    Some Game Boy Advance games actually had a software-based sleep mode!

    You pressed L+R and Select.

    On top of that, I was always really impressed by the GBA’s battery life but maybe I’m just old.

      Same, I just don’t remember ever bothering about the battery life (unless it turned red) but with that long gaming sessions it would be a concern for kid me probably.

        I even remember buying a nice glacier blue rechargeable battery pack and never using it!

        I wish I could buy everything in glacier blue now.
