Game Boy Micro

[ErikaFuzzbottom]

I just saw it at Wal-mart.

Who else could care less?

I must say, that thing is really small. It's kinda nice that it comes with a few extra faceplates, but it's not something I'd want to pay $100 for.

Re: Game Boy Micro

For a $100 you could get a used DS.

BARGAIN.

Re: Game Boy Micro

The only thing I can say for the Micro is the faceplates also act as screen protectors. I still need to buy screen protectors for my DS. I can't find any that aren't part of some stupid kit with a bunch of accessories I don't want.

My hands would engulf a Game Boy Micro and I'd never see it again.

Because of the black hole in your palm, right?

Re: Game Boy Micro

Yeah, but it's mighty useful for certain things.

I recently got a GBM. I'm performing some extensive diagnostics tests to see if it's worth your time.

Re: Game Boy Micro

Thanks for taking one for the team, Prog.

Re: Game Boy Micro

Probably not something we want. Smaller screen, smaller system, faceplates. I think that's the only changes to it since the SP. Only one of those changes is interesting. I wish they did faceplates with the original GBA.

Re: Game Boy Micro

Its why I love the PSP. Nintendo seems to think that the formual of "Smaller is better" works for all video game devices. I have used the GBM. My hands aren't large, and it was still hard for me to use. I can just imagine how it is for people with behemoth palms.

But, hell, its Nintendo. They have made MILLIONS from reproducing the same thing in different ways over and over again.

Re: Game Boy Micro

The new GBA SP (graphite and pearl blue) have the new high resolution screen that the Micro has, and they are backlit instead of from the side, so they're a lot brighter too. Frankly, for $80 the SP is much better since it has all the new technology that the Micro has and because it is a lot more functional.

I hope you don't mean screen size.

As far as I know, the Micro doesn't have a new "resultion". It just seems like that since the pixels are smaller and thus harder to see.
