s some awesome mods to restore headphone jacks in the SP, but I myself prefer the original GBA form factor anyway.

Actually, my preferred ways to play GBA are in the following order of preference:

  • Analogue Pocket

  • GameCube GameBoy Player (with a SNES controller using an adapter I intended to link but the Etsy shop appears to be gone now)

  • MiSTer GBA core

  • OG GBA with a screen mod
