yea, its the games that make a system great, not how tech savy it is....to a certain extent anyway.


....it annoys me that they keep making the cartridges smaller though. If they can fit that much on a DS cartridge, imagine how much they could fit on a original GameBoy cartridge now.


Well size doesn't necessarily matter. I think the chipsets of both DS cards and GB carts are built differently from each other and in a way that the DS still holds much more data than an old cart would have ever.....


yea thats what im saying, why make the carts smaller because they can hold more data even though their smaller...if they were still the size of the original gameboy's carts they'd have, what 4 times?, the space to store stuff. which would at the least mean longer games and probably games with better graphics.

*I'm not complaining about how good the DS is, its awsome. I'm just saying it could be better and I'm not convinced that miniturization is all that useful/necessary.

He was saying we don't really need expansions of consoles. (The GameBoy Pocket, the Advance Sp and the new designed Pstwo)

But EC is wrong about the DD cause that was add on, not a upgrade xp
The SP isn't like the GameBoy Mirco(Meaning that it isn't an "Expansion")
Both are.

Both are taking the idea of the Gba and making it better.

Sp gave us a clamshape to protect the screen, it is smaller than the GBa and it has a frontlight and recharable battery

The Micro is a smaller lighter than the Gba with a completly better screen and is totally backlit with a rechargeable battery.

Both are like the GBPocket was to the GB, smaller, better screens and better battery.
Ok, I know this is kind of late..
But isn't the entire history of the GameBoy about 'expansion'/giving it a new design?

There have only been 3 major improvements in the GameBoy's 16 years of life:
1 = Color
2 = Light
3 = Rechargeable


Um, what about SIZE?

I smell a technological advancement. "micro" technology razz


I would hope to god there would be a technological advancement, considering that there's a 15-16 year difference in the two.

I'd get one, since My GBA-SP was stolen, (I do have a normal GBA though.) but I think the screen is, if even slightly, smaller then the GBA, so, for that reason, I won't. (or is it the same size?)

It's smaller, but the screen is so sharp you won't tell the difference. Still I have really good eyesight, so opinions may vary..... sweatdrop

Lol, the screen makes the games so much more beautiful..

Not that I have it, but I played KH: Chain of Memories on my DS and it's so much more brighter and clearer.
