IT'S TOO FSCKING BIG!!!! :|

 

[mwmorph]

wow that screen is unusably small.

 

[Cattlegod]

haha, that is crazy. if it is like 20 bucks and games about 5, then it looks like a sweet deal.

 

[cjgallen]

That's stupid small.

 

[Zim Hosein]

It's an NES controller w/ a screen?

 

[NFS4]

Reminds me of that SNL sketch where Will Ferrel has that cell phone that is barely bigger than his thumb

I have both of those "Jeffrey's" skits! Haha, classic. One with Pierce Brosnan, and the other one with "Jack" from Will and Grace.

That was the first thing I thought of. I'm sure an NES controller face plate would be a hot seller for it..

 

[KarenMarie]

these old eyes would never be able to play that game.

oh the blindness!

 

[ChaoZ]

Another one...

 

[Kevin1211]

wtf.... u will need a magnifying glass just to play... smaller = better, but not when it comes to screen size.. really bad move by nintendo

 

[RadioHead84]

wow...i don tknow if that will sell very well..thats a bit too tiny

 

[Chronoshock]

Bear in the mind the target audience is probably small kids
You ever see a kid holding one of the first generations gameboy advances? They look pretty clunky. This gameboy would actually be pretty proportional

Anyone have a pic of Will and phone?

 

[walla]

well they are on their way to shrinking their consoles completely out of existence.

From rough proportional measurements, the screen is about ~1.75" wide by ~1.2" tall.

 

[Blayze]

thats way to small

 

[BaboonGuy]

Nintendo is in cahoots with the optometrists of the world to ruin all little kids' eyes.

Wow, I just measured the screen on my cell phone.. it is slightly bigger, and playing games on it sucks. Granted the GB looks like it has a much better screen and definitly would have more power, it's still a tiny screen.

And here I was hoping the new GB would compete with the PSP.
