Bad Points

Not a long battery lifespan (about 15 hours), nothing really too new, can be comparable with older consoles.


General Comments

Well, I haven't really bought a Gameboy Advance yet, but have tested probably about 14 GBA games. It's not too bad of a console, but I believe it's a little bit too overated. Some pros is its easy to hold and carry around, because it is lightweight and small. Has a large variety of games, and compatible with the gamecube and older gameboy games. It also has decent graphics, but my neo geo pocket has almost as sharp of the graphics, and was a lot cheaper. The con is that it lasts half as long as my neo geo pocket. The GBA lasts 15 hours approximately. Some older consoles can actually make as much money as nintendo GBA, if they were more familiar. Like the nomad can actually play their genesis console games, neo geo pocket can hook up to the dreamcast (love my dreamcast)and has a lot of decent graphics. So, the technology in the GBA is not too new or great. Most accessories on the GBA you can find on the neo geo pocket. Such as Rock and Shock, rechargable accessories, link cables, etc. No offense or anything to the Nintendo fans, but the only reason why GBA is highly rated and makes more money, is because it is more familiar with the US, and kids. But overall, as much as I don't like to give Nintendo a lot of credit, it's a decent console or a pretty good console. So, I decided to get it for my b-day. I'm getting a pink one ^_^! Puyo Pop rulez!
