A 100% REAL, AUTHENTIC REVIEW BY A GAME BOY ADVANCE OWNER!

Date of Review:  Jun 12, 2001
The Bottom Line: An excellent system! Great graphics and sound. Lots of great games, backwards compatible with GBC games.
Review: Normally, hand held games aren?t my thing, as I find that games simply don?t translate well to a small screen. However, I can honestly say that the Nintendo (and it?s no secret that I am not too crazy about this company), has really outdone...

The Bottom Line: The Nintendo Game Boy Advance is definitely a step up in the world of hand held video games.

Is Gameboy Advance right for you?

Date of Review:  Aug 13, 2001
The Bottom Line: Definitely improved over Gameboy Color, but check out the games available before running out and buying it.
Review: With all the hype out there about the Gameboy Advance, my kids had the "I have to have it" attitude even though they had just finally gotten Gameboy Color for Christmas, thanks to their grandparents. Seeing the price of the console, we decided that...

My advice? Wait for some more games

Date of Review:  Aug 28, 2001
The Bottom Line: The GBA is great for side-scrollers and rpgs but many are still in development. A great system in the long-run but falls short of the hype so far.
Review: GBA is perhaps one of the coolest systems Nintendo has ever released. It packs some amazing sprite crunching graphics chip, a battery life that surpasses the old Game Boy and a reasonably sized color display. Top that off it has the standard built...

Game Boy Advance- Just what my kids wanted

Date of Review:  Nov 27, 2001
The Bottom Line: Great little gaming system, perfect for long trips as long as you bring plenty of batteries.
Review: Ever since my kids were given their first hand held gaming system for Christmas, they have been addicted to it. When their grandparents found out that they wanted one for Christmas they just had to send them one each. The hand held game system I am...

Game Boy Advance: Finally, a New Game Boy, But At What Price?

Date of Review:  Jun 13, 2001
The Bottom Line: It has its problems, but the games make Game Boy Advance a system worth getting.
Review: Before I get started, this isn't one of those, "I saw Game boy Advance at the store and it looks really cool!" reviews. I actually own the system. I'm looking at it right now. So this review is coming from the point of view of someone who's...

My wife's anniversary present... if she can stop me playing on it!!

Date of Review:  Oct 1, 2005
The Bottom Line: A good buy for those wanting a good handheld with a large catalogue of games. The SP is a better choice due to the backlighting.
Review: I knew my wife had been after a Nintendo Gameboy Advance for quite a while so I got her one as an anniversary present and guess what? I can t stop playing the damn thing now

It s not the newest handheld games machine on the market by any...

Game Boy Advance: If It's So Advanced, Why Can't I See Anything?

Date of Review:  Jun 12, 2001
The Bottom Line: It's just an average system until you get a light for it. But, once you can see the games, it blows everything else out of the water.
Review: I first saw these things in action at the GameCube Press Conference. Some people had been playing these things because they had bought the import, but not I.

You see my whole plan was to buy one of these puppies when they came out and then...

Gameboy Advance: The Latest Advancement In Portable Gaming (The Nintendo Write-Off)

Date of Review:  Aug 8, 2002
The Bottom Line: Introducing To You... The Ultimate Handheld Console.
Review: If you know Nintendo then you'll know that they have dominated the handheld market for well over 11 years; the Gameboy handheld has faced off against many superior handhelds like the Game Gear and Atari Lynx, but for some reason or another the...

Gameboy gets its first complete facelift after 10 years, was it worth the wait?

Date of Review:  Jun 18, 2001
The Bottom Line: Face it, sooner or later you will buy this little system. There is no denying it, and I officially validate your purchase here.
Review: Parents be prepared you will be buying this snazzy unit for your youngins sooner or later...trust me...

Nintendo's Gameboy...
