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
Nintendo 3DS includes two screens. The bottom touch screen makes use of a telescoping stylus that is stored in the unit itself. The top screen displays 3D visuals to the naked eye.

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

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...

Recommended it? Yes

I love the Nintendo 3DS! The graphics are smooth and it does so much more than video games--it can browse the internet, watch videos on Netflix, play and edit music, take photos and videos, and dozens of other things! It also comes with a 2GB SD card to save and load things on. It has an inner and... Read full review »
