wow, now that looks pretty cool. I wonder how much of a competition for the GBA it would be... competition would be a good thing in the handheld market.

Who made this thing and is there any support for it yet (from developers)?

oh and thanks for the info! ;)

Looks interesting but for $275 they can keep it.  That\'s almost the price of a PS2 or Xbox.  

There are some questions to be answered though.  Will it come to America?  Who is this company? Battery life?  Backlight?  As well as other specifics.  

The next gameboy will probably be similiar to that thing.

Just follow the link in my post. There is a list of games.It`s only in Korean but the English version is under construction. There are also movies of the games, but I could not play or download them for some reason.

To tell you the truth, that doesn\'t look much better than the GBA graphicswise or feature-wise. The three major differences are the USB port, memory card slot and MP3 player. But, the Game Boy Color could also hook up to cell phones, and the GBA is supposed to hook up to the Internet (probably with another cable next year). Also, the memory card problem on GBA can be cured by... bringing your game to someone else\'s GBA. ;) For $275 I\'d just expect more. Anyways, Squaresoft will probably develop for it when Wonderswan dies. LOL

It looks pretty cool and I\'d buy it if it wasn\'t 275 freaking dollars. Way too expensive. Maybe if it was 150 at most I would.
