Great for Gameboy games
931613
I like this case a whole lot. I collect Pokemon Gameboy games in their original cases. The cases fit perfectly in the slots. I can fit all 25 or so games in there comfortably with extra space for Gameboys themselves. The product is sturdy and convenient. The sleek appearance doesn't hurt either. Would recommend!

I love this handheld console. The GameBoy Advance SP not only feels great to use, but it houses many great games and, for as long as I've had it, it was barely damaged. It fits in your hand perfectly and, unless you have extremely small or big hands, won't strain after using it all day. All the buttons seem to be in the right place, so you don't have to reach your thumbs over to one of the buttons just to do one thing. The GameBoy Advance is, as stated, very strong. I've dropped it on the ground many a time, and it came up only with a frozen game and maybe some dirt. It lasted me 7 years or so before I lost it at a hotel. The GameBoy Advance has many great games, most with an art style that matches the Snes. Many great series started from the GBA, such as WarioWare, to name one.

  In all, the GameBoy Advance SP is a great handheld that I highly recommend. Even though it's very outdated, it's still fun to this day.

If you are a fan of Nintendo Gamecube and GameBoy you have to get the Game Boy Player. This is one of the best accessories to the Nintendo Gamecube / Game Boy Advance. It allows you to use your Game Boy Advance as a controller using the GC-GBA cable or a Game Cube controller. It also allows multiplayer of all Game Boy games even if you don't have two Game Boys. One person plays on the TV while the other plays on the Game Boy. This feature requires the GBA-GBA Link. It is a must buy for all Nintendo fans!

This worked great.  I used it to connect a Game boy Advance to a Game Boy SP for Pokemon trading.  No issues.

Unfortunately it has some glitches and first the buttons didn't work and then it kept shutting down. Excellent response back and a fast shipper too! Bought Dr. Mario cartridge with this that works perfectly on our sons game boy! Will do business again!

The primary reason I bought this was for playing emulated games. And it has worked flawlessly so far with the ones I've installed (GBA, SNES, and N64). This is an insta-buy for any serious gamer.

It does exactly what it was built for.  If you need headphones for your Gameboy SP then this is it.  It does NOT support newer headphones that have a mic on it.  If you have a mic on your headphones you'll need to get a converter.  I got the YCS Basics Smartphone / Stereo Headset & Microphone to Stereo Headphone Adapter Cable.

There was no work around for needing the second adapter for newer headphones and I'm not really upset about it since the newer headphones of today didn't exist really when the Gameboy SP was built.

5 Stars for the Game Boy Advance SP system itself, very handy portable Gameboy, perfect travel size.  Easily fits in your pocket.  Wonderful D pad and classic Gameboy design.  Easy functioning L and R top buttons.  Backwards compatible for the old classic Game Boy & Game Boy color cartridges.  It is like having your own personal Super Nintendo on the go anywhere.  the SP was a powerful little engine that could with host of great games for its time period.

The Gameboy Advance SP system I bought off Amazon was rated in "Good Condition" but had a terrible screen on delivery.  I only paid $50 with tax and shipping and I understand you get what you pay for.  But if something is in good working condition I expect it to be fully functional with minor wear and tear.  It was far more abused than the sellers description said.  It should have been rated in "Acceptable" condition.  The screen seemed to have a double border and the brightness of the screen makes it look like it is going to die at any moment.  Upon playing it for a few minutes it can be seizure inducing and very hard on the eyes.

I would suggest to other buyers to pay the extra dollars $80 to $100 to get a much better quality system with an intact screen and fully functioning buttons.  The only weakness I found in the system is that the R button easily gets worn down and stops working after heavy use.

We needed to replace my son's Gameboy charger but you can't find these at the store easily.  I knew Amazon would have what we needed for a great price.  The shipping was nice and quick, too.  Thanks!

Even with the Nintendo DS and Sony PSP out there, the GBA SP is still the best-selling portable video game system currently out there.

Design - The design of this console is excellent. It's small enough to fit in your pocket. Also the GBA SP comes in MANY colors, including red, onyx black, cobalt, platinum, and limited edition colors. The button layout is also very good.

Screen - Unlike the previous model, the GBA SP has a backlit screen, allowing you to play wherever you want, whenever you want. You can turn this feature on or off. Also this screen has a good size. The Flip-Top design allows you to adjust the screen to suit your needs. I recommend using the preset angle (150 degrees).

Graphics - This console can produce 32-bit graphics, which is very decent.

Games - With a library of over 700 titles, including favorites like Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Pokemon, and F-zero, you definitely can't go wrong here.

Backward Compatability - Not only can you play GBA games on the GBA SP, but you can also play GBColor and original Game Boy games!

Connectivity - To play multiplayer games, you will need to buy a GBA link cable, which allows you to connect 2 GBAs (or 2 GBA SPs). Some GBA games are compatable with the Nintendo Gamecube and some Nintendo Gamecube games are compatable with the GBA (or GBA SP). To connect the GBA SP to the GAMECUBE, you will need to buy a GBA / GCN link cable. Both of these cables are very affordable. Please note that...

To play GBA Multiplaer games, you will need...

name of item  qty

-------------------  ---

GBA (or GBA SP)  1 for each player

GBA Link Cable  1 for 2 players, 2 for 4 players.

Game  For some games, 1 copy of the same game for each player, however some games require only 1 game pak for multiplayer.

To connect the GBA (SP or Original) to the Nintendo Gamecube, you will need...

GBA (SP or Original)  1 for each player

NINTENDO GAMECUBE  1

GBA/GCN LINK CABLE  1 for each player

GCN Game Compatable with the GBA*  1

*Note: Check the back of the box of each GBA and/or GCN game to see if the game can use the GBA/GCN feature and if so what GBA games do you need to use this feature. I recommend going to Nintendo.com. They have a full list of games that are compatable with this feature.

Summary: This is one of the best video game systems ever. The small design, cool colors, and the large selection of games makes this system a must-have for any gamer or anyone who wants to get into video gaming. I highly recommend it. 5 out of 5 stars

Wow the game boy has come a long way from the 4AA battery green-screened monster I remember. I am impressed with the build quality of this DS lite, in fact I was so impressed that initially I wanted to buy another one just to show my appreciation to the company who makes it.

Good job guys, keep it up!

Many other companies, realize or not, have made Game Boy Advance players that you attach to your TV. Yet, none of them have had the complexity of this one. For all of you that do not know when this is coming out. Try June 26, 2003. Now for my review. This thing is awesome. It fits right under the Game Cube. It supports every Game Boy Game you could imagine from the original Game Boy to the Game Boy Advance. You can use a wired Game Cube controller or a wireless Wave Bird. With an optional Nintendo Game Cube to Game Boy Advance cable (sold separately) you can use your own GBA or GBASP as a controller. Not only that but you can hook up 3 other GBAs to your Game Boy Player and play Multiplayer. Next there is an opportunity to add your own personality to the player with Twenty on-screen borders and game play screen sizes are available. Finally you can hook up your Nintendo E-reader (also sold separately) and advance the use of special trading cards. I hope this review has helped you in your purchasing decision.

*This is a re-review. The first unit I received had a controller that didn't work. Amazon sent me an entire new console for free after sending back the old console. Everything works fine now*

I've had the Super Retro Trio for about a week now and overall it is a great system! It plays the few games I have and it even works on my 4K TV through the composite output (My TV has component input that is composite, RCA, compatible.)

Pros:
3 Systems in 1
NES/SNES look really good (I was actually surprised at how good they look even on composite)
Ability to use any controller with any system
Adapter's let you play Gameboy, and Gameboy Advanced games.
Hardware Clone, not emulation (Has all hardware for each system inside)
Less expensive than Retron 5 or RetroFreak

Cons:
Genesis Games don't look nearly as good as NES/SNES (text isn't as sharp)
No RGB output (No modding to get the image to look better, 32x won't work)
Only Svideo and Composite output (No HDMI)
Can't play as many systems as Retron 5 or RetroFreak out of the box.

Overall this is a great way to play NES/SNES/GENESIS games without having to hunt for the original systems. You can even play GameBoy advanced games with an adapter. Just make sure if you are hooking up to a new TV it has at least a Component or Composite input.

Games that I've tried and Worked:
VectorMan
VectorMan 2
Street Fighter 2
Earthworm Jim
Sonic
Sonic 2
Metroid (NES)
Super Metroid

For this price it's a great throw away cartridge for old guys like myself ;-)  Funny thing is, my 5 year old plays it more than I do.
My only complaint it that the GB SP screen is WAY too small for these games.  They were designed to be played on really large screens and it shows.

Excellent. Works great on PC for emulated SNES games.

Look all I wanted was a working gameboy in good condition and the seller provided. There was a mislabeling issue so I got a CLASSIC gameboy instead of a POCKET Gameboy. Regardless I was happy to get it and the seller was very helpful, saying I could return the product since it wasn't the one as advertised. So if you buy anything from this guy its going to be in good condition and if anything is off he will gladly help you out. As for my new red Classic Gameboy? I love it. This pocket killer brick has about 30 hours of battery life and works great, nothing wrong with it. Having fun playing pokemon Blue on it again. Great product, great seller. I recommend both.

Hey y'all I just bought the GBA in the Glacier colour and I think it's the best, especially when u can switch the colour pallets for the original game boy games and even play them in normal or widescreen mode.  Who cares if it's not back-lit, thats what all those GBA accessories are for right, and b4 any1 else whines about that they should just save up a few more bucks and by the SP!!  I don't have any games for my GBA yet other than my normal GB games.  But I like the system all the same.
And MBronx y don't you just take your GBA back if you just bought it and get an SP, u still have the receipt right?
I LOVE THIS SYSTEM!!!
And on a final note:
BAMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!
