GBA Micro System Famicom - JP Version Reviews

Customer Ratings:

I've had every version of Game Boy since it's release in the 80's. To be honest, before I bought this I had forgotten all about the Micro. My personal favorite remains the clamshell SP version, but this one is quite good as well. The pictures don't really give you a sense of size, but if you have a Game Boy cartridge just know the screen is smaller in length by comparison. That's freakin small! The advantage is less pixelation and perhaps better battery life. The speakers are almost nonexistent so plan on bringing headphones if audio is important to you. I happen to enjoy headphones. The weight is very light and like the SP version, a Game Boy Advance cartridge sits flush with the unit's body. Instead of normal games, I use a flash cartridge that allows me to store a library of 30 or 40 GBA games, plus emulators for NES, Super NES, Sega Genesis, Game Gear, and original Game Boy games. Despite it's small size, the Micro is able to render everything sharply; it's just abysmally tiny. Don't get this version if you have fat fingers! Other than that, this is the special edition that has Mario on the back. If you're going to get a Game Boy Micro, this is the one you want.
