Default Nintendo has hidden messages in their GBA's!!!

If you own a clear blue GBA aka Glacier , take a look on the inside of the battery cover and hold it up to a mirror, or just look at it. It says Game Boy Backwards. another secret is if you put a GBA cartridge in the system,and hold A,B,Select and start when the GBA logo comes on the screen. the word Nintendo will dissapear from the bottom of the screen hit A or B for an old Mario sound from the SNES era.(The second part works with any GBA)

I don't know about the Game Boy backwards thing but the disappearing Nintendo is for people playing multi-player games with only one cartridge. It stops the GBA from starting until the game is loaded onto all GBAs... or something like that.


And now that I think about it, the backwards GameBoy was probeling just labeling.

The gameboy logo thing is actually carved in the battery cover, and then the warning label is put over it...not really impressive

Police: Well, was this done through advertising or something like that?

ah, I was hoping they'd be messages telling you to take a crap on the salad bar at Wendy's. But no, it's just "Game Boy" backwards. How boring...

Yeah, I have to agree that these "secrets" were pretty disappointing. Oh well.
