Surround Sound

A while back, with my Gameboy Advance, not my SP cuase it wouldnt work, I would connect my computer speakers to the headphone jack and listen to my video games in fullness of surround sound. Has anyone else done that?

Actually i've tried that with my friend while we were playing four swords and it works well and it gives a better atmosphere of the game.

Wow I gotta try that. Does it give the game a more realistic feel?

in the atmosphere im sure the music would sound the best and links sword gutting through stuff

Yeah the music was awesome and me and my friend want to try it again someday. It was really cool.

How exactly do you get surround sound from headphones...it makes no sense, I tell ya!

It's very easy actually. Theres a small place on the GBA were you can put headphones into. Instead of headphones you can put speakers. There ya go, try it sometime.

Well the sound of Game Boy is stereo 2.0 so the fact to insert Speakers just give the impression to have surround sound!But ut's true that you feel totaly surrounded by sound...

Hmm... why I haven't moved this to General Gaming yet is beyond me.

Moved.

And I doubt you could get surround sound from a GBA, just stereo, I would suspect, as La Hire said.

There's no surround sound on GBA!You you believe there is because the speakers make a kind of "surrounding" sound but that's not real sound!

GBA sound is a 8bits sound so it's impossible to get surround with it...
