The Game Boy platform (which includes the original unit, the Game Boy Pocket, and the Game Boy Color) came to market when most video game consoles had a life expectancy of just a few years. More than a decade later, the system is still going strong. How did the Game Boy successfully compete--and in some cases bury--an onslaught of faster, more powerful handheld and home console systems? Let us count the ways: affordability, a huge library of games that consistently made the most of the hardware's limitations, smart power management that extended battery life, and uncluttered controls. But perhaps it was the system's ultraportable design that allowed devotees to play video games around their schedule, making it the must-have system for kids and adults alike. Less
If you're a serious gamer looking for the ultimate console, the search ends here. Xbox 360 is fully loaded.

A 100% REAL, AUTHENTIC REVIEW BY A GAME BOY ADVANCE OWNER!

bygerper Jun 12, 2001

Pros Great graphics and games! Smaller unit, very powerful
Cons Poor lighting, no backlight
Recommended it? Yes

Normally, hand held games aren?t my thing, as I find that games simply don?t translate well to a small screen. However, I can honestly say that the Nintendo (and it?s no secret that I am not too crazy about this company), has really outdone themselves with the Game Boy Advance creating yet another...

If you have a Netflix account you can watch movies through your console/tv as long as you have an internet connection. The game selection is great, there are games for all age groups and skill levels. The... Read full review »

I really liked the elite better than the original 360 because it did improve some features. Although the elite is still to loud for me it is not as loud as our original 360. We also have not had red ring of death issues... yet. It does still get to hot and overheat with lots of use and we have had... Read full review »
