GBA SP Solid
You know it's tough to find a solid piece of electronic equipment than can actually hold up to a child's level of play. The GBA comes with a fairly solid frame and the buttons are positioned well for smaller hands. The screen of course is tiny but it's an older system so not much more we could expect from the time of production. I feel these are affordable solution from the DS and PSP. The menus and games are not super fragile so they can take being tossed around. The Color coating is a bit low quality as it scratches easy but it's for kids so I really don't mind. Used GBA SP are going for fairly cheap now so you can get yourself a nice deal for traveling with your little ones. Of course the LCD is the key these are not solid as the case so you will have to be careful that it's not pressed because the screen is a bit fragile. I've taken a few of these apart and it's very easy (with the special screwdriver) so replacing worn buttons isn't a problem. the only problem is if the COLOR goes on the screen that's a bit tougher to fix. It could be relate to the actual graphics card not the screen... Anyhow for the money it's a great toy for you or your little ones.Lire l'avis complet...
Gameboy Advance SP - Platinum
The GBA SP system is an excellent handheld system. It plays both Gameboy color and GB Advance games. I still have my SP even after getting a DS and on occasion will still bust out my SP to kick it oldschool with a GB Color game.
If your looking for a system for a child that tends to break things, right here is your system. Nintendo still releases new games on the SP. In fact, many of the games that are released for the DS have a GBA version as well, not all though.
The SP has a rather extensive library of games all at a reasonable price (something that can't be said for the competition...) that children of ALL ages can enjoy and add to that the fact that you can buy GB Color games for this bad boy and you've just doubled the gaming library. Nintendo doesn't seem to be dropping the SP any time soon, new games keep on coming.
This is a good investment for those who don't want to shell out over a $100 bucks for a DS. Though I'd recommend the DS, the SP is still alive and kicking!Lire l'avis complet...
GB Advance is a great choice over DS for young gamers
The GB Advance is durably built, has excellent battery life and a great selection of games and accessories. Please note that in 2003 Nintendo began producing the Advance with a brighter screen. I bought the original without the brighter screen and it is just fine. However, the brighter screen version is a better bet and my only regret is that I did not purchase that model. My 5 and 4 year olds actually are more comfortable with it than the new DS(to my delight). I recommend it for younger gamers but can hnestly say I enjoy it every bit as much as my kids do.Lire l'avis complet...
Wonderful Way to pass time in deer stand with husband
This is a learning experience for me. Occassionally I go to the box deer stand with my husband and needless to say I was bored to death. He has a gameboy that I gave him several years ago when he had back surgery and he would play Tetris (sp)to pass the time. I decided to get one for myself and unfortunately you cannot buy these in the store, only something really fancy that you can get on the internet with and I don't know what else. So I checked e-bay and here they are. I really like this one because it folds up and you can easily slip it in a pocket. Has color, a good screen that even someone like me with horrible eyesight can easily see and is very easy to use. I just have to find games that I will like beside Tetris. One thing you need to be aware of is when you buy games be sure to buy ones with instruction books or if you buy a gameboy and games come with it but no books you can buy them elsewhere. Maybe you can figure out how to play without the books but I am 72+ and need the books. I highly recommend this Gameboy. Oh one last thing. I gave one to my Granddaughter 3 or 4 years ago, her older brother was using it and left it in his pants pocket. His other grandmother washed the pants without checking pockets so the gameboy went through the washer and dryer. Needless to say it would not work at first but I put it on the kitchen counter to see what would happen when it really did dry out completely. End of story, after a couple of days it came back to life as good as new and is still working. I don't recommend washing one but I do know of one that was none the worse for the trip in washer and dryer.
Gameboy advance can play games made for the older Gameboy so that is a real advantage if you know someone that has that type games. The older GB's cannot play games for GBA or sometimes called Game Boy Advance Special. You can go backwards as far as using games with GBA but with the first or second generation Game Boys you cannot play the newer type games.
Well this is far more than you ever wanted to know but if you have a lot of waiting, doctors office, hospital waiting room, deer stand, in the car on a long trip anything where you need to pass the time - this is for you. Also they tell me playing with these games will keep your mind sharp. Must say I'm still waiting for that to happen but then maybe mine is too far gone to be helped. cjwdLire l'avis complet...
Insanely good value with an enormous library of games
I bought this because lately I've sort of been wanting to collect some retro games. I had also been planning on buying a Game Boy Advance since I no longer had a way to play my GBA games since I traded in my old DS towards a 3DS. I had owned a Game Boy Advance before, but not the SP. I can safely say that I've probably been a bit spoiled by the newer systems lit screens and even with the side-lit screens of the SP, it just doesn't compare with modern handhelds. Definitely go for the brighter screen model if you can.
That being said, even with the screen being a little dim it still gets the job done and the system overall is phenomenal. All the buttons just feel so tight and accurate. This system might just have the most satisfying feeling d-pad I've ever used.
Of course the most important part to ensure a gaming system has value is it's library of software, and that just happens to be the area in which the Game Boy Advance shines the brightest. The Game Boy Advance systems are backwards compatible to work with ALL Game Boy games (with the exception of the Game Boy Advance Micro). With as many great games that are available throughout the Game Boy's lineage, the affordability of the games and the hardware, and the build quality of the system, the Game Boy Advance is an absolutely insanely good value. If you're looking to start collecting retro games, there's not much of a better starting point than a Game Boy Advance SP.Lire l'avis complet...
GBA SP refreshed
Great product. Needed a couple tweaks to the power line to make it functional. It’s been moved to a new shell and new screens and works like new.

Nintendo
What wouldn't I recomend from Nintendo? Give me a minute,..........I am thinking,............Hmmm.
How could one resist Mario and friends. Now availible on Micro, Game boy Advance SP, and Game boy advance. I bought the SP and the Micro for the games, and the ablility to play the games that I like on a screen that I can actually see.
The screen on SP is very visible and easy to play a game on, where as the screen on Micro is small, but very bright. The contols on SP are perfect in size, and, sometimes I have trouble with the controls on Micro, because they are a little small.
How does GBA SP and Micro rate in comparison to PSP. In my opinion, it is like comparing apples to peaches. Although they both are designed to play games, and the controls are very similar, they are still two very different products.
Pros and cons :
* Psp can play movies on both UMD and Sony Memory Stick Duo, provided that the video file is converted to be used with PSP, using special software. ( Video 9 is offered free on line. )
* Nintendo can play movies, but they must be converted to a special file with special software. ( it is often offered with the movie player. )
* Psp has a memory expansion slot ( for Sony Memory Stick Duo )
* GBA and Micro only have a memory expansion slot for SD cards, if the movie player cartrige is purchased.
* Psp displays photos
* GBA and Micro only display photos if the movie cartrige is purchased
* PSP offers wifi access at hotspots
* GBA and Micro do not have a wifi card built in.
* PSP has a great big beautiful screen
* GBA has a nice screen. Micro has a small but bright screen.
* Psp slim = 150.00 to 200.00 Psp 1000 = 100.00 - 200.00 without accessories other than the charger, ( and that is used. )
* GBA = 40.00 - 150, both new and used, Micro 40.00 - 200.00 sometimes with accessories.
* Psp offers a few different colors
* GBA and Micro come in many colors
* Psp does't have any of the Mario Brothers or Donkey Kong games
* GBA and Micro are compatable with most of the Mario and Donkey kong games.
* Psp can be connected to the Tv ( 2000 model only )
Sony is a great product for several things, gaming being one of them, but not considered primary. The games take a couple of minutes to load, which can be very frustrating. However, I do enjoy the UMD movie feature, having wifi access, and having a neat device to store my videos, and photos.
Game Boy Advance SP is for playing games, and, playing games. I know that some people think they want an all in one product, it sounds great. However, the problem with all in one products is that, they are designed to do all, but not one, thing realy well. GBA SP may be a little old, but it is still a great portable gaming console, made to only play games, and play them well.
What would I change about SP? I would add an AV feature so that I could play Super Mario Brothers on tv, and, I would create a cartrige that allows for me to play DS games on SP. Other than those two things, I think that both GBA SP and Micro are fabulous products.Lire l'avis complet...
The ultimate Game Boy system.
If you have a DSi or 3DS, you already know that you can't play your Game Boy Advance games on either of these systems. Even if you have the DS lite or the original DS you don't have access to the older Game Boy or Game Boy Color game library.
That's where the Game Boy Advance SP comes in.
This system is great for playing those older games! It has a lighted screen and rechargeable battery, so it is very easy to play whenever or wherever you want. If you're like me, and want to always have access to the entire Game Boy collection (Pokémon Red/Blue/Yellow/Gold/Silver/Crystal, anybody?) look no further than the GBA SP.
If you can get your hands on a backlit model (AGS-101) it looks a bit nicer than the standard frontlit model (AGS-001), but for a lot of people the backlit model is a little too expensive (usually running about $100 more than the frontlit) If you don't know the difference, there's plenty of YouTube videos that can show you. I bought the frontlit, because when I compared price to features, the backlit wasn't really worth the extra money. This is only my opinion, of course.
All in all, this is a great system, and I think it should be in any gamer's collection!Lire l'avis complet...
Good
Shipped fast, good packaging, but charging port is messed up alittle. Bent upwards, kinda hard to wiggle a charger in to charge the battery.

Excellent!
The battery doesn't last too long (due to its age and new batteries aren't expensive), but with a headphone adapter this is easily one of the best consoles Nintendo has made
