Editorial Review:

Amazon.co.uk Review:
At first look, you might think the Game Boy Advance SP is a sleek travel alarm clock; when closed, it's just as tall and deep as the original GBA, but only half as wide. Its clamshell design protects the screen from everyday scratches. Open it up and the hinge will seek out a preferred, pre-set angle (about 150 degrees), though you can open it a bit wider or narrower for your own comfort. The hinge stands up well to lateral pressure.

Many decried the original GBA's reflective LCD screen and its reliance on external light sources. The Game Boy Advance SP's main feature--optional built-in lighting--fixes this complaint nicely. The quality of the backlighting is very good; it's bright and clear when looking directly at the screen, though less so from other angles.

The SP comes with a power adapter that recharges a built-in lithium battery; our informal tests found that it takes about four hours to fully charge (you can play it while it's plugged in and charging), and the battery lasts about 11 hours with the backlighting constantly on. Using the backlighting less often will conserve battery power.

Size, power, and affordability don't come without trade offs, though. There's no headphone jack here--you'll need a separately sold adapter--and the system isn't very loud at its highest volume. The L and R shoulder buttons are a fraction of the size they were on the GBA, and thus are harder to hit, and the reduced size of the SP is slightly less comfortable for adult hands than the GBA. The cartridge port placement on the lower part of the console is fine for GBA games, since they are flush with the console body, but older Game Boy Color carts will stick out in a way that takes some getting used to.

Overall, the SP is a significant improvement on, and seems just as rugged as, its predecessor--which has proven to be very rugged indeed. --Porter B Hall

This Is The Best Thing You Could Possibly Buy!!
Firsty Its Pink!! Which Means It Will Look Cool In Anyones Handbag! Also Its Stylish And Compact So You Can Take It Anywhere, But Thats Not The Real Beauty Of This, The Real Beauty Is The Games! The Screen Is Clear And Looks Amazing, You Can Get Soo Many Games For This, You'll Never Be Bored Again! It Comes With A Charger So You Dont Have To Keep Forking Out On Batterys, But Please Dont Do What I Done And Lose The Charger! I Lost The Charger A While Ago And Now I Cant Play It :( If You Do Buy This, Please Put The Charger Somewhere Safe.

- Nintendo does it again
It is a shame that Nintendo are the underdogs of Video gaming as they produce only the best games around. The GBA SP is of no exception, it is an absolute must have as the wide variety of games are a joy to play.
