NICE! Now I can finally play GBA games on my TV without having to squint at a small screen under a desk lamp! A lot of Game Boy Advance's games are more in-depth and detailed (graphically AND plot-wise) than many SNES games, so it's about time Nintendo let us play them on our TV's. Not only does it play GBA games, but every Game Boy game ever. And at a price like $41 (will probably sell for $49.99) you can't go wrong. 2D gaming 4-Life.

Fok that, get an emulator. Free and already the apporiate dimensions for ultimate non-squintage!

But don't take my word for it...Doot-Doo-Doot!!

GBA emulators are glitchy
and slow. Also, they just
EXPAND the tiny screen on
your monitor and use filters
like blurring and interlacing
to make up for it, rather than
maintaining the proper
resolution. I have no real
gripes with emulation...
hell, I have every SNES rom
ever known to man, but still
there's NOTHING like the
real experience of playing
the actual cartridge with the
real control on your real
system.

I'd have to go with buying this thing. Emulators are okay, but they still suck compared to the real thing.
