Is a Micro another GBA, or a GameBoy Color?

Cool.

I do need a new SP. If the micro played GB games I'd get that instead. Oh well.

OK, called damn near every EB in Edmonton. They have no idea what the OP is talking about. Used GBAs for 29.99 yes. SPs new for that? No chance.

Anyone got a receipt or more info? Would love to pick some up for the nephews, but @ 99.99 regular price...i don't think so Tim.

OK, how is it that BC and Ontario have this sale, but Alberta apparently gets the shaft? Usually there is an East / West divide if anything, but this is bizarre.

Anyone in Alberta have any luck yet?

It will be at every store. Just ask them to check the price. AND once again for everyone the GBA SP is not on sale.

Well, I'm guessing you have the more accurate info--thanks for clearing that up. Wanted an SP. Guess I'll just keep waiting...

The SP is on sale, but only USED sp's. I checked out my eb today, they had signs.

Make sure you get them to check the old old ones, you know, platnium, blue and black. The new ones (pearl blue, pearl pink) willl not scan up as 29.99.

I haven't seen a new GBA or GB Micro in stores in over a year. Where do you people find this stuff?

Has anyone had any luck in the GTA?

Hey kedawa, did you ask the employees? At my ebgames the micro's were behind the counter, they aren't displayed.
Zellers has had GBA micros for $49.99 for a while now, at my store they have like 8 anniversary editions.

I'll check my local eb tomorrow and ask. Which SP systems are on sale? Are they only the old frontlit ones?
I already have a GB Micro, but at $30, I wouldn't mind picking up a spare.

I just got back from the Oakridge EB in Vancouver. They do has a few Micros for $29.99, but the guys behind the counter told me that GBAs are $99 new and $49 used.

HUH?!

I lucked out last night. I walked into the EB Games in Kanata and they had a silver GB Micro sitting on the counter for $29.99 (Last one) . I've been wanting to buy one since they came out but not willing to pay a lot considering I have to many GBA's :P
I wanted one small enough to keep in my purse all the time. I 'm playing though all the GBA Final Fantasy's, this will make leveling up easier.
The hardware is really nice, well worth the $30. I can read text perfectly on it. The D-pad and buttons have a good feel to them. I love the silver with the black face plate, it looks like a miniature version of my TV.
