On a console-modding site, I saw a picture of limited edition GBASP that was orange and shiny, and highly sexy. After some looking around, it seems that it is a Japan only Pokemon promotional item. So I check on Lik-Sang, and they have it on sale for... <puts finger to lip a-la Dr. Evil> two hundred dollars! EBay is no cheaper, and I can only find it elsewhere for $195. I want one of these beasts, but I'm not about to shell out double the going rate of a standard SP for one. Does anyone have any suggestions for sites that may have it cheaper?

[Edit] According to this (http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/) page, it's comming to the US later this month, and for the price of a normal GBA. :thumbsup:

I've seen that before. It has a shilloette (sp) of Torchic on the back of the screen in case you couldn't tell. I'm just fine with my cobalt GBA SP though.

Well, it looks awesome. If you do plan to purchase the Japanese one(which is stupid, since it's coming to the US in about 10-15 days), at least there's no regional lockout, meaning you don't need a Freeloader/modchip to play Japanese or PAL games.

There's a dark red colored GBA SP coming out too, along with a black one. I might get the red one.

I was also thinking about importing Magical Vacation. Even though I wouldn't be able to follow the story, I really wanna play it. Why doesn't Nintendo bring it over here!?!?

I think you might mean the Boktai: The Sun is in Your Hands GBASP. It's both red-and-black, and looks awesome. I really want it.

No, there is a shiny red one that's coming out soon.
