Just picked up a JAP Gameboy Advance today!!! 
It is absolutley AWESOME!!!
I was quite sceptical about the quality of the graphics.....that was until I saw it in the flesh!!
I have always thought the PC Engine GT was the best handheld available, the normal GB was OK but the graphics were pants. This GB Advance has graphics never seen before on a handheld......just imagine graphics that are a cross between Super Nintendo/playstation/N64 and you just about have it. Together with the excellent graphics you also have widescreen and mega sound.
I bought it with Mario Advance and F-Zero Advance, both games are as you would expect.....brilliant!!!
The processor is a 32bit Risc jobby and the carts can hold upto 256Mbits or 32Mbytes. Thats the equivalent of 4 cartridges of Super Mario 64 on the N64, and that was a HUGE game!! There is a GT game out and I hope to get me hands on that next week!!! Just think Gran Tourismo in ya pocket!!!!!
Well they have definatley got the pocket market tied up.....wonder if they can do the same with the GameCube.....I hope so!!!

£230, including the two games which wasn't bad!!
The GBA will be £100 and the two games £40 each, when they are officially released in 3-4 months. A good thing about the GBA (same as the present GameBoy), is that them and the games are region free, so I won't have any problems with the UK games!!!
