Much better then the Game Boy Advance, and better then the DS I think, and theres still alot of good games out for it, so my advice is to get it. | 5 | Today | Gameboy survives the toilet
This may be an unusual review, but I had to share....
A few weeks ago, my five-year-old son decided it would be fun to "swish" his gameboy around in our toilet. When I caught him doing this, there was water everywhere, which leads me to believe he had been doing it for a few minutes. When I took the gameboy out of the water, it was soaked and obviously not working. I thought for sure it was ruined. But, not wanting to throw away an $80 toy, I decided to try to save it. Using a can of compressed air, I blew out water from every opening I could find. I took out the game cartage and the battery and left it all out to dry. A few days later, I put it all back together and gave it a try. It worked! Not only was the gameboy itself working, but the game cartage was working too. I was amazed! My son is autistic and has an obsession with his gameboy, taking it everywhere he goes. He was devastated when it stopped working and could not understand why he was no longer able to play it.
I wanted to write this review to express my joy that this toy, which means so much to my son, could take quite a beating. Not only did it survive a swish through the toilet, it has held up to many falls to the floor. It is a wonderful product! The only game I can really comment on is Super Mario Brother Advanced since this is the only game my son wants to play on it. I enjoy it too when I'm allowed to play. :-) | 5 | Today | Beware!
The gameboy's graphics are really bad. Eat was very hard to see what I was doing in the light and was really bright at night.I recommend getting the psp or nintendo ds lite. One good thing about it though is that it can run on a fully-charged battery for a long time. | 3 | Today | Great, Awesome. Cool, Amazing, If I could, I'd rate this 10 out of 5!!
This is awsome!! I don't know how NINTENDO invented this!!
Just make sure that you don't scratch the screen. | 5 | Today | Very Good!
I've had this system for more than 2 years now and I haven't had any problems period. You can take this anywhere you go and you won't need batteries (a huge relief). There is a battery inside the Gameboy, so you can just load it up. While playing at night you'll need a light. Well, there's a light inside the screen that you can turn off or on (without will save you battery life). So far I own 7 games and I still have fun playing them.
The Gameboy Advance SP is mainly for kids, seeing that there are alot of kiddie games for the system and it's definitely not breakable (unlike the PSP). It's also easy to get used to.
Overall, this is a system for kids and it's definitely worth it. It's even cheap nowadays, so buy it and you won't regret it! | 5 | Today | A great handheld system with a huge library of games.
I first had the original gameboy advance and was reluctant to upgrade to the SP. Well, the light I had for it died, and I couldn't find a replacement. Thus me buying this little guy... I'm kicking myself for not buying it earlier. This is way more portable, has a built in light that rivals just about any you could buy for the standard gba, and it has a built in rechargible battery. How can you go wrong? And since it's backward compatible with all the previous gameboy systems, you can still enjoy the all the classic games you've collected over the years. | 5 | Today | The essential modern kid's toy
I love the backlit screen! This toy has more bang for the buck than almost any other I can think of. The internal battery and recharger is brilliant -- no more asking for new batteries (though I now have a nice collection of rechargable AAs!). Great titles, Nintendo's strong point.
Can I think of ANYTHING negative about a GBA? No, I cannot! I wish they'd had these when I was a kid!!! | 5 | Today | Not anough additions, but still "AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Don't get me wrong. This gameboy advance SP is pretty awesome. The only problem is that there are not anough additions to it to spend your $100 on. In additions it does have are light, rechargable batteries wich last a really long time, there is also the flip screen action wich does a fair job on protecting the screen. What would of made it better is a headphone jack, stereo speakers,and a LCD screen. If you are cool you would by this. If you are not you will stick to a ordinary GBA. | 4 | Today | A good deal
If you have a normal gameboy Advance don't spend your money. It's the same thing except they fixed all the mistakes (but they took ou the head phone jack). The new built in lighting system is the main reason I wanted to get it. You can play old and new games on it (you can't do that with the Nintendo DS). A verry good deal. I'd rather have this than any other new or old portable game system. | 5 | Today | The 100% Better Version of GBA
The SP is a small step for gamers but a giant leap for Nintendo. The convience, fun, and portability of the GBA just got better. The SP is smaller, easier on the hands, and has an illuminator behind the screen so you can actually see the game you're playing. Also the SP doesn't switch games so you can still get the GBA Games for it.
