Post by: Blade on April 21, 2002, 05:35:30 AM: If you like 2D gaming or portable gaming at all.. buy it.

While this home console generation will see few 2D games, GBA will have plenty of that old-school action.

Try this (http://www.portablemonopoly.com) out if you want to see the screen better. Some games can be dark, like Castlevania.

its nice to have the GBA around when u have nothing else to do (like today during my STAT class in the univ.)
