I've had and played the GBA and didn't like it that much. I have also noticed that in the Games shop that I go to there is alot of GBA games for sale.
I feel that the GBA was hyped too much and that Nintendo should of really concentrated on the Console rather than the advertising.
They have denied claims that they will bring out a back lit GBA and if you open up the casing on your GBA then you lose your warrenty and the lights you can buy are rubbish.
I feel that if Nintendo had but back lighting in the console then it would have been a better success.
Many games and game boys are changing hands at the moment and for very little money.
Is this the same in your area and what do you think about the game boy advance?

My GBA is hardly ever used, it's a good little machine, but the screen is far too shiny. Not really into the whole portable gaming scene anymore really, I would recommend it, but the price of games just extracts the urine.

My GBA rules.

Mario Kart rules.

If it was back-lit, wouldn't it be bad for your eyesight?

You can't beat a GBA DOOM looks exactly like the PC one (DOOM95)
Street Fighter is more like the arcade version

WWF RTW the music sounds dead good especially on the rocks it sounds exactly like it.


The only problem i find is that the screen is too dark especially on GBC games on GBA

I got my GBA last week and I think it's GREAT!

I've had no need to buy on of those light things as i'm not blind and have found it easy enough to see the screen!

I'm just soo glad I bought it!

The only problem is that I really can't afford many games for it at the moment. So i'm just playing Mario Kart and Tetris DX on it! :(

Oh well, I still love it to bits!
