Version comparisons

Phantasy Star

Note: To simulate more detail, the Game Boy Advance version rapidly changes between two discrete images. This means detail is lost in static screenshots.

Game Boy Advance

Phantasy Star is the only game in the set where all the graphics have been resized for the smaller GBA screen resolution. It is also the only game where the colour palette has not been noticeably lightened to compensate for the console's non-lit screen.

Phantasy Star II attempts to use as many of the raw Mega Drive assets as possible, but is forced to scale some elements to fit on the Game Boy Advance's smaller screen.
