I got my GBA about a month ago, and it's wicked! I can't wait for MarioKart Advance to come along.
The only criticism i have is that the digital pad is slightly too small for my hands. But thats a minor niggle.
If you can afford one, go and buy one. NOW!

My gameboy advance came this morning at 8 by courier (it woke me up). I was happy bacause I thought it would come by normal post (which comes in the late afternoon).
The Game Boy Advance is a fantastic little machine!!
Nintendo have got it just right with the new handheld because it's going to old and new gamers alike.
Firstly, it looks funky, is well designed and comfortable to hold and it has the potential for some really cracking games!
Secondly, for the likes of me (a twenty-something), it feels like a hand held Super Nintendo!
With some ported SNES games (Super Mario Advance 2, Super Mario Kart etc) being planned for the near future, the GBA is going to become a "must have" console.
Techy-stuff aside (we all know the specs anyway), as with any console, it's the game play that's important - which is an area where the GBA excels (it's worth buying for Super Mario Advance alone!).
