It doesn't take batteries. It's rechargable, and lasts for 10 hour durations. That's probably about the same I got on the normal GBA. Very damned nice. You also have to ask yourself: How much did you pay for batteries for the GBA already? If you're like me you've probably spent a lot more than what this new little doolie costs. Plus, it's backlit.
BTW, it truly is a break through, because when the GBA was released people were like "This is a 32-bit??". Nintendo seems to like these compact shenanagins nowadays--even the Gamecube is really small.
Oh well.
