About a day or so after buying the GBA on the release date i e-mailed nintendo in America (although i am living in the uk) saying why don't they add some kind of music system (e.g mini disc, cd-player, etc..) as a plug-in cart for the GBA.

A couple of days later they e-mailed me back saying that if i had any comments i should e-mail the nintendo place in Britain. As i am some-what scepticale of e-mailing companys because you would probably get some auto reply saying some-thing like "you comment has been acknolaged and taken in to account", which lets face it is a big bunch of lies, but anyway, i came on line the other day and looked around at computer game stuff and lowe-and-behold i find nintendo have just brought out a radio adapter, now if thats not stealing my idea i don't know what is.

Ages ago, although it was basically a seperate radio, that had its own headphones, and just drew power from the GB.

actually the radio was thought of several days befroe you mentioned it, and besides its crap, think about it, the GBA is effectively a computer, and computers intifere with radio transmissions thus it is crap! i used to have one for the GBC, and you couldnt here much for the interferance, just don't buy one!

probably could have got a radio for the same price.
but some people want to look flash
but not as flash as the game gear tv tuner even if you couldn't tune it in all of the time in lower signal strength areas
