5 out of 5 stars Great System! The DS is NOT replacing the SP!   February 22, 2006
  6 out of 8 found this review helpful

I read the spotlight reviews and noticed one thing: they said the Nintendo DS is replacing the Gameboy Advance SP. This is NOT true. Nintendo has clearly stated that the DS is their 'Third Pillar', Gamecube, DS, and Gameboy SP respectively. So, don't hesitate to get this system, as they are continuing to make Gameboy games. Personally, I prefer this over the Gameboy Micro, but that's just me. Also, Nintendo recently upgraded the SP light to a backlight, compared to a side-light. However, I believe you can only get the backlight version with the 'Graphite' and 'Pearl Blue' colors, but I'm not quite sure... If you look on the packaging, it will say on the front 'now with a brighter screen!' if it is the backlight version. Anyway, great system, great games, and it is highly durable. Highly Recommended!

I am 14 years old, and while some people may think that is a little bit too old to still play Gameboy's, It's my guilty pleasure. Now, onto the product. Let me just say this is a fabulous improvement from our Game Boy Advance. Yes, the GBA was a great system. But come on, as we progress in this world; Electronics will get bigger and better. I think one thing I am most satisfied about the SP is it's great built in Light screen. Let's face it, most people that are or have been playing GBA are going to complain about the same thing. They can't see what they are playing on the screen. Fortunatley, Nintendo has released us from our annoyance. The SP has a great built in light that's is absolutley perfect for playing in the dark. I know I myself love to play into the early hours of the morning under my covers without having any lights on. What I also enjoy about this SP is the Charging ability. I admit, this will save me tons of money for AA batteries. All it takes is plugging in the charger and hooking it up to the Gameboy, and BOOM! in 45 minutes your gameboyis fully charged for a good couple of hours of intense action play! The last feature of this that I find unique and satisfying is the cover. You can open and close this Gameboy. Not much I can say about that, except it's a great way to prevent scratching the screen and damaging it. Overall, EXCELLENT invention. GREAT JOB NINTENDO!


5 out of 5 stars Must have handheld   December 10, 2005

GBA SP is a HUGE improvement over the original GBA. First of all, the back lit screen is revolutionary. It's a must have for all handhelds. I mean how did we go through 13 years of no light. Also there is a built in battery that is rechargable which is nice. You get about 8 hrs with the light and 10 hrs with no light I think. It flips opens for easy storage and the screen doesn't scratched as much. It's very portable and very small. Everything is fantasic about it. Except there is only one flaw. No headphone jack. Many gamers have complained about that. I don't mind it. It doesnt matter to me. Go buy this if you want a very revolutionized handeld. Must Have!


5 out of 5 stars BEST NINTNDO HANDHELD!!   November 23, 2005
  4 out of 4 found this review helpful

The GameBoy Advance sp is the best ninendo handheld ever. Ive had a nintendo DS before and I hated it. It was the same exact thing as the SP and the gamechips for it are so small youll lose it if you dont leave iits case. And also had the newest gameboy the Gameboy micro. Its way to small im eleven and its like a toy car in my hands. Even though its ten dollars more at 89.99. I highly recommend to the SP its only 79.99 for a new one and 59.99 for a used one at your local ebgames. I traded in my micro or the sp now I know I made the right desicion.
