Solving the Gameboy DS or Advance Conundrum

  • Thread starter Nothing000
  • Start date
In summary, the person was reminiscing about Mario games and realized they had never played Mario 64. They wanted to find a way to play it without purchasing a Nintendo 64 and discovered it was re-released for the Gameboy, but they accidentally bought the wrong version. They then ask about the compatibility of DS games with the Gamecube and PSP and provide a link for potentially finding a ROM for the game.

Ah man. I was thinking about all the great times I have had playing mario games when I was younger, and I was wishing that there was a new super mario brothers adventure game that I had not played yet, and I realized that I have never played Mario 64. Everyone says that is the best one too.
I have a GameCube, but no Nintendo 64. So I thought about how I could play this game without purchasing a 64, and I read that they re-released this game on the game boy. So I went to ebay to buy one of those add on pieces of hardware that allows you to play gameboy games on your gamecube. So I won the auction, and I just realized that this mario game is for the gameboy DS, not the gameboy ADVANCE!
I don't want it now. What do I do?
