Yeah, I like my GBA too. Though I never heard of this e-reader thing---I'll have to check that out. My taste in games is very old-fashioned. When Defender came out back in the day, I found it way too complicated with all those different weapons & stuff. Pac-Man, Space Invaders, Q*Bert, and Frogger were more my style. So while some people have blasted the GBA as a portable Super NES, I think that's a good thing and I enjoy the retreads. (I admit, if Sony ever came out with a portable that would play PS games, I'd probably get it. I mean a real handheld portable, not the PS One thing.) In fact, the only Advance game I've gotten so far is the Super Mario World one. But since upgrading (I had an original Gameboy from back in the early 90s), I got Super Breakout, Frogger, and Tomb Raider (still fun, tho not as much so as the "real" version) in their Gameboy Color incarnations.

I think I am going for Final Fantasy Tactics when it comes out.

I need to get out my Virtual Boy and play it again.. it's packed up in the basement!!
