I don't heart Nintendo

In fact, I think they've been reduced to a bunch of idiots.
$130 for a crap little handheld? Yeah, that sound intelligent...
This thing is gonna drop faster than the VB...if not for the GBA game library...

UPDATE: Still not good enough...

Console fanboys, sixth-graders, and the like would have wrote:But OMFG it's sooooo tiny! I just HAVE to buy it and throw away my functionally-identical SP!

I didn't even buy a GBA SP because I already have a GBA!

Jeez this is what, the third Game Boy Advance platform? And people say Sony is bad because they redesigned the PSX and the PS2.

Update:

Yahoo! News wrote:The company is expanding its portable offerings in part to counter sinking sales of its Nintendo GameCube amid rival offerings such as Sony Corp (NYSE:SNE - news).'s PlayStation and Microsoft Corp.'s
Xbox.

re-releasing an existing (failing) console is "expanding their offerings"? I think not. And the GCN is still sinking in sales? No commenbt... Take THAT Nintendo! ZING!

Sony has redesigned the PS twice. The firts Playstation had 500 or so sales, then was re-released as the Playstation X. Then it became the PSone.

i think sony is crap cause they are on their 13th revision of the PS2 and STILL havent fixed all the major problems.

I can understand the whole deal wth 3 GBA systems. I was pissed when the SP came out. I was pissed cause i spent $80 on the console, and $30 on a backlight. But then again, i do liek the SP, and i did want to get one for my g/f, so we just got an SP.

Considering the price drop of the DS to 130 sometime in September, I cant see them selling for than a handful (a 3 year old's hand, small) of Micros.

Yup way to much money they should be working on the gbe not gbm there just tring to squeze as much money as they can out of the market why dont they make something new instead of reinventing the old typical nintendo this is whats making there company go down the drain hopefully the revolution will be good and the same with the evolution then they can come out on top but I have to say that right now its not looking good.

Ok first thing, if the GBA Micro is suppost to be like the Ipod Mini, then only people with too much money or are idiots will buy it. You want a reason? The Ipod Mini cost more per hard drive room for mp3s then the Ipod. Now as for the Micro, $130?! What kind of moron would pays that much for something inwhich the screen will gets scratched up. As I see it thats the plus of the SP, no scratching on the screen and you have the backlight.

Also Nintedo isnt learning the mistake Sega made. Sega stretched itself too far with hardware and so thats one mistake it made. Why have 3 three different handhelds that are in essence the same, they did this with the GB and... yeah only idiots that had a Game Boy Color went nuts for the Pocket Game Boy.[/rant]

Another thing. Nintendo said something like "The GBA has sold 27 million units, so we thought we would make a new version to enhance playability," or something to that end. That means every kid has a GBA, meaning nobody is out there that needs to buy another one.

for $130 i'd rather buy a DS for $170,

Hell, Atari did it before Sega. You'd think thet'd have learned by now...

Nintendo is probably thinking they outlived both of those companies, so nothing can happen to 'em.
