You most probaly fit into the minority here... I, and many people, hated the Gamegear simply because it gobbled up something like 6 batteries in around 4-6 hours... That was just ridiculous.

And I don't believe that releasing a modified version of a previous model is a waste of time. The internal developers (and 3rd party too) are not affected by this at all. They make the software, not the hardware, and so if they keep releasing ports and such, it's not because time and money was spent at 'another' department in Nintendo, and it DEFINATELY doesn't affect 3rd party developers, who also seem to be lavishing the GBA with countless ports (though I'm not complainint, since some of them are damn good ).
