The original Game Boy Advance fits comfortably into the pocket of a backpack. The retooled Game Boy Advance SP fits into a coat pocket. Now Nintendo takes aim at the pocket of your tightest jeans with the tiny Game Boy Micro system, quite simply the smallest and sleekest Game Boy product that Nintendo has ever created. It's thinner than a cell phone, as chic as an MP3 player and as fun as a Game Boy. In an instant it attracts attention and positions the image-conscious player as someone on the cutting edge of cool.

Small is the New Big: Nintendo Game Boy Micro

byB_Campbell Oct 4, 2005
84 Helpfuls 85 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Small: 4"x2"x1", light, extremely bright display, trendy, standard...
Cons Feels fragile, unprotected display, no Game Boy/GBC compatibility
Recommended it? Yes

Nintendo has practically owned the handheld gaming market ever since the release of the original big grey brick of a Game Boy. Back then, nobody cared that they were playing games in only pea-soup green or that the thing drained batteries like nobody's business; they could take those games... Read full review »

Big gaming in a small package

byeternityawaits Mar 28, 2006
46 Helpfuls 47 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Small, portable, customizeable, bright screen.
Cons Screen size is small, price may be a factor for some.
Recommended it? Yes

I don't think of Nintendo's Game Boy Micro as a new system, so much as I think of it as an extension of their already popular Game Boy Advance line. The system is essentially a Game Boy Advance in a smaller shell. I don't think of it as a "novelty" item either, as I do see more and more people of... Read full review »

NINTENDO 3DS: Are 3 Dimensions worth $250?

bybigtruckseries Mar 27, 2011
26 Helpfuls 27 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Innovative technology and higher build quality than previous DS units.
Cons Battery life, load times, uncomfortable D-pad, 3D effect can slow framerates.
Recommended it? Yes

The Nintendo 3DS is not the first device I’ve used by Nintendo designed to take advantage of 3- Dimensional perspective.  I actually purchased (and still own) a Nintendo Virtual Boy which I purchased for $50 on clearance many years ago - after it’s catastrophic price cut from $180...
