Pretty neat

And I don\'t care what anyone says, that Micro looks like a blast.  If only it had a bigger screen...

Just the fact that the screen is so tiny equals a bad investment for the gamer.

This is ridiculous. I never use my SP but now I want a new one.

Must resist... urge...

Same deal with Micro. I have all the Game Boy iterations, but for $100 I have to pass. I could buy an X360 controller with that money! :rolleyes:

That thing looks like it was built in the 80s.

It is not like they are goin\' on a huge ad-campaign or charging a different price for this new backlit screen. Instead, they put on the box that it has an improved screen and quietly release it. No big deal at all. As for the Micro, it\'s just a niche\' product, nothing more. Think of it like Sony\'s Pstwo\'s.

The GameBoy SP is still what I would buy. I mean damn it\'s a sexy litttle beast if only it was around when I bought my original GBA. :(

Worked for the PStwo.

The screen is about the size of a cell phone screen, which, for some people, is perfectly adequate.  I can\'t stand tiny screens, not even the PSP, so I have no interest.

Just be glad nobody is forcing you to buy one, Uni.;)

Now thats the kind of civilised discussion I like seeing  ;)
(Unlike some others)

I can agree with you though.
