I'll be getting Mario Kart for sure, but I've not bothered with Tony Hawk's 2 as Skateboarding just isn't my thing, but I must say it looks pretty darn impressive.

I have clear red, my brother has clear blue (sounds dodgy), I mean Glacier yes, but I wouldn't have minded some more colours to choose from - Clear Green. Orange and Black would've helped.

I do indeed. I have Super Mario, Ready 2 Rumble and a pair of batteries, and of course all my old GB games - tetris still plays wonderfully ;)

Just got mine this afternoon at Currys. Got good deal (Purple GBA, GT Advance and Tony Hawk's 2 and Light Magnifer for £149.96).

I am more than pleased with mine. I never new how much fun could be had with a handheld console before.

I bought the original gameboy back in 1998 but sold it to my sister 3 weeks later as I didn't like it due to it being a black & white screen.

I did contemplate buying the GBC but heard about the GBA just in time and boy was it worth the wait.

My games are great, especially GT Advance. The graphics are next to none and it is very much like GT on PSOne As when you select your car it has all the well known manufactures like Mitsubishi, Toyota, Nissan, Subaru, Daihatsu, Suzuki, Honda and Mazda.

The cars look great and the sound is great too.

It gets even better as you can use the link cable on this and play against a mate (still to try this function out).

Also Tony Hawks 2 is excellent too. The graphics are the best I have ever seen on a handheld before. I had it for the PSOne and the thought of being able to play it on the move won me over. And guess what it is, in my opininon, a nuch more exilirating experinece to play than on the PSOne.

So if you haven't got one yet or are toying with the idea of buying one, withdraw the cash from your bank account and hand it over to your local retailer and run home to experience the best games ever to grace a handheld console.

I was anxiously expecting my GBA today fromt a mail order firm that i had previously not heard of, but was selling it cheap. They guaranteed delivery on the release date(i.e. today), but when I phoned them up today they told me that I should expect one next week Wednesday as they have had a shortage. Naturally, I was disappointed, although I can console myself with the fact that I will be getting Tony Hawks, GT Advance and F Zero with it. I should also be getting chuchi Rocket as well, although I'm not sure if the release date has been pushed back.

Got my White GBA this morning with Mario Advance and F Zero!! Earlier in the week I got Tony Hawks 2, Castlevania and Rayman Advance and Im just waiting for Konami Krazy Racers now!!
I am more than impressed with the machine, its much better than I imagined it to be!! Cant wait for releases such as Mario Kart, Doom, Street Fighter II Turbo and Sonic Advance!!
In the mean time I may pick up GT Advance - It is suppose to be awesome and Im well into racing gaes at the moment - Playing it on a handheld should be great!!
