Software: Compatible with most Game Boy and Game Boy Color games. Game Boy games can be played using the same selectable color palettes as on the Game Boy Color.Nintendo was planning to have the SP be 3D-compatible, but the resolution of the LCD was too low, resulting in Nintendo scrapping it. [15] Internal [ edit ] The SP, on the other hand, was intended to appear a more grown-up device and was therefore marketed as such. Its colours were more muted - its all-silver option made its hinged design look like a small laptop. Its angular shape was more business-like (and its dinky shoulder buttons rather less ergonomic to hold down). But all of this made sense - right? Nintendo already had a successful Game Boy Advance for the younger market. This one was for a different and more narrowly-targeted demographic - something its advertising also reflected.

Naturally, the Game Boy Advance SP has the same powerful features that have made the Game Boy Advance so successful (e.g. the multiplayer mode that allows up to four people to play together via the Game Boy Advance Game Link Cable Set, which is available separately). Battery life: 10 hours continuous play with light on, 18 hours with light off; needs at most 3 hours recharging. Korth, Martin. "GBATEK LCD Dimensions and Timings". problemkaputt.de.

They’ve been around since 2000 B.C, over 10 million Americans have one and celebrities such as Eminem, Robbie Williams and Angelina Jolie can’t get enough of them. What are they? That’s right, tattoos – coming to a Game Boy Advance SP near you soon! And to be honest, even those can't compete with the SP. Maybe it's about time I finally get one!

Anyway shortly after that debacle I bought another GBA SP, the dark blue one and had that one till a few years ago when it was stolen from my house after a fire.

All of this isn't to say the SP was the only time Nintendo was horny on main. The arrival of Nintendo DS and its touch-based screen gave the company a seemingly irrestible oppurtunity to take things up a notch. Here in the UK, Nintendo advertising sponsored Channel 4 comedy shows with short adverts that made it look like a man was about to get a handjob. The slogan "Touch It" was used here, a more adult version of the "Touching is good" phrase seen in other advertising. It is truly, truly cringeworthy now.

For starters, you could now properly see the screen, and for me, it sort of just refreshed every game I'd already played to death at that point in time, from Sonic Advance to Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2. The clamshell form factor was also quite pleasing at the time, with its flip phone-like design, which also did a fantastic job protecting the screen. Then the buttons — they just had that nice firm feel about them... it was just a premium experience coming off the launch model. Brighter SP coming to Europe". eurogamer.net. September 23, 2005.
