#gba urbz

[thesimquarter]

You can post one thing or multiple things, up to you. And, preferably, most entries are posted on November 9th, 2024, which is the date that all console versions of the Urbz alongside the GBA version were released in North America, two decades prior!

If participating, please tag your post as #urbz handheld 20th anniversary. You can also tag me or send the post to me if this doesn’t work for you. I do plan on reblogging entries!

Further specification under the cut.

You can create fan-art or fan-fiction, but if you’re not skilled nor confident at either of those, you’re not limited to just them.

If you’re mostly a Sims player like me, you can share recreations of the locations and characters in whatever game you prefer! You can post analysis on parts of the game, post your head canons on the characters/world, or talk about any other ideas you've had.

You can even do something as simple as telling us all about what you liked with the game and your experiences with it or even making a ranking of the characters based off of whatever criteria you want. You could even just post some screenshots you took while playing! Do whatever works for you!

The goal of this event is to get people talking and thinking about The Urbz: Sims in the City during/around its anniversary. I want people to do whatever the hell they want, but I also want to make sure to provide some ideas as a starting point for people who may want to particpate.

Also! Since all versions of the The Urbz: Sims in the City weren’t published in all territories for a few months, you can participate until March 11th, 2025, which is 20 years after The Urbz for DS released in Europe. So, if you want to participate but don't have the time, didn't see this post, or whatever you're doing is taking longer than expected, don't sweat!

A quick little drawing for The Urbz' 20th anniversary!! The entire town is just full of atmosphere and detail, but this bus is one of my favorite setpieces of the game!

Some Urbs Sims for the 20th anniversary

I don't have anything special for the urbs 20th anniversary, but I have these little guys lying around so I might as well show them off!

They are for my Strangetown Subhood and will be included in it when it's done. I will also be uploading an empty version and all the sims as bodyshop files, but I can't say when that will be. So I guess this is also kind of an update post.

The Urbz GBA/DS Map 💛

Couldn't find this particular map ripped and uploaded anywhere so I just went ahead and ripped it myself from the game.

If you'd like to download it I uploaded a few versions on Imgur here. I really don't know why it's flagged as mature but I promise there's nothing explicit in there lol. Anyways, there's a 1x, 2x and 4x resolution available for you to choose :)

The Urbz DS/GBA Lost Tracks

Some early versions of songs, and a few short tracks that were never used in the final game.

Songs were recorded from the original source files, so they are a lot smoother than they would have been if they were recorded from original hardware.

Track List:

0:00 Urbania Day - early version

2:07 Urbania Night - early version

3:10 Oldies - first draft (started as Create-A-Sim)

3:22 (Untitled) - could have been draft for a minigame

3:44 Trance (unused)

4:02 (EDIT) was a placeholder track from Bustin' Out, not a lost Urbz track after all

Usual Movie Night

This one is an oldie as you can tell from the style but I wanna post it here. Might consider a rerender of this one at some point.

hello.

Replaying the Urbz on GBA again

It really sucks one in once it starts again

*swinging pocket watch back and forth* you want to play Urbz: sims in the city for GBA so badly, go play Urbz: sims in the city for GBA

While this excites me, it also... concerns me. When she mentioned the Urbz & Bustin' Out, they ONLY showed screenshots from the GBA versions (which are definitely aimed for children, unlike the console versions). this feels intentional, and it makes me suspect if they do a full fledge remake, it's gonna be based on the GBA ones so they can make them "kid friendly" as that fits the Current Image of the series.

I love the Urbz
