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

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...

This review is a Hardware review of the current Playstation Portable console (configuration: PSP3000)
The PSP 3000 differs from the PSP 2000/1000 in that it has a new (and improved !) LCD screen as well as a built in microphone. A Lesser talked about detail is the fact the system has...

Pros
<br>Large Library<br> PSOne and Minis are playable on PSP and PS3<br>...
Cons
<br> Downloadable Comic Books<br> Need to buy an 8GB memory card
Recommended it?
Yes
Just like the Playstation 3, the PSP (Playstation Portable) has seen its share of hardware upgrades. The PSP 3000 is the third in the line of PSPs. Before I go further, if you already own a PSP 2000 or the original model, you may as well stick with it. The PSP 3000 offers minor technical...
