Has anyone seen the new micro game boy that apparently aimed at girls? because of its "feminine" colours


the new Game Boy - Lee-yoshi - 22-08-2005

It doesnt have feminine colours, it can have any colour you want, because its got inter-changable faceplates. You buy the outer shells which just clip on and hey presto, its almost brand new! lol

Besides, you can buy it in 4/5 colours to start off with, one of which is pink, where as the others are, well what you'd expect really. Micro just to me though looks, 'too' small!

The idea behind the thing is:
"Well, GB pocket was so popular, we should try making it even smaller!"

Of course, the reason GBP was so popular was that the old system was so huge! Even if it was a "portable" system, no one actually carried it around with them! In any case, the GBA is small enough. Heck, I didn't even get the flip-top ver of GBA...

its just that i saw it the paper and it said there were only 4 colours (baby blue, light green, pink and silver)


the new Game Boy - Lee-yoshi - 25-08-2005

Those are the 4 initial colours yes, but like i said you should be able to change the outer shell with extra faceplates you can buy when theyre released. I think thats the case anyways...

Anyways the GBA Micro is just a very very small GBA - Coming with a backlit screen, volume control, headphone port, and a brightness control (Which no other GBA's have), and the screen is the same size as the original GBA's! Itll also be released alongside the European version of Japan's Play-Yan (A GBA/Nintendo DS device that lets you watch video/listen to music etc).

thanks for clearing that up for me lee-yoshi (darn sun newspaper)

It's quite silly really, unless you just like the smallness of it, because you could get a DS for only £20 more...

But they look really cool. Those colours remind me suspiciously of the iPod Mini...

Its so small XD *pokes*i think ill stick to my DS. No point in spending money for the sake of it

Feminen? (SP) Isn't the original color if without plates platinum?

Nintendo + Platinum = Lovers! Tongue

Eh, my DS works quite fine and is quite portable with its size. No need to purchase an even smaller GBA. Although... the brightness control does sound nice it doesn't warrant a purchase of it.
