New characters? If you mean Luigi, Toad and Princess then try playing Super Mario Bros 2 on the NES and SNES. They were in it then!

i couldnt believe it i went in on wednesday and they sed the delivery had been delayed so i could pick it up 2mora mornin!!!!!!!! so i spent all day twiddlin my thumbs and tonight ill just watch a crap film till i go to sleep then bingo! only 1 day before but still 1 day is better than fiday. thanks for the help and keep the suggestions comin so far i think ill go for an accessory or a last min dicision on a game.

GBA on Wednesday- today!! man you are lucky. You are getting it very cheap. We all have to wait two day plus get all the moeny together.

You want advice on a release game to get? Well F Zero X is supposed to be one of the best release games. If you are into orignallity go for Kuru Kuru Kurin- a stick that spins 'how stupid'. Well no, looks rather good and addictive.

If you are into racing, check out F Zero or Advance GTA. They both look fast and have great graphics.

That may view.

By the way- have you actually got your GBA yet??

Not too sure about that, I played F-Zero and it looked more like sprites to me.

Yes it can display polygons as the ships in F-Zero are polygons and the characters in Tony Hawks are made out of polygons. I've also seen the Yoshi Demo for GBA and that is made out of polygons.

Well I'll know not to write in here again, you guys don't argue with points I've raised or support your want for the GBA! My comments must have been 100% correct and you're feeling guilty for wanting a GBA!

thats a reason why i dont want to get one. Most of the games are very similar to snes games and i can pick them up 2nd hand for less than a fiver a go. i've got all stars on the snes and yeah its class. Maybe playing it on the move could be fun. I suppose unitl i have actually held the GBA in my hand i will not be tempted to buy one. £30 for a game is far too expensive though.

The game boy advanced looks pretty sweet even though the speaker is a fair bad place where your palm is gona completly cover it but still it's good.

Although i have more than enough money for the GBA, I'm not too keen on paying £30 for a snes/PS1 type game.Maybe when some good titles are around like res evil gaiden.

I'd get super mario all stars if it's on it because it's pure class.
