That's cos they are the bigger markets.

Nintendo care about the UK! That's why the THE deal has gone and Nintendo are setting up office in the UK (wahoo Nintendo of GB!)

Hmmmmmm... but games will never really be anywhere near PSX level, due to the small screen (in comparison to a TV). Mind u, should be good on trips... how does the 4 player thing work? Is it iinfra red. In my opinion they should release a radio transmitter like with the Neo Geo PC in Japan, that allowed u to play with 70 (YES 70) other people in the near vesinity at once!

Gameboy Advance does look pretty Tastey, And the new Mario looks a bit like "Mario2" from the NES (My favourite Mario). So I can hardly wait, its just annoying that the Japs and Americans will get theirs first,
still I dont think theres any region lockout on the GBA so maybe you could just get a japanese GBA and not wait!
