Is there any truth in the rumour that the Gameboy Unadvanced uses Sega Gamegear screens which sega flogged off cheap to Nintendo, then again I am not sure if the Sega Gamegear screens are better.

Also who in there right mind wants to play SNES style games from the GBA on there Gamecube as if.

Hah! What a pile of, well, god knows what it is. Anyway, no, they use either Sharp or Panasonc screens, and I know that for a fact, as I modded my GBA, and had to lift the screen up to do so, seeing that it was made by Sharp.


Second thing is, i'm going to play GBA games on my GC, as there are some quality multiplayer titles, that would plaay much better on a big screen, such as Advance wars etc.

Obviously the Lamecube has a shortage of quality titles and you have to resort to playing GBA games on the it. Mind I bet the graphics are even better when blown up that big.

Coming from someone who would have us believe that the PS2s backwards compatibility makes it even better, this only causes you to sound like an ignorant hypocrite.

The majority of times I've noticed Top Score's posts they seem to contain some anti nintendo sentiment, which only leads me to the suspicion that he/she is a repressed nintendo lover that has had some nintendo related trauma in the past to turn them against said company. :)
