One of the greatest handheld systems of all
time. It makes sense, as it's essentially a remake of the Last Great
Game System.
Had one of the most expansive
game libraries of all time, as it could play most other Game Boy and Game Boy Color games. Reasons to buy this system or its successor, the GBA SP, include but are not limited to: Castlevania COTM, most of the Final Fantasy games, the
Pokemon series, and the Legend of
Zelda series.
Those unlucky few who fail to realize that the SNES lives on in the GBA and later the
DS and DS Lite are doomed to waste money on games and systems that focus so much on graphics over gameplay that they'll be playing episodes of Friends while the true gamers like us will be playing the games that made and continue to make history.
