The original Game Boy Advance fits comfortably into the pocket of a backpack. The retooled Game Boy Advance SP fits into a coat pocket. Now Nintendo takes aim at the pocket of your tightest jeans with the tiny Game Boy Micro system, quite simply the smallest and sleekest Game Boy product that Nintendo has ever created. It's thinner than a cell phone, as chic as an MP3 player and as fun as a Game Boy. In an instant it attracts attention and positions the image-conscious player as someone on the cutting edge of cool.

Small is the New Big: Nintendo Game Boy Micro

Pros Small: 4"x2"x1", light, extremely bright display, trendy, standard...
Cons Feels fragile, unprotected display, no Game Boy/GBC compatibility
Recommended it? Yes

Nintendo has practically owned the handheld gaming market ever since the release of the original big grey brick of a Game Boy. Back then, nobody cared that they were playing games in only pea-soup green or that the thing drained batteries like nobody's business; they could take those games... Read full review »

Big gaming in a small package

Pros Small, portable, customizeable, bright screen.
Cons Screen size is small, price may be a factor for some.
Recommended it? Yes

I don't think of Nintendo's Game Boy Micro as a new system, so much as I think of it as an extension of their already popular Game Boy Advance line.

Pros Current Game Selection, Specs, Hard Drive, And All The Possibilities
Cons Lack of RPGs, The Possibility of Abandonment

The benefits of the gaming industry have now officially become known to companies other than Sony and Nintendo, and Microsoft is always looking for a new market to take over, and so most were not surprised when Microsoft made the announcement that they were in development of a video game console...

Update 12-15-05
