The GBA is set to come out in the Euro.
But only 1 million will be brought in the first 2 weeks!

And do you know why? Free oublicity. Thats what. They WANT people queing outside stores, they want it to make big news for publicity, while we are being deprived of our gaming needs! Post more messages as a petition!

Well i aint buying one anyway. Its too expensive for me. Its gonna be well over £100 just for a portable Snes experience? I dont really play games on the move and this aint gonna change my mind.

i mihgt get one when i get my Cube becasue of the link up capabilities though.

I wouldn't worry. Eventually more GBAs will be released and (I think)it will be well worth the wait for those who don't get it this time round. Portable gameplay will never be the same again, a new age has dawned and I intent to be amongst the first to own a part of the future!

1 million doesn't sound that much. But 1 million for sales of any game or console in the first two weeks is pretty high they will probably bring out a lot more over the next few weeks.

I got one last week and it ROX! if you are thinking of getting Advance GTA championship Racing for it then i reccomend that you get the Jap version. The reason that I say this is because on the US version (and im sure that the UK version will be the same) you have to put a big old nasty password in to the game to start from where you last left off (instead of a simple save option) whereas in the jap version it simply saves your progress :-) Oh yeah and the game itself is excellent! and 100% english.

The GBA only sold 400,000 units in it's first 4 days in Japan....

I seriously doubt it'll be sold out in Europe on it's release....

I hardly ever play my Game Boy Color on the move! But I play it a hell of a lot more than I do PC and N64!
