The hype about the GBA has been amazing. People all over the world have been ranting and raving about the newest addition to the Gameboy collection. But if you think about it, it is only a minature SNES. I don't mean to put it down, I am a Nintendo fan myself, but in all seriousness, there are no real games that seem quite ground breaking.
The system is a 32-Vit machine, so there is no reason to see why it shouldn't play all these games. Nintendo, to impress people, need to come up with a much better games than another Mario and another Zelda. I know these games are good, and 'you can't get enough of a good thing'; but if Nintendo keep coming out with Pokemon game after pokemon game and Mario game after Mario game then the quality will drop and so with the number of fans.
In my view, Nintendo need to really hit in the innovation-o-meter with some good titles. Classics are all well and good but they wont be able to support the console alone.

I am thinking about getting one, but if a Zelda game comes out for it then I will defiantly get one. Has a Zelda game for it been confirmed? If so will it be a launch title? I have also seen some nice 3D games running on it including a flight game, which looks very promising. I have a question; will you be able to save your games on it? I did have a game boy but it was a long time ago and I cannot remember if you can save.
