Neat Little Sound Trick
While turning on you GBA, hold the Start and Select button to hear a classic tune from a Mario Game. Make sure you have game inside the GBA. After the sound is done and the logo is gone, press any key to hear another sound. Note, this only works with GBA games loaded!
Pause loading
At the introduction screen after the first sound (swoosh), press Start + Select. The Nintendo logo should disappear as it makes the Mario pause sound, and the system will pause. Then press any button after the second sound (ping) to bring back the Nintendo logo with another sound, and the game will continue to load. Note: This only works for Game Boy Advance games. This feature is intended for use when you link to another multi-player Game Boy Advance game that requires only one cart, without leaving your system with no game.
