The GBA is one powerful handheld that can play 32 bit, PSX like graphics on one small screen! All the people who dimiss this as another rip off from Nintendo think again.
The GBA is one slinky looking futuristic handheld, it will set a future of not only the smallest porcessors to be used in full effect on something that small. It's at least 16 times more poweful than the GBC.
Look at it as a PSX except smaller sized and with Nintendo games, and you'll find a cheaper smaller sized console to buy instead of going for the bigger, bulkier consoles that may have the big processors to produce 4D graphics.
We don't have too long to wait for such brilliant designed handhelds that Nintendo can only make perfect.
Only problem what does this do the GB colour doesn't well besides having 32,000 colours on screen, it has backwards compatibility which means you can play all your old GB and GBC games on the GBA. It will retail at around £50 i hope, no plugs, TV's or monitors to link this machine into you get 15 hours of gameplay from at least 2 AA battery's.
The GBA will come packed with superb games, remember F Zero X? Here's is the GBA incarnation of it, and then you get Mario Advance to keep us amused for a long time since the GameCube will be released around Christmas time. You can look forward no more for the best when MArio Kart Advance comes out. Not only that the GBA enables 4 player link up with players so expect 4 player F-Zero races and 4 player Pokemon battles with each other. Stereo sound is out at last, the annoying old GBC sound is gone and long live Dolby surround sound! Fed up with linking up cables, so go play online with it's internet capabilities. Not only will it play games it is a likely decision that the GBA will link up with the GameCube in some way so you'd better get one reserved and ready!

Exactly so it is all worth it!
Evidently it does, not least because of marketing...
