Its about time Nintendo learned from Palm and started making handhelds backlit and rechargeable. I got a Gamecube recently for when I was camping out for Eagles playoff tickets (GO BIRDS!!!) and I was very PISSED to find out that it wasn't backlit. Hell, its hard to see when there are normal house lights on it, much less street lights on. I was sitting there like a doofus with a flashlight in the crick of my neck trying to play Fire Pro 2.

I'm pretty sure that there are back lit screens for the Cube on the market...

You have no idea how uncomfortable that looks.
EDIT: Holy mother-@#$3ing monkey Hitler it's real.:eek:

They've got it everywhere. IGN, Gamespot, PGC.. It's real. Even the fact Nintendo's forcing us to purchase additionally a headphone jack so we can plug in headphones...eh. All I can say is, I was beleiving this for the longest time during the megaton age.
So... HAH! No more megaton! I'm so relieved...

This IS the megaton? Oookay, what a dissapointment, although I wan't expecting much in the first place. This new GBA does look a bit uncomfortable, but oh well. I'm sure it won't be too bad.

Goes to show you, we'll never understand the japanese. Though they make good food and consoles, I'll never understand them.

I wasn't expecting a megaton anymore, but if this is supposed to be it, it's not very megatonish
Although I like the looks of it more than the normal GBA, because I couldn't stand GBC's screen with the crummy lighting... It sucked so much ass...
Yep...
I don't see why people should be dissapointed with the "megaton"... think of it this way:
There is no megaton and this isn't supposed to be megaton...

What's Megaton?
I don't know, never did know, never will know. I just want Metroid Prime and Zelda dammit!

I think Megaton has been proven to be a hoax by now. Even I bought into it (curse you, CBS Marketwatch!).
This GBA SP isn't bad. I just wonder how comfortable it's going to be to play.
Also, Nintendo is releasing it primarily in platinum in the U.S. They seem to like using silver colored square things over here, don't they...
