"Anyone used a GBA SP yet?"

Just wondering - is the screen noticeably bigger? I know I could probably go and find the dimensions somewhere, but I'd prefer to know if when you pick it you do you really notice the extra (if there is any).

Can't decide to pick one up now or wait a month or two for the inevitable price drop.

Yes, I've played one.

The screen is exactly the same size.

Yup, I've had one for about a week, and no, the screen size is the same.

Hmmm you say the screen is the same size and all but wouldn't it look alot bigger, as the original post said 'is it noticably bigger?'

I think it should seem alot bigger even if it is the same size. Because, if you think about it, the flip up top has nothing but the screen on it meaning it covers the whole area making it look bigger then the original GBA's.

Or not?

The screen appears bigger.

However its not. But its so much nicer. I play my GBASP 2 hours a day, on the train to college and a little at night. It rules! :)

Decided I'm sold anyway. Know that when I walk past those store on the way through town tomorrow my credit card will just slip onto some counter. Nothing I can do about it. Gameboy number 7 here I come.

I have thought of buying a SP.
Can I please ask for a list of games worth purchasing.

Mine didnt arrive today, hopefully tomorrow.

Golden Sun and Advance Wars are the big two as far as I'm concerned. Know there's other good titles out there (e.g. Zelda), but you've probably played those already. Oh, Kuru Kuru Krurirnrsidfur is amazing too, and you should be able to pick it up cheep. Castlevania, that's good. Ahhh, there's loads of them. Buy 'em all. Sonic Advance, that's great. So far the sequel is great too.

Advance Wars
Sonic Advance
Sonic Advance 2
F-Zero
Mario Kart
MegaMan Zero
MegaMan & Bass

All good.
