Damn thats a lot of sales... Especially in 10 weeks. I wish I had the money for one. And yes that red one looks sweet. I hope I can get one before Megaman Battle Network 3 comes out.

Sorry to remove your link, Nintendo have a very tough stance on emulators and so on, and because of that I'm asking you not to link to them on here.

I've got a Platinum GBA right now... Soon, I'm gonna get a Platinum GBAsp, too.

I love my SP, It is the Shit, Oh god the loving glow of the light! The rechargable batterys, the Huge slection of great games, damn I love it, amd my old GBA too, but a little darker in the screen

Where can i get a black GBAsp in America? I see them on forigen sites but not in American ones! I'm putting out for a black one.

sgtfuzzbubble011 · 4th July 2003, 01:39

Just wait until it hits the shelves... (unless it has already). I haven't been keeping up with it too much because I've already bought a Platinum GBAsp.

I think I'm gonna buy either the black one or the red one sometime soon, too.

Damn, I wanted to tell everyone about this great emu site

Emu burgers, nummmmmy

/to get back on track, I wish I'd held out for a coloured GBAsp, my local stockist only had the regular silver model in, I think in time the silver GBAsp will become as common as the regular old grey gameboy from all those years ago.

Course if anyone wants to swap me one, or perhaps even buy me one, it is my birthday in 2 days and all gifts will be greatly recieved
