Hi everyone, Im back!

Last month was a drag, best friend tried to commit suicide twice. My mum had a nevous breakdown. I got Scabies (Little mites that live on your skin...Lovely :-( ). Plus I had a shed load of exams.

However thats all in the past now, the scabies have gone, and my mum and my best friend are on the way to complete recovery. My exams didnt go well but hey under those circumstances they could have been alot worse.

Now Im back in the lab working with radioactive DNA, what fun :-(. But its only two weeks. Plus I just renewed my Special Reserve Membership (well the cheque will be in the post this afternoon!) so I should be getting some rumble packs for my N64 soon :-).



Anyway thats what Ive been doing, can anyone tell me whats been going on here over the last month.


Oh does anyone know what happened to that videogame magazine/publication "VideoGamer" it only cost 99p and was pretty good, but it seemed to disapear off the face of the earth (or at least every newsagent I usually go to) last month???

Also Im pretty excited about the Gameboy Advance as Ive played a Jap version briefly . Its cool,anyway since then
Ive been wondering is it multiregion (i.e. can you play US games on a UK Gameboy advance???

With regards to the above question, will ther be an adapter to allow it to be plugged into the mains..and could a UK GameBoyAdvance be plugged into an American power supply and vice versa???

Also can it play both gameboy and gameboy colour games??



My birthdays on the 28th so hopefully Ill be able to afford one, anyway take care everyone.

New Jimmy.

Thanks pb :-)

I think Ill definately have to get a GameBoyAdvance,seeing as I can always pick up some cheap Gameboy games while Im waiting for it to arrive!

Do you think the Glacier or Indigo GameboyAdvance is better???

The Indigo would go with the GameCube quite well, but the Glacier looks cool??

As for the Pick GameboyAdvance, not my style.

Ok, GBA questions:

Ive been wondering is it multiregion (i.e. can you play
US games on a UK Gameboy advance???

- Yes, and Jap too.

With regards to the above question, will ther be an
adapter to allow it to be plugged into the mains..and
could a UK GameBoyAdvance be plugged into an American
power supply and vice versa???

- There will be a battery pack and adaptor together, and you'd have to buy a plug adaptor if you wanted the US one to run here, use batteries and wait for a UK adaptor instead.

Also can it play both gameboy and gameboy colour games??

- Yep, you can play them normal size or in a type of 'widescreen' format that lets you see them clearer. Oh, and you may need a Lightboy 2 or Wormlight 2 as well (the GB color wormlights use too much power to work properly with the GBA)
