Anyone have the new Gameboy advanced SP?I do it very cool with the side lite.To keep on the car subject I purchased Colin Mcrae 2.0 pretty realistic rally gaming on a hand held. Top gear Gt championship is very cool has JGTC racing.Very cool graphics.

A buddy of mine imported an SP and to be honest with ya it's not worth the extra $100. It's a little difficult to hold at first and it's not actually backlit. It's lit from the sides. If you absolutley need one go buy it, otherwise save your cash.

BTW, I thought Colin McCrae 2.0 was horrible. It was a rushed title.

No backlit sucks. If you say light from the sides than thats like even worse

I should clarify:

The screen is lit by lights inside of all 4 sides of the screen. You can play it in the dark fairly well, but the middle of the screen is much dimmer than the rest of the screen.

k i got this thing the first day it was out and to be honest it really wasnt all that great. its way to bulky to be a good thing and kinda reminds me of the original gameboy....... i have all the gameboy types ever made and i must say that the GBA is by far the best..... and the runner up is THE ORIGINAL i know i say that the GBA SP is too much like the original to be a good thing but the 5 pound grey bulky thing is soo cool green screen and all !!!!!!! i still have it too! LOL

I really like the GBA SP I have already played it over 12 hours had to recharge it once.The controls are easy on the hands.The side light makes it great I did not realize how great the graphics are on some of the GBA games.Plus it weighs 5 oz and is the size of floppy disc in demensions .This one is a keeper.This is the ultimate micro game system to me
