I am now the proud owner of the Nin Micro, thanks to ebay. :Dbiggrin.gif Anyone else here have one?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8249536735&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT&rd=1

It is supposed to have a couple extra items that doesn't come with the game system itself.

Now the only Nintendo system that I do not own is the DS, unless they have something I don't know about...

All I know about it is what's at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_Boy_line

Only available in Japan, the Game Boy Light was about the same size as the Pocket and had a backlit screen for improved visibility. It uses 2 AA batteries which give it approximately 20 hours with the light off and 12 with it on.

Interesting how much you learn when researching z80 processors.

I have Nintendo 64, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance, Nintendo DS, Gamecube.

 I have no commercial gaming consoles/handhelds, and I intend to keep it that way. Roms are more than enough thank you ;)wink.gif

The micro looks very nice as a hardware marvel, but I imagine that the small screen must make you crosseyed eventually. Still, the micro is the meaning of true portability.

I have a GP32 FLU... But, I would much rather have a GP2X (with dual 200MHz CPUs).

As for Gameboy... I like the new GBA with the new backlit screens.

You know what I think, they have had the next gameboy system out for a couple years now, but they don't want to release it until the price of the components come down. Look at how fast it went from the Advance to the sp to the ds. About a year between first to last, wasn't it?

Technincally they haven't made a new generation of game boy since the original advance. Hopefully the Evo in my above link is real...

It's only a few months old, and it's practically the size of your wide calc screen (hence the micro).

Yeah, it is an ity-bity thing...

@Arti: The main reason is everyonce in a while I want to play a game, instead of making one, and I seem to have a better selection for my gameboys then I do my consoles... :rofl:rotfl.gif
