Muscular 32-bit processor. Big screen. Great multiplayer features. Nintendo GameCube connectivity. And it slips easily into you hip pocket. The Game Boy Advance SP with the revolutionary Front Light Screen. Get your game on, even in the dark. Brilliant.

Summary: R.I.P.
Comment: I wrote that for anyone who is reading this, this is a dead handheld. As in years ago the Nintendo DS spawned off. And if you want to buy this, don't. I'm writing about what it was, not what it is, and it was a gaming marvel that continues to influence. For the many who owned one, we love it.
Customer Rating: Summary: best handheld, period.
Comment: the gameboy advance is my favorite gaming device. it singlehandedly got me into handheld gaming (never owned a gameboy before), and to this day, 90% of my game time is handheld. the original came out, i bought a glacier, and played the hell out of it for two years (even installed my own Afterburner backlight. now that was a chore). it was worth every penny.
the games themselves.....so many to choose from. all the mario advance games, the castlevania series, tactics ogre, final fantasy titles, puzzle games, baseball advance, the tony hawk series (which was incredible), racing games, the list is almost endless.
when nintendo announced the SP at E3 several years ago....it was love at first sight. it brought new life back to all my games, and even today, although i have a DS Lite as well as a gameboy player for my gamecube, i still break out my SP for short bouts of on the go gaming. it fits perfectly in my pocket, has a fantastic batter life, and an incredible gaming library. ten years from now, i still wouldnt be surprised if people still play on this thing.
pros:
small
inexpensive
backlit
cute as all get out
huge library of games
backwards compatible with GB and GBC games
attaches to the gamecube
cons:
hmmm. expensive for people with no jobs?
so, if you want to get as much bang for your buck on a handheld gaming device....pick this puppy up. no disappointments whatsoever on my end.

Summary: Enjoyable
Comment: I bought this for my husband a couple years ago and I ended up buying a different color for myself soon afterward. It holds a charge for a long time, it still in great shape and it's small, so it's easy to take with you on trips. Highly recommend.
Customer Rating: Summary: DON"T BUY THIS GAMEBOY!
Comment: Gameboy Micro is soo much better then this gameboy sp because...
It's smaller, the screen brightness can be adjusted, faceplates can be changed in about 15 seconds, it fits normal headphones, and it looks cooler.
Customer Rating: Summary: Great video game system on the go!
Comment: This is a great video game system because you can play it if your bored or you can play it ON THE GO!If you have planned a vacation and you don't have one Head straight for the video game store and get one! Although, I got mine 2 years ago but that doesn't matter! Now let's get back to my review! You can get this for your child so that they will have hours of fun and unlimited play! You don't need to worry about batteries because the Game boy has rechargeable batteries! Charging time approximately takes up to 3 hours! So why don't you BUY the fun at your local video game store and take your game boy on vacation or play it at home while your bored?
Follow these basic steps!
1. go to the video game store! (If you don't have one of these!)
2. Buy a couple of games!
3. Jump in the car and head straight home!
4. Open the box and read the instructions!
5. Insert a game cartridge
6. Turn the game on and start playing!
7. Charge batteries after done playing for the day!
Warning! If you see a RED light on the Game boy turn it off and charge it up!
So these are my last words!
Go and get it!
Goodbye!
