Elevator Action Old & New is an update to the Elevator Action video game. The game consist of the old and new game modes. In the old mode, it is a straight port of the NES game. In new mode, player can choose between 3 characters like Elevator Action EX, but bullet and grenades are now limited, and are counted as separate inventories. In addition, each stage has time limits. New items include sunglasses, bullet, watch, hamburger. There are 8 buildings in 1 player mode. In 2 player mode, players can play cooperatively or against each other. 4th character can be unlocked in new mode by completing new mode with all 3 characters. This character has faster movement than others, can fall for 1 whole floor without taking damage, but it cannot gain or use automatic weapon, and has maximum 1 life point at the beginning of a building.
There are two components for playing a gba Elevator Action Old & New game on your PC. The first component is the emulation program which can imitate the gba OS and software.
The second component is the Elevator Action Old & New game itself to play on the emulator.
Step 1: you can start by downloading a reliable and bug free emulator. We’d suggest VBA-M – it’s open source, fast and one of the most frequently updated.
Once you have finished downloading VBA-M, extract the downloaded .zip file to a location, for example your Desktop. After, double click the visualboyadvance-m.exe file in order to start the emulator.
Your emulator will now be ready to play Elevator Action Old & New. But now you’ll need to find the correct ROMs online. A ROM is essentially a virtual version of the game that needs to be loaded into the emulator.
Step 2: return to Visualboyadvance-m and hit File > Open. Navigate to the downloaded .zip file and double click it to open it. The game will now run on the emulator and you can play the game freely.
Tip: Saving games on an emulator functions a little differently. The integrated save system will not save your progress.
Instead, you’ll need to click File > Save State and then choose an empty slot. You can save your progress in whatever point you like within the game, not only on the official checkpoints offered by the game.
When playing in the future and you want to continue from your saved state, you can use File > Load State to load up the game from exactly where you last saved it.
