Awww yeah. No, I didn't knock some poor girl up....

I got a Gameboy Advance SP! It's awesome in it's purest form!

I took some pictures of it with my (cheap)digital camera and uploaded them.

I'll answer any questions you guys have about the SP if you like.

Click on the thumbnails for large shots (800*600 to be exact)
Enjoy!

Open, but off, sitting next to my l337 IBM-optical-piece-of-shit-mouse.

Turned on, light on, with camera flash.

They're $99.99

A bit pricy, but I got my paycheck today, so I couldn't resist.

I love Kirby. First game I ever had was Kirby's Adventure. Too bad my NES doesnt work...

BOW TO KIRBY! MWAH HA HA HA! Sorry, got a little hyper there.

Does the shape of it make it more comfortable to hold? I read about it in nintendo power.

before i buy a gameboy advance SP i have to buy a new comp wind waker so i wont have one of those in my hands for at least a month...

im still a litle hesitant about buying one though... can you hold it in your hand comfortably? thats the only issue i have

Yeah, it's fairly comfortable to hold.

I'm not so sure how easy it would be to use the L+R buttons though since Kirby only uses the A+B buttons. I'll borrow one of my friend's games that uses those buttons to find out.

It feels a little like a gameboy pocket, if you ever had one of those.

Oh, I like the feel of the GBA more than the GBC.

Yeah, I do like the horizontal layout of the GBA, but the lit screen and battery pack are NIIIICE!

The screen is leaps and bounds above even an afterburner modded GBA. No banding, no Trapezoid effect, and no blue tint.
