Nintendo Game Boy Advance SP

Check Site at Amazon

from Shawn from Eagle Bend, MN, www.circuitcity.com
would've been nice though if they would've sent the free case to match it instead of sending a pink one for ablue gameboy especially being it was for a boy.
from Jonathan Metts, nintendoworldreport.com
if you've ever wished the game boy advance were easier to see, easier to hold, or easier to own, gba sp is the answer.
from www.amazon.com
is it the gameboy advance, the game boy advance sp, the nintendo ds, the nintendo ds lite edition, or the playstation portable?
from www.amazon.com
nintendo ds i would highly recomend this one over the nintendo ds because the ds is cool but the screen is split and it can not play any games that the gameboys play so your best to get the gba sp
from www.amazon.com
the gba is all what the product description claims to be...

my daughter love this gameboy console, the games are nice, the console is very good she has 3 years of having it and she has drop it a lot of times and it works just perfect.
from www.amazon.com
it's backwards compatible so it plays gba game.
from www.amazon.com
my only complaint is the gba (game boy advance) part of it.
from www.amazon.com
the ds is a great size, has a storing spot for the stylus , and you can have a ds game and a gb or gba cartridge in it at the same time.
from www.amazon.com
it will play your old game boy advance games bt only in single player mode - it will not connect in any way to any other gameboy 9 but it is supposed to connect to the wii).

what's great about it:?ability to play gameboy advance games "i got this product for christmas and it's just about the best hand held i've ever used.
from www.circuitcity.com
the gba slot now comes with a cover for when there isno game in that slot( to keep dust out ), and it also makes it look much sleeker.
from BrandM from West Hempstead, NY, www.circuitcity.com
at first i did not like the slot where the gameboy games are held, because it only allows the gameboy game to go in half of the way, while the rest is of game is sticking out.
from www.bestbuy.com
the fact that it can also play old gba (game boy advance) games literally makes this have one of the best, and largest game library's of any system.
from www.walmart.com
even though the ds has graphics not up to psr with the psp, it has a much larger game library, being able to play both ds and gameboy advance games.

it is for a gba game if you want one in there.

though the lineup of ds games (along with every single game boy advance game, since the ds has a gba slot at the bottom) is amazing as it is, the good games keep coming.

the only downside is that it isn't compatible with the old gba (game boy advance) games mulitplayer features.

Nintendo DSi Matte Blue Console

from www.amazon.com
it's rumored that they will offer clasic game boy and gba games on it in the future, which would be a nice follow-up to the wii's virtual console.
from www.amazon.com
the only downer about this product is that you can't play gba games on the system, but my grandson is to busy with the nintendo games and the camera.
from www.amazon.com
the lack of a game boy advance slot is kinda bad if you have a lot of gba games, but personally whenever i want to play those games i use my older systems.
from www.amazon.com
second, it is evident that the gameboy advance slot is entirely gone and i can no longer play my old gba games.
from www.amazon.com
it was interesting at first trying to set this up it's defently not like the old gbc or gba.

from teehee, www.newegg.com
other thoughts: i buy this dsi for this one particular game that suck me into gameboy since red and blue (the good old day).
from FoxBoss, www.newegg.com
so it doesn't really bother me.also, one can wish that the missing gba slot is a little disappointing.
from sumthin gud, www.newegg.com
there's something about holding a nintendo in your hand that send you back to the 90's, the simpler times of gameboy color and one screen.
from Jake, www.newegg.com
cons: the removal of the gba slot.
from Bill G., www.newegg.com
cons: the biggest disapointment is no wpa 1 or 2 support, only wep.no gba slot, which is ok since i still have a semi broken ds lite (still playes games, but a pin in the ds slot popped and there is

from products.howstuffworks.com
it's well worth the additional cost over the traditional gba.
from www.amazon.com
i found that all of my old original gameboy games worked on it.
from www.amazon.com
originally my daughter had the older version of the gameboy advance which the screen was dark and hard to see and you had to buy all the gadgets to go with it in order to see the screen.
from www.amazon.com
the gba sp has to be the best in the line of nintendo game boys!
from www.amazon.com
the only thing i suggest is that it works with gameboy color games but the graphics don't match up to the advance games so know that before you purchase games.

on the fly.(some of them are way cheap now and there are over 700 gba games to choose from) if you have some leftover xmas money or disposable income, pick this little fella up, he won't disappoint!

it plays only gameboy advance games, cause it's supposed to.
from jgariso, reviews.cnet.com
i never had a gameboy sp- i've been wanting a psp for a while, but the hardware and games are just too pricey for me, and to be honest, it seems like a big, expensive toy to carry around (not exactly
from www.circuitcity.com
its small so you can take it anywhere, and you are able to use all the gameboy advance games so it has a huge library of games at your disposal.
from www.circuitcity.com
the micro is light and it's very portable but if you don't like gba games then don't buy it.

but overall it is the best handheld gaming system, much better than ipod video gameboy and dvd player.

this is more of an adult product than a kids backseat gaming device like my old gameboy, with the playstation/pc graphics and nice smooth gameplay this is excellent for low price you have to pay, its

it is super duper it is better then the nintendo ds and the gameboy sp and the playstation2 and xbox and gamecube.

the wii is also backward compatible with any gamecube games and most of the peripherals, but not the gameboy player :(.
from www.amazon.com
nintendo struggled in the late 90's, but has slowly came back with the gc, gba, ds, and now the wii.
from www.amazon.com
(hdmi may not give you better pictures, depends on what tv monitor and what dvd player you use!) the resolution in wii games (zelda as an example) is only up to gameboy screens.
from www.amazon.com
not to mention the gameboy advance interface (especially for you pokemon fans) and the price.

the library of games is almost unbelievable, the only other system with this many titles is the gameboy, but i must say the variety of genres on this machine is unmatched by any system.
from www.amazon.com
just like they will with gba!
from www.amazon.com
tekken went to gba, gta went to gbac, gbasp, xbox, dreamcast, and pc, gran turismo went to gba, and one of the final fantasys went to gc, so they aren't very loyal to ps2.
from www.amazon.com
my last game experience was gameboy (not advanced).
