How many of you remember the GBA Micro?

[TheUnown7]

I do! It didn't sell too well...

I saw, like, ONE commercial for it on TV, and perhaps an ad in a magazine, and then I never heard about it since. <_< (Until now, anyways.)

a GB micro? what is that? (lol)

[Suyo]

Heard of it and instantly though WTF-

[Blablob]

I know, right? A GB.......Micro.....that had suckish games. i don't think it would've sold well. now maybe a Super-Duper GB, which has 3-d graphics, online connectivity, and built in online features like internet, calculater, paint, Youtube, Myspace, and a Shop channel that lets you download GB games not with money, but with the amount of time you use on your GB. if you spend 1 hour a day on the GB for 1 week, then at the end of the week you'll be awarded 500 points. (games cost between 500 and 2000 points depending on what threy're worth). It wouldn't be like a DS, what with the stylus and pictochat, but it would be a bit bigger (to fit a mini keyboard for the internet option which would be 2000 points) it would also have a built in video camera for pictures, videos, and voice recordings. the max points the game could hold is 10000, and you can also buy Super Duper GB points cards, $2 for 500 points.

woah...lets not get carried away there lol. (Good idea though)

When it came out I had almost every single gameboy (other than the original) and was a huge nintendo fanatic. (I still am, but im slightly branching out to sony.)

I saw one of my friends playing it and I was like what is that?!? Now, that i think about it, it was stupid to have a gba only system for the ds. Im sure it was because people were complaining about the size of the ds so tadaa!!!

The DS Lite is born.

That brings up another question, do you think Nintendo is going to ressurect the Gameboy?

[Buff_]

I remember the GBA Micro, but it was pointless since the DS had already come out.

That brings up another question, do you think Nintendo is going to ressurect the Gameboy?

Well it could go in many directions:

1. Nintendo ressurects the Gameboy as a seperate branch to the DS and keeps with the DS
2. Nintendo ressurects the Gameboy and leaves the DS in a few years
3. Nintendo doesn;t ressurect the Gameboy and lets it become a myth.
4. Some more I've forgotten about.

Although there have been rumors that theres going to be a new Gameboy and Nintendo have been working on it for years, but these are just rumors.

i guess the gameboy era is gone, and i'm sure soon the DS era will be gone and Nintendo will have to think of another unique way to play videogames. I guess by 2020 or something we'll actually be inside the videogames. And by then we'll have had the PS6. Ah, good times.

[fourinone]

we'll actually be inside the videogames.

This is pretty insane. : O (Clickage)
