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.

Playstation Portable (PSP): - Jack Of All Trades, Master of Just One

Pros Library, Sleek Cosmetics, Multi-Functional
Cons Isn't the Greatest MP3 or Movie Player, Load Times, Price
Recommended it? Yes

The handheld market, for as long as I've been paying attention, has always seemed to be on lockdown. Countless companies managed only abismal success, though it didn't always seem like they were prepared enough. This is until Sega hit the scene, and created the Game Gear which became the most...

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.
