GBA music that's not awful? What is this wizardry?

It was definitely rare (err, Rare?) for the sampling rate to be very high on GBA just because of how much CPU it consumes. That's the one place where I think Nintendo dropped the ball on the GBA... although I don't hate the sound, either. That's a really nice partial rendition of Aquatic Ambience.
Circle of the Moon does have a great soundtrack, though. Aria as well. I still like Harmony, but I know why folks don't like it.

There's plenty of good GBA tunes out there. But on the whole, I think we can say GBA music suffers from inferior tech compared to say the SNES. I mention SNES, because graphically GBA is most similar to that platform, but audibly not so much.

I wonder if they gave it a crappy speaker because they knew the sound quality was bad anyway. Honestly, with the lack of backlight, it's a miracle the original GBA model took off like it did. I found it made the games nearly unplayable. Luckily they fixed that part.

I, on the other hand, am never hyperbolic, and certainly not for comedic effect. Also, the N64 is a trash fire that no one should love, and if you do, you should feel bad about it.

I am glad to see you've come to your senses. Must have been the Vita's all powerful aura emanating throughout your house.
