DO NOT TOUCH THAT SCREW!!!

Turning the screw will break your GBA!

It controls the AC/DC which means it will either make more power from your socket run through your GBA, or less. Making more power run through it will burn your screen and you wont be able to play anything, lessening the power will make your screen darker and will make it impossible to change to it's original settings.

The best thing to do is get the 'Glow-Guard' which is supposed to be the best light for the GBA.

yeah, my girlfreind and her family would love that. I checked on the net, apparently it doesn't alter the contrast, it does something else that can screw up your GBA.

someone asked this...

i THINK the answer may have been under the GBA sticker? Or peel off the screen. Something stupid! Does it not say in the manual?

Of course, the range of games on the GBA will always be better. However, the NGPC does have many interesting coups. For example, while the GBA is 4 player by a link cable, NGPC has an adaptor that allows about 60 people to play on game at once... great for stratagy games.

And of course, NGPC has some great games. The beat 'em ups like SNK vs Capcom is unrivalled, and Metal Slug games always remain great.

Pity the Neo Geo room isn't still here! Will the sega room go the same way?
