GBA Equipment Comparison Charts

1. Item cost
2. Defense bonus
3. Alphabetical order

Legend:

• "Shop": This item can be bought repeatedly in at least one shop in the listed games.
• "Artifact": This item appears at least once as an Artifact in the listed games' shops' Artifact menus.
• "Tolbi Springs"/"Lemuria Springs": This item can be won as a prize from the Lucky Medal Fountains in the listed games, and therefore can be acquired repeatedly.
• "Lucky Wheels": This item can be won as a prize from the Lucky Wheels minigame in the listed games, and therefore can be acquired repeatedly.
• "Chest": This item can generally be found within one of the chests of the listed game and is one-of-a-kind, but can also be received from inspecting the world map itself (such as the Turtle Boots).
• "Forge": This item can be acquired randomly whenever appropriate forgeable material is brought to Sunshine the Blacksmith in Yallam in Golden Sun: The Lost Age, and therefore can be acquired repeatedly.
• "Event": This item is received in a scripted event that triggers in the game itself.
