It depends what I'm doing. If I'm trying to listen to TV I'll have the volume off on my GBA. If I'm not listening to TV I'll usually have the volume on.

sometimes if i already heard the music a couple of times i turn the sound off. but usually if I'm playing the GBA i turn it off to save some battery. If I'm using VBA I usually turn on the sounds <_<

I usually play with the sound off cause most of the time I'm watching a walkthrough for the game on youtube and I don't want the sound to overlap it <_<

Always on. I tend to end up making a mistake or not watching what I'm doing if there isn't any sound to follow with.

Personally, I play with the sound off for the simple fact I dislike the sound of most gba games and the constant dings from the games...

I play the gba with the sound off most of time, I do this because let's face it some of the in-game music is crap.

I play with the sound off, usually listening to music if I'm on my computer using an emulator, or watching tv in the background if its with the actual system.

I have to play with the sound on. THe first thing that grabs my attention in a game is the sound. Without it, even the best gameplay gets boring.

Do you play with sound on or off when you're playing GBA games? Off

Always play with the sound off, mainly because I find myself playing in public areas such as the Airport, waiting for flights
