Hmmmm, interesting indeed.  Might want to hold off on GBA for a month or two.  (Wasn\'t going to buy one anyways, so it\'s not hard to wait longer. ;))

What can I say? I want to get my character up to level 99 and every item. I already have all the cards and up to level 51. Another 20 hours and I\'ll be finished.. Well, until I go through the other modes.

I haven´t still played with a GBA, so I´ve a question: If you, for example, play with it in a dark, very dark (black) room, without any light, can you see the screen?

Yeah Nintendo should alter it now before the GBA really takes off.

If they do alter it, its a bit bad on all the people who have purchased a GBA already.

You said it. I\'d be ticked off,.. that\'s for sure. I just hope that if they do implement the new LCD screen, that it does improve the lighting/glare conditions.

I am not exactly happy about this. They should offer some sort of deal for those of us who have owned a GBA since day one. My eyesight has been forever damaged thanks to CastleVania. Do you have any clue what it is like to be so accustomed to a dark screen , that when you see the light outside is burns your eyes? I didn\'t either, until after intense playing of CastleVania. I can thank Nintendo for this curse. So, I think I\'m at  least due alittle deal here, if they fix some of the lighting issues.

Crazy! We had this exact discussion on this board or Blast City around half a year ago, at LEAST, regarding about changing the GB screen to be backlit or lighter.

deja vu!

It doesn\'t piss me off too much, as I usually buy two systems anyways, 1 for playing, and 1 for displaying/playing after first one brakes.

If they adjusted the brightness now, wouldn\'t the coloring of already released games be somewhat affected?

We don\'t discuss emulation and Roms here.
:)
So, go buy a GBA...
