    Duration of ownership: 1 Months

    Strengths: Excellent graphics, great sound, perfect for small hands, lightweight

    Weaknesses:Doesn't work with my game shark or GBC titles

    Overall Evaluation: I think the Micro is a pretty cool handheld. It fits in my pocket and has a wonderful screen. You'd never know from its small size. I've owned the original GBA w/Afterburner but it doesn't compare. The graphics aren't nearly as crisp and neither is the light. I just wish they made more faceplates for it.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: -Backlit screen!!!-Changeable FacePlates (how wicked cool is that??)!!-Rechargeable Battery!!!-Sleek, pocket-sized, even sexy design!-I was mesmerized the moment I saw the ad.

    Weaknesses:-Only plays GBA games, but there are so many that it is not a major drawback.-directional pad a little slippery.

    Overall Evaluation: Once I saw one, that was it. I had to have it. And I wasn't disappointed once I pulled it out of the box. This thing is hot. I am addicted to its shiny, compact design (like the sports car of Game Boys). The lady at Wal-Mart tried to get me to buy a GameBoy SP, claiming the screen was bigger. I thought, "Duh." The GameBoy Micro Screen, in my opinion, is fine the way it is. Backlit, and shows graphics excellently. Sound quality is fine, and you can adjust screen brightness and sound. Has all the buttons (L and R for example) that the GBA has. Get this: it even has a place to hook up a neck strap to it, making it every bit as versatile as an iPod. There are are 3 faceplates that come with each GameBoy Micro, and two color options for the Micro itself. I have a feeling that this thing will be around every kids' neck after Christmas. ^_^
