The DF Retro Super Show returns with another big signature episode. It's 25 years since the launch of the brilliant Game Boy Advance - so what better reason is there for John, Try and Coury to discuss the origins of the system, share anecdotes about the launch and then to spend well over two hours discussing every launch game in every territory?

It's the Digital Foundry Supporter Program that makes the DF Retro Super Show possible! Support the team, support the show, get high quality, ad-free video downloads of all DF content: patreon.com/digitalfoundry
