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.

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.

Big gaming in a small package

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 »

Pros A few nice console-exclusive titles, cheapest of the 7th gen systems.

Introduction

I remember when I was a little kid and my best friend got a Nintendo Entertainment System. Before then, my experience with video games consisted of playing Burger Time on the Intellivision II and Combat on an old Atari 2600. I remember sitting there and playing the Super Mario...

Pros Nintendo franchises, Virtual Console, online play, very cheap, great same system...
Cons Accesories sneak up on your wallet, a lot of filler and souless ports
Recommended it? Yes

Nintendo has always been a company that does their own thing.  It’s a love/hate relationship with some fans, but die-hard Nintendo fans are incredibly loyal.  It’s a solid guarantee that Nintendo will release games that continuously set the bar for innovation and fun. ... Read full review »
