Advantages: Excellent size, Games are small, No crackling from the noise

Disadvantages: The Batteries run out very quickly

Nintendo have brought out a few of these handhelds over the years. Firstly there was the original Gameboy which was white and the games were in black and white. Then came out the colour Gameboy. The Gameboy Advance is either the third or fourth one they have brought out. Am not sure which though.

When buying the Gameboy Advance you have a choice of three colours to choose from. The three colours are Purple, White and also Clear Blue. They are all just the same though. The only difference is just the colour. I suppose the three colours are just to give everyone a choice of a favourite colour. I guess girls would pick Purple and guys the Clear Blue. The white would probably be bought by either male or female.

The size of the Nintendo Gameboy Advance is pretty good with the games also being half the size of the original Gameboy games. The on/off button is at the bottom while there are right/left buttons at the top of the machine, just like on a joypad. The orientation of the buttons and screen is actually quite good - it’s just like holding a standard joystick.

There aint many games out but the games that are out, are excellent indeed. Their graphics are really good and the sound is clear and you dont hear any crackling.

Overall excellent handeld and comes in handy when on a long trip for example. Even if your not on a trip its still worth haveing this. Take in mind though the two batteries wont last very long so thats a bit of a downside.
