well, i dont have an an afterburner kit, and i dont have a worm light... but planes have those little light things above your head... u think that'd be enough to see?

yeah its plenty fine. you may have to move it around or adjust it so that the light doesn't reflect straight into your face.

But otherwise it works perfectly :)

have a nice trip :)

The wormlight is a POS. All it does is make one little spot in the middle of the screen extremely bright. I saw a diagram or something somewhere that airplane lighting is almost perfect lighting for the GBA alone. :) As for the Afterburner, you won't need one of those unless your in a cave. I think the whole reason behind the Afterburner is just a statement made by consumers toward Nintendo that backlighting does matter to some people.

LOL read today's Penny Arcade news post.

"Well, I learned that the finest GameBoy Advance lighting solution is, in fact, a passenger airliner. I'm serious. There's something about those overhead lights, warm and diffuse, that rubs the GBA just right. "

:)
