New Gameboy Advance!

sonicfoot · March 19th, 2003

I saw posters im many computer stores of a re-modeled GBA called Game Boy Advance SP. I know its more smaller and has backlite, but is it graphically more powerful too?
(I still own the original Gameboy Advance when it was first released)

It's front lit, not back lit.

Yup the same as GBA, but smaller and front lit. Can get 10 hours play with light on and about 20 or so without it.

u guys forgot the 3rd and final primary differance betw. the GBA and the GBA SP,
SP comes with rechargable batteries (i tihink it also comes with the charging adaptor as well, so u can charge While playing), so no more wasting $$ on packs of AA batteries or tacking out nickel cad batteries to charge em
