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.

1) You can't have spaces in web addys, unless you work DO for 'ripped-off.com'

2) Get a life. And learn the real names for consoles.

Top Score,

Perhaps you could put your anti-Nintendo arguements in a seperate post. That way, we'll all have something concrete to comment on without hijacking this thread. So far, you have made the (incorrect) allegation that the Nintendo Gameboy Advance uses old screens from the Sega GameGear, and substituted the names of some Nintendo consoles with "humourous" alternatives.

State your concerns in writing, or FO

I am disappointed in what the GBA can do. All of the games I have seen look like cartoon games. There is little or no attempt at glossy more life like images. Saw a motorbike racer the other day, and that looked like a cartoon picture as well. Why? The technology must be there now to allow portable consoles to do better graphics than this. And why the obsession with the old side scrolling games. Seen it, done it. Why bring it all back - ok let a couple of "classics" through, but not this many. The only reason why GBA is so popular is because there is no serious alternative. Game cart prices are a bit high as well, considering what you get. Doesn’t matter if it's got Online or GC hook up, or both, if looks like this, I wont be tempted.

Top Score thrives off peoples hatred seemingly.

Oh. Unadvanced.

Well, let me see. Its a more advanced version of the GB. So. Are you saying that it is actualy the same level as the original GB?

You really are an idiot.
