GBA has practically no bass and really [parasitic bomb] sampling for music and general audio quality compared to SNES. Things often get very bit-crushed and the like. An example off the top of my head would be the ports of Donkey King Country. In fact due to how bassy DKC3's soundtrack was, they just replaced it all together with new compositions by David Wise for the GBA version.

Heh, the discussion on art continued for about another page until it went off in another direction (still reading through the massive walls of text).  I backtracked to that discussion briefly to add more artist insight.  Now to finish reading the last two pages...

The thing is that there's hacks to fix the problems of Final Fantasy 6 Advance so I'm asking why is being a GBA game a problem when you can fix the sound, color, and altered scenes?

I thought they changed the DKC3 soundtrack because they got David Wise to do it since he didn't do the original DKC3 soundtrack? I mean I'm probably wrong but that would make more sense than them just changing it because the Bass was [parasitic bomb] on the GBA.

I'd love to hear those compositions in High quality though, there are some really good tracks in there but the GBA doesn't do them justice.

I'm not 100% sure but that's just what I've heard being a factor on top of Wise's return. The GBA soundtrack is overall superior though I'd say, yea.

Sir Monocle P. Pretentious Esquire has returned to the Diversity thread with another big block of text for me to read.

You can't hack in better sound hardware. A GBA game soundhack is like a giving an amputee a fake leg.

Ah I see, still the sound track of Final Fantasy 6 Advance wasn't that bad, in fact they improved the Opera Scene vocals.

Yeah it was because the original soundtrack would sound like [parasitic bomb] on the GBA hardware so he just made a new soundtrack. He did work on the original one too though.

My thread of Random Crap

Who loves Grape Soda? Sapph loves Grape Soda! Is it true? Is it true? Ohyesohyesohyes it's true-oo~ I do I do I do I do-oo~

I do declare that the Diversity thread is quite indubitably a bastion of high auteur discussion, wot wot. *sticks nose in air, nods curtly, and reads pretentiously through a monocle.*

If you would pardon my brief absence, I shall have a spot of tea. *pinkie*

QuickEdit: More of the discussion.

I think I'd rather stare at Lando in a cape.

I finally dropped some much-needed snark in that thread.  Now to go busy myself with other things... or see if I can buy a monocle on eBay.

I think its really cool that by July I'll have both my Inner Sailor Senshi and MMPR/Zyuranger teams completed.

And then they'll stand side by side.

Blue Valkyrie

Been wanting to get the Blue vs Flare Star rematch started but I just haven't had any inspiration lately.  -AC

I should totally see if i can get a monocle with my right lens prescription.  Screw you, reading glasses or a need for bifocals!  I'll use a monocle!

So I made a terrible bear pun in the Something Awful Kickstarter thread when they started talking about Bear Simulator.
This is what happened.

Now to look up some poses and sketch for a bit...

Wait, Little Bear had human characters?

Wow, how the hell did I forget that? All I remember are the animals.

Yeah they had one token human at least.

Don't you remember the episode where they go swimming and she gets down to her bloomers? Oh yeah, show me some of that undefined lower leg.
