    meh, redisined systems and handhelds are nothing new, this is just a sign that the gba is at the end of its life,though whats appaling is a sp and ds is far more cheaper then this thing, even though ds is about 30 more, its like an extra 30 to have both, though the only disadvamtage with ds is that is cant play gb or gbc games, then again do many people still have those anymore.

    I think Gba micro is a step down from the SP. I bet you will see lots of those in bins soon.

    It would be a good deal if they marketed it at a fare price, but $100 US for a crappier version of the SP/DS is not a good move by Nintendo. Not to mention that the screen looks to have quite a bit of distortion with quite a few games, and hard to read text.

    the screens, in the models I saw at e3, were fantastic.

    Very bright, crisp and clean. I hope Nintendo didn't downgrade them :|

    It would be cool if it had a screen the same size of the DS. As it is it just sucks. A shame the screen is so good looking, though.

    These have been advertised on TV over here this week as part of the Mario 20th anniversary or something. So at least Nintendo have an excuse to release them here. Maybe they'll try the same thing in the west as well. The add shows someone using a Famicom pad which is stripped down (CG) whilst still playing and transformed in to a GBA Mini or what ever they are called. So it's basically the same size as a Famicom pad.

    I thought the GBA micro was going to be real cheap with built in games...

    Good thing I never wanted one in the first place!
