Saw these and thought i would add a post as you had none in Gameboy
Gameboy Micro
Aiming for the image-conscious folks who love video games, Nintendo today confirmed the Gameboy Micro will be launched in Japan on September 13th 2005. While PSP has already taken the tiara as the sexy goddess of portables, the Gameboy Micro is equally beautiful but in a very different way. Being a tiny 10 cm (4") by 5 cm (2"), and a stunning 1.7 cm (.7") thin, it's around the same size as an iPod Mini, but just two thirds of the weight. This is something that you can just slip into the pocket of your jeans, and at under 80 grams (2.8 ounces), it's half the weight of a GBA SP.

Hey, just fixed the links for you.
Although the Micro is a nice piece of kit, im not sure i need one, what with the SP and DS, already in my home. No doubt i will pick one up though, due to the consoles appeal.
And the size! _________________

I bought one, a while back... lovely piece of kit. The screen itself is lovely, perfectly good quality and despite my friends comments (he was doing awful at Street Fighter 3) it is perfectly easy to use.
The only problem I can find is the fact Nintendo havent blimming released any of the faceplates in shops yet - I have scratched mine up (accidently put keys in with it) and while it's nice to know I can get them replaced I want to be able to go and fix it up now and make it all perfect again
Anyways.. yea, perfect for just putting in pocket along with phone and mp3 player. |

Hi john;)
I am with you with the gba.sp comment, I do beleave that thay should have left it after gba.sp, I mean the gameboy name is only getting milked to much what next a gameboy PC?
The nintendo.ds is a great handheld console but its got it flaws.
Nintendo are a great at what thay do but i think its about time thay moved on to other things.

KINECTS-INVENTION FOR X BOX AND PS3
Kinect for Xbox 360, or simply Kinect (originally known by the code name Project Natal),[7] is a "controller-free gaming and entertainment experience" by Microsoft for the Xbox 360 video game platform, and may later be supported by PCs via Windows 8.[8] Based around a webcam-style add-on peripheral for the Xbox 360 console, it enables users to control and interact with the Xbox 360 without the need to touch a game controller, through a natural user interface using gestures, spoken commands,[9] or presented objects and images. The project is aimed at broadening the Xbox 360's audience beyond its typical gamer base.[10] Kinect competes with the Wii Remote with Wii MotionPlus and PlayStation Move & PlayStation Eye motion control systems for the Wii and PlayStation 3 home consoles, respectively. |
