Ahh, I wish I was young like you guys (I'm 42), because even though I have the GB Advance and some nice games, Zelda etc., I have rarely played them. I usually let my friends who are teens play with it! Ahh to be young again.

[rant] Why when I was growing up, we only had channels 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 11 & 13 to watch, none of this satellite 500 channels crap (and still nothing to watch) [endrant] ;)

The GBA is the best selling "next-gen" system, and the GB in general is the most successful, longest-lasting system in history.

Hey, mrpayroll, I'm 42 and I keep my GBASP with me, giving it a good workout. Although it has largely taken over for the lack of console playing, but it's easy to keep along and fit in some game time. Finally pried WarioWare outta the cart slot, and have been checking out Sega Arcade and Sonic Pinball.

Yeah, I carry it with me all the time in my bag, but that's usually for the time when kidz are around and seem bored, so I let them play it. I guess I get more satisfaction out of them playing it, than in me playing it :)

rechargeable batteries keep better when they are fully charged, so it makes sense that nintendo charges them up before packaging them up. The battery will be in better shape with a charge and sitting on a store shelf for awhile instead of dead dry for long periods of time, that would ruin the battery.

New Japan only GBA-sp with the buktai game coming soon.

Now that's the one I want.
