Re: Game Boy Micro
Making a link to some MSN site doesn't mean it isn't as dumb as it seems. It's still a dumb idea; Game boy advance, except smaller.Originally posted by RPGProgrammer
And not only won't it be bundled with the Play-Yan (he said "we might sell it" in North America, not "we will bundle it"), but the Play-Yan is crappy anyway. My friend has one, and the audio is barely freaking discernable. Its maximum encoding quality is like 28kbp/s, which, to anyone who knows a little about audio is complete crap.
Sorry about the rant, but the Micro is a compact (semi-pointless) gadget and nothing more. Just because you can buy a half-assed addon that lets you play crappy-sounding mp3s and video doesn't mean it suddenly defeats the PSP or iPod or any of the other things it's compared to. I guess I just know too many Nintendo fanboys who go around touting the Micro like it's the greatest thing ever made.

Re: Game Boy Micro
We weren't saying it was better than anything. Seriously, nobody mentioned the PSP except you.
And if it's cheap enough, it's something that I might buy to take with me and play on the bus. I wouldn't ever feel comfortable taking the PSP, because I'd get jacked faster than a garage sale copy of Chrono Trigger. Also, the battery life will permit me to be lazy about recharging it.Last edited by Nixon; 10-02-2016, 06:19 PM.Eat Smello.

Re: Game Boy Micro
Don't worry about it too much, Redneck. We didn't exactly pimp it as a rabid PSP killer or the greatest thing since sliced bread. It's an interesting little doodad, sure, however it's definitely no James Bond gadget. It's just a little something Nintendo made for the image-conscious; something to bring a few more people in who wouldn't be interested in getting any other GBA.
I may not get one myself unless whimsy kicks me in the tush and throws me into the store. The odds of that fluxuate.
Oh, and I added "(almost)" in that one post some time ago because it wasn't confirmed that the Play-Yan adaptor would be bundled with the GBM. In spite of the latter articles and interviews that made it less and less likely, I was just too lazy to edit the post further.
