There are a lot of great games out there for the GameBoy Advance, like:

MK:DA
MK:TE
MK:A (I thought it was good)
Donkey Kong Country
And a bunch of other great games!


But, Sony is coming out with a potable sysyem called PSP(PlayStation portable)! It has a 4+ inch screen and will be capable of full 3-D graphics and might even have as good graphics as the PS2! I suggest you get that next year(it comes out 2004 to celebrate Sony's 10 anniversary) instead of getting an Gameboy Advance. And who knows, MK:TE might come out for that, in 3-D!
There is more information on the PSP in the August 2003 edition of PSM!

Did they have any info on what price range the PSP is gonna be in?

It will probably be around 150-250...

Trust Me, it'll be worth it....


there is a poll on how much is too much to pay for it in the mag....

Cool.

Why would it come out for that if it is a gba exclusive?
I say get a gameboy advance sp, its awesome for any time ur away from home and you never have to buy batteries for it. And i'm sure this playstation piece of shit will eat up batteries so i say go with the GBA SP.

wtf....

It won't eat up bateries becuase it has rechargeable batterys too.

I don't think you can call it shit yet, it's not even out....

*shrug*

I'm sure the PSP will be a worthy competitor to the GBA. The only definite disadvantage I've heard about the system so far is the fact that it's supposedly more fragile than the GBA. Given how many times I've dropped my GBA, this is not a small problem for me.

In any event, a GBA SP should be well worth the price. As far as recommended games go (not including MK:DA and MK:TE, which are pretty good conversions), I'd recommend Metroid Fusion, Super Mario World, Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, Advance Wars 2, and probably Super Mario Bros. 3 when it comes out.

Just my $.02....

You and your 2 centz!! Gimme dem 2 centz!

j/k

Well anyway, I think that if you want a system that will last longer in terms of power, I would go with the GBA: SP. But if you want a design that will suit an MK handheld and something that is less expensive, then you should go with the regular GBA.
