8BIT 1337 Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 The lighting thing *can* be an issue but it doesn't have to be. Depends on how often you play, though, and *where* you play (I find myself playing on planes/in airports mostly, and the lighting there has never been a problem). What I like best about my GBA is it's comfort. For $10 I bought a plastic set of handles, similar to a PS2 controller. It's *way* easier to hold than my GBC was (I'm still looking for something similar for the GBC that doesn't involve rechargable batteries). Having said that, I'd *still* probably pick up an SP today if I had the choice between the two. Rechargable batteries and backlighting are nicer features IMO, and I can always attempt to find another handle-like work around for it's size.

JB Posted August 12, 2003 Share Posted August 12, 2003 I liked the wider design of the original GBA too (I was a Gamegear user way back due to Mappy, and I liked the Lynx too) but you people who said you could see it 90% of the time must have permanent head-mounted fluorescent lights with diffusers or something. Just sensitive eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
