The next gameboy, Gameboy Micro, is just a smaller GBA about the size of an Ipod mini.

Why does Nintendo hate me?

Because you post in the wrong forum about a console that already has a few topics

It worse because I was like no way I will ever buy a 3rd GBA but I'm such a sucker for small and portable.

It is in the right NINTENDO forum, and I can't find any other topics about teh Gameboy Micro.

I read that your a sucker for more then just a portable.

Who the hell needs a smaller system? I think the buttons will be uncomfortable.

Agreed, my hand already gets cramped with the small buttons of the DS.

The SP is fine as it is, I think they may only be trying to spur sales but at the same time that seems like a dumb idea when they could be pushing the DS since it plays GBA games.

It concerns me that Game Boy Micro has an exposed screen like all the pre-SP Game Boys. This means that most kids will trash it in no time, and used examples in good shape will be tough to come by as a result.

It is going to have to be very cheap and durable to make it more appealing than the SP and better than the DS for people who only want to play GBA games.

Do I smell a $49.99 launch price? I hope so! Regardless, if this is under $80, I will pick it up. Sure I have a DS, but thats just sexy.

Well, with the Game Boy micro, I will have room for my heroin rig in my back pocket. That's awful nice of the Big N. Who says they're just for kids?

myke.
...seriously, they just gave us the DS. Do you really want *another* console, given that the next big 3 are around the corner?

I already have 4 GBA's, so this really doesn't appeal to me. I might use it as a gift for friends though.

While I hope it is $50, Nintendo is not really known for making us pay less for the same thing over and over again. Examples: Pokemon, NES Classic Series.

Try 4th: I bought the GB Player.

I hope its 20 damn nintendo they make a collectors life annoying

It'll be cool to have a smaller Gameboy to play with.

I'm happy that the Game Boy platform has has been supported for so long, but I think it's time that Nintendo moved on and gave us the Gameboy Revolution or whatever. It seems that the DS really is the successor to the Game Boy even if Nintendo is telling us differently. I don't think that having two screens is any big selling point for me, so I'll just stick to the SP. Kind of reminds me of when Atari was selling the 2600 and the 7800 at the same time.

it does look cool, but damn, know when to cut it. That does look tempting though.........DAMN YOU!

I'm getting one. I loved the original GBA. The SP is nice, but I find it uncomfortable compared to the original GBA. I just hope it is cheaper then te current GBA SP.
