Gameboy Advance NE Good???

[SleepyGuy]

They are going for $140 Canadian... i gave it a demo at futureshop and the screen seemed a bit dim... ran mario 2 (the best mario) great though. Just wondering if anyone has purchased it, and if they like it. I might get one for my nephew's birthday, he's turning 9. peace out.

<<geez, i must have been typing 2 fast!!!>>

Anyway, to update, i purchased it at futureshop this morning... there was only like 3 left, got my nephew f-zero with it.

GB Advance just came into Toys R Us in the US for $99. The Advance is very impressive and has a larger screen but I really want a back-lit screen. Any kid would love it though since their eyes are still good.
The new Castlevania is a must get for fans of the series. BTW IMO the best Mario was Super Mario 3. I hope they release a new Mario All Stars.

I havent played it myself but everyone I know of that has played it all seem to like it.

 

[ugh]

But there are only like 1-2 games out. I'm talking about GB Advanced games, not the ported old games... So I guess we'll have to wait.

<< That's a few more than 2. >>



Heh... Ok 😉 But are those made specifically for GBA or just some port of old games? 16 or 32 bit?

Yea, non-backlighting really blows for a portable device, especially after being used to all the PDAs and such I've worked with.
