After seeing how much my three year old daughter enjoyed playing the games on my mobile phone I thought it was about time I got her,her own games console and after considering the newer DS I decided it may be a little to hard for her to play and thought I would start her off with the older and more simple Gameboy advance,and the great thing is when I do decide to buy her a new DS all her Gameboy games will work on it as the DS plays the Gameboy games as well as its own. It costs around five pounds in the shops for the Gameboy Advance games but you can pick them up for a few quid less online,there is a wide range of games to choose from including the most ...  Read the complete review

This outdated games console was a present from my parents a while ago, and even though I've got a DS now, I continue to play on this from time to time since it holds quite a lot of sentimental value for me and I have several gameboy advance only games. I don't want to forget about it either and for it to gather dust! I have bought gameboy advanced games from various places on the internet ...(admittedly some have stopped working when I was more than half way through due to being fakes!) The games can also be hard to find depending on what you're looking for. This was released in most countries in 2001 and was the successor to the gameboy colour. The gameboy ...  Read the complete review

The Nintendo Game Boy Advance was released in 2001, I was playing on mine yesterday. That's how good they were. Creating a successor to the original Game Boy was always going to be something of a challenge, the system was one of the most successful gaming devices ever made and had successfully made a name for itself among gamers and non-gamers alike. Nintendo's dedication to practical battery usage, practicality and fun was only becoming established at the time but the Game Boy secured Nintendo as a company for years to come. When they developed the Game Boy Advance, they took the same principles and applied them with equal success. The most obvious ...  Read the complete review

Well i owned my GBA for about 2 years before i sold it, and i only owned about 3 different games on it, but i've seen a lot of GBA games and played them on emulators before. The GBA was a fairly big step up from the GBC, greatly improving the graphics, to somewhere in between the SNES and the N64, although it had greater graphics quality than a SNES, it didn't really have any 3D graphics like the N64. You can link up with friends on certain games, using a GBA link cable, or alternatively, players can buy a wireless network adapter for their GBA, allowing multiple players to link up together, unfortunatly as it was released near the end of the GBA's ...  Read the complete review

I got this as a replacement when i dropped my gameboy in the bath. Despite trying to dry it in the airing cupboard and even taking it to bits to do so, it never worked agaion, so when we went to America, Disney World to be specific, i was given gamebiy advance as a present that christmas, as wel as the amazing trip to Disney World. But would every kid think so at age 10!! Anyway this new gameboy was a bit of a scam it was the same but a different shape. the graphics were still as good or bad whichever is your take on them, and it still had the same games, as wel as new different shape ones which you couldn't fit into the old one, so later that year as the ...  Read the complete review
