I thought the first half was great and the second half amazing.

I'm jealous then. I wish I had loved the 2nd half so that I wouldn't have been wishing for its end.

The GBA has had so many awesome games, games that even to this day can stand against superior systems like my PC and still provide me with more enjoyment than any PC game can.

Actually, it was Popcap who pitched the idea to Square Enix. They weren't initially expecting Square to be in any way interested.

Either way with those 2 names behind it, it should be great. I mean Infinite Interactive was a nobody, now you get a Minigame and an RPG game giant working on something a nobody perfected so it should be awesome.

I can't imagine wanting a Game Boy Micro but to each their own, but I love my GBA SP even though it isn't a model 2 unit (not as bright)...

What superior games are you talking about, SchumiHiumi?

Superior games and GBA don't belong in the same sentence.

The Golden Sun series + some other RPGs + a whole whost of SRPGs + some remade RPGs + Pokemon Emerald/Ruby/Sapphire, Pokemon FireRed/LeafGreen (sure now that one is older one might consider these childish but back in the day they just ate up the hours like crazy), plus then I am a fan of card games in particular Yu-Gi-Oh! and I have spent more time playing the GBA versions of those games than any other game I own aside from Need for Speed 2 SE, and Need for Speed 4 High Stakes. I have also pretty much never awaited a game release as eagerly as I awaited the third installation of the MegaMan Battle Network series after playing the second.

If you're not a graphics whore there's a huge wealth of gaming bliss a GBA can offer you (though mainly Platformers and RPGs, the other genres did not get anywhere near as much exposure) which without emulation a PC can't even begin to do.

The GBA was out when you were in elementary school? You must've failed a bunch of grades.

j/k, of course. But yeah, I wanted a Micro. Sue me.

Indeed. They ARE very small, and the screen is too, but honestly, if you don't have the vision of a 500 year old person, you can read the text and see things just fine. The screen quality is fantastic.

The GBA's a classic. I still play GBA games sometimes on my PSP when I'm insanely bored.

It's interesting but I think I will wait for a sale as well.

The demo is nice!
