OláHello everyone I like the English language I want to learn English there are job vacancies in the world But I don't know which game I can start playing to learn English. Does anyone have a suggestion for a GBA game I can play so I can learn. I can already read the basics. If anyone wants to help me?

Anything; if you are young enough. I learned english basically when I started playing video games, but specifically PS1 as a kid. Someone pointed out some words and I just started to fill in the blanks with repetitious enforcement and soon enough I became Californian, apparently. Internet of course filled in more later on and now I am reverse dyslexic where I write some insane shit even I go "the f?" at after the fact.

TL;DR: Anything, really. Just "bathe" and use something to look up words if you feel like it. "Bathing" is really a great way to learn a language and Video games is a unique thing that can fill you with both written and spoken words.
 
Qualquer coisa; se você for jovem o suficiente. Aprendi inglês basicamente quando comecei a jogar videogame, mas especificamente PS1 quando criança. Alguém apontou algumas palavras e eu comecei a preencher as lacunas com reforço repetitivo e logo me tornei californiano, aparentemente. A internet, claro, me ajudou mais depois, e agora sou disléxico reverso, escrevo umas merdas insanas, mesmo quando digo "pqp?" depois.

TL;DR: Qualquer coisa, na verdade. Basta "banhar-se" e usar algo para procurar palavras, se quiser. "Banho" é realmente uma ótima maneira de aprender um idioma, e videogames são uma coisa única que pode te encher de palavras escritas e faladas.
EUI'm 17 years old but I can already read. The problem is that I don't know if I'm good. I'm from Brazil. Do you think that a person my age can learn or do you think that learning has an age limit?

I learned rudimentary Japanese (Text) Just by playing a Japanese PS3 game I happen to own. You likely can still get stuff. It is just important to read and write loads of english, even though children have a sponge mode for language.

Anyone can learn a new language, but it generally gets harder the older you are.
17 years old is probably no problem as long as you actively practice!
 
Qualquer um pode aprender um novo idioma, mas geralmente fica mais difícil à medida que você envelhece.
17 anos provavelmente não é problema, desde que você pratique ativamente!
EUI was playing a Zelda game to learn English and I can now read the texts without stuttering, this is progress.
 
I assume GBA can also run GameBoy Color games so my recommendation would be Soul Void. Its a modern homebrew game with amazing art and pretty deep story that can teach you new words and how to use them in serious way, I guess. I learned English on PS1 games personally so its hard to recommend games from other systems.
 
Presumo que o GBA também rode jogos do GameBoy Color, então minha recomendação seria Soul Void. É um jogo homebrew moderno com arte incrível e uma história bem profunda que pode te ensinar novas palavras e como usá-las de forma prática, eu acho. Eu aprendi inglês com jogos de PS1, então é difícil recomendar jogos de outros consoles.
MasBut thanks anyway, I use the emulator because I'm a poor guy who doesn't have money to buy the retro video game that is very expensive that people stab and Big n console I can already read In English without stuttering this is good
 
By my experience, the age isn't exactly the limit as many people have told me. Our limit resides in our brain and the number of words we know. The brain has a limit, the size limit and speed of learning is based on our IQ and the retainability is based on training the brain. Think it as a FIFO queue, you reach your limit, then learn a new word and another word goes out.

I will never believe knowledge does not take up space in our brains like I've been told many times :(
 
Pela minha experiência, a idade não é exatamente o limite, como muitas pessoas me disseram. Nosso limite reside no nosso cérebro e no número de palavras que conhecemos. O cérebro tem um limite: o limite de tamanho e a velocidade de aprendizado se baseiam no nosso QI, e a capacidade de memorização se baseia no treinamento do cérebro. Pense nisso como uma fila FIFO: você atinge seu limite, aprende uma nova palavra e outra palavra é eliminada.

Nunca acreditarei que o conhecimento não ocupa espaço em nossos cérebros, como já me disseram muitas vezes :(
EUI have a philosophy if I have an age in a game because playing the game without not understanding try to read the words to see if you can that's how I can read the texts of the games without stuttering That I can read the same as I can't write like the person who is learning, I learned a simple way that my teacher gave me activities for me to read in English so I could answer

DesculpeI apologize for the inconvenience, I like to learn new cultures, learn about us in our ways, I am a person who loves to learn new things, and a shout out to Brazil, which is me.

I agree with more or less everything the others have said. There's no real age limit, it depends on your curiosity and desire to learn.
I was already good at English in school, but thanks to the good old games in the '80s, when I was a kid, I improved significantly, also learning new terminology that wasn't covered in school.
In the '90s, when I was in my early 20s, thanks to a Japanese friend of mine and the PS1, I learned some Japanese (here in Italy, PAL games always came out too late, so I used to import the JP and US ones).
As I said, there's never a real limit, it all depends on us. So, as someone said, any game would be fine for the purpose: the only advice is that maybe you could start with games with little text, and then gradually increase until you get to titles with a lot of text, like RPGs.

So, you are Brasileiro... De onde cé vein? ;->
 
Concordo com mais ou menos tudo o que os outros disseram. Não há limite de idade, depende da sua curiosidade e vontade de aprender.
Eu já era bom em inglês na escola, mas graças aos bons e velhos jogos dos anos 80, quando eu era criança, melhorei significativamente, aprendendo também novas terminologias que não eram ensinadas na escola.
Nos anos 90, quando eu tinha pouco mais de 20 anos, graças a um amigo japonês e ao PS1, aprendi um pouco de japonês (aqui na Itália, os jogos PAL sempre saíam tarde demais, então eu costumava importar os japoneses e os americanos).
Como eu disse, nunca há um limite real, tudo depende de nós. Então, como alguém disse, qualquer jogo serviria para esse propósito: o único conselho é que talvez você possa começar com jogos com pouco texto e, então, aumentar gradualmente até chegar a títulos com muito texto, como RPGs.

Então você é Brasileiro... De onde cé veia? ;->
NóIn the hottest place in the world in the hottest region of Brazil but seriously can you give me some recommendations of games for me to learn that are in your time so I can learn
 
Pokémon and Zelda taught me a lot of English when I was a kid. Try them!
I second this. Lots of text, not too complicated.
 
I would say it's best to also get into PS1 emulation for the voice acting, while rare it also helps. If GBA titles ate the only way however I would say take a look at the Repo's RPG selection Breath of Fire comes to mind. RPGs with long stories will definitely boost up the vocabulary.
 
First off, I'm excited for you! It will be a rewarding journey. Just don't get discouraged when progress feels slow! Your unconscious mind is still making connections and refining systems that haven't risen to your conscious mind yet. This sneaks up on you and pays off even if you don't notice immediately. As long as you consume a good amount of English everyday and make sure to sleep well, you'll be progressing at a good rate.

I know you said GBA, so I would recommend the Final Fantasy ports. They are text dense and solid translations. Really, any rpg would be good.

YouTube is very useful too. Watch some gaming videos or whatever other interests you have in English. There are also just educational listening drills that will get your ears more used to the phonetics and other aspects of listening and speaking.
 
@Lod uchiha - Como os outros recomendam, eu também sugiro que você experimente Pokémon, Zelda, Breath of Fire e Final Fantasy, todos disponíveis para GBA e PS1.
Além disso, como eu disse, você pode começar com pouco texto e depois aumentar gradualmente até chegar aos jogos com muito, muito texto. :->
