Two things:

1) This sucks, I wish they'd quit doing that to me. I have no less than 3 different Gameboy's floating around here cuz I always have to have the newest one

2) Where in the hell are the other two buttons? Everyone knows you can't really play SF2 that well with 2 punch and 2 kick buttons. You need six buttons!

Sign me up! I heard they were going to release a gameboy with online cababilities (via cellular signals) in the near future though. It might be a good idea to wait a bit and see what develops, at least until xmas time this year! I would get one of these if they were closer to the $50 mark though. Maybe there will be an opening day sale at BB for $70 plus the $5 off coupon! *sigh*

Thank you for continuing to subsidize GameCube development. 😉

Take a closer look at the pictures. There are still right and left shoulder buttons at the corners of the lower half of the unit.
 
Will they be coming with a new game format other than the Advance? Maybe something more powerful, better graphics? Or is this just a shell upgrade?

Cheers,
Aquaman

There is no excuse for any repackaging of the GBA if it doesn't include Bluetooth or one of its competing technologies.

There is actually an add on (plugs in the cartrige hole) that lets you play MP3s and WMA on your GBA while it displays the cd-cover or other pics. Search on google for it, I am too lazy 🙁

Yeah I heard of that but I was thinking they should build it in 😀

Aquaman <<<<<<<<<, wishful thinking 😀
 
Well crud. I just went out and bought a new GBA and Afterburner. I really like it, but I love the fact that the new one is smaller and has rechargable batteries.
 
Its blocked for my work.

does anyone know if it is upgraded graphics or is it just a repackaged GB Advanced?

I was going to buy myself a GBA for christmas too! good thing I didn't
