Jeez! Those Japanese are CRAZY! Now if only GCs could fly off the shelves like that... Nintendo would again rule the console world like they did in the past.


*G*

Uh I think that "Japs" is actually sort of a racial slur. Hate to nitpick, but...

Jeez! Those Japanese are CRAZY!

Why are they crazy?

 

[Grall]

Does everyone have to nitpick my wording instead of replying to the actual *content*!

I aint editing the fuckin post again.

Who said anything about editing? I'm just curious to why they're 'crazy' for buying up the SP...

the crazy part would be standing hours in a line to get one...

I don't see why... Handhelds are a big market in Japan and there's always interest over new one (especially if it's a Nintendo model), and lines for some 'in-demand' new product are hardly out of the ordinary... Hell I'm just happy I got my white Valentine's day edition model with FFTA.

personally I'd much rather have one of these! http://www.gbax.com/gp32review.html

i'm not saying that the new GBA is bad or that you shouldnt get one (maybe i'll get one for myself too), but i personally think its just silly to wait a day or so in a line just for a toy. (or a movie)

I'm definately with you on that one!

Meh... I've got a GP32... While it does have much more CPU than the AGB, there ain't squat for it software wise, and you'd be better off with a PocketPC for the most part...

......what about all the Emu's and old software? If it can emulate a pcengine then I'm there!
-not criticising, but am curiopus as I've seen GP32 emu's for the NES, PCE, Speccy and Monkey Island series etc.... Are they just not up to scratch, or am I missing something?
