I would vote for no, because i cannot afford it in my actual economic status, but there's only an option that says "no, but i have a gb or such", and that's no my truth, i won't buy it and i don't have any handheld, so...i won't vote

EDIT: fixed layout (bg cut)

But reading the post made to accompany the vote, on the other hand, would have.

WOW!


Now, as I said, I don't see the sense in spending more money to get a less-capable handheld that I'm gonna lose even easier. Speaking of which, where is my GBA..? *searches*

Edit: Typo.

You still don't get the same visual effect you do with the polls.
Like, I can tell that most people won't buy it because they have other systems to play GBA on. A simple 'No' wouldn't have showed me that.

That's why people can post in a poll, Snika. So you can see why they vote for what they do.

Relax, you freakin' soap opera stars.

If you don't care about the damn thing, then don't vote!

Anyways... Back on subject...
My friend tryed one out in a game store and said the screen was awsome, but the system was too small for his hands. I just don't think it is pratical to have something that small...

You're missing the "No, I don't care about GBA games" option. Which would've been solved with a simple Yes/No poll.

I have a GBA, and that's good enough. I don't want a smaller GBA that can't even play GBC games.

GBA > GBAM

No. It's simply not worth it.

DS > GBAM

Why would I need a Micro when my DS does the same thing and is cooler? And there should be a "hell no" kind of option... All the answers are either yes, no because you already have a DS/SP/GBA, or yes but not right now.

No.

This poll smells of fanboy too. Where's the option for "No, I don't care about this stupid thing?"

You missed the "Don't give a toss for any Nintendo handhelds because I own a PSP" option.

THis seems a bit silly to be honest, I mean I have big hands and fat fingers, it's going to get lost somewhere in there.

No, I will not get a GB micro, I would rather get a DS when I get some money over. Couldn't find that answer in the poll though . Actually, my first reaction on the GB micro was "That's just stupid! Who'll want to buy that?". Then again, I'd like to see myself as a veteran gamer and the GB micro wasn't made for veteran gamers.

I own both a DS and SP, but I'm still considering getting a Gameboy Micro, depending on how much money I have left after getting the other things I want.

Reason being is that when I first got an SP, I bought a black one (as they were the only ones Zellers had in stock). A couple weeks into playing games on it, I noticed a dead pixel in the screen. I thought that I'd rather not keep that one, in case more problems were to crop up, so I went back to Zellers to exchange it for a new one. After making quite a fuss about not being able to see the problem, the clerk finally relented and told me that either I could wait for them to get more, as they were all out from a sale, or I could get my money back. I chose the latter option, then went out to EB Games, since I figured they'd have some.

They did, and I walked out of that store with a red one. Upon getting to Wendy's so my brother could get something, I noticed the same problem was present in the SP I'd just purchased. We went back to EB Games, so I could exchange it for another one, then finally got home. I still have that SP right now, and it's got small bits of stuff inside the screen, and then a few pixels in the lower left corner that are always blue, except when it's turned off. That's what I get for buying preowned things, I guess

Anyways, as previously stated, whether I get a Gameboy Micro or not is entirely dependent on what I'm left with after getting a few things, which are listed in my profile. Included in that list (but not actually put in) is a Revolution, so chances are I won't have enough money

As things stand right now, I'm going to have to choose "Eh... Not sure yet." in the poll, and that's about how I feel on a whole about it as well

I also have a GBA SP, and a DS.

Althought they're both at home now, and technically the DS isn't mine. But I probably buy a own one later, and I should remember to bring the GBA with me back to the dorm.

And in my family, we also have another GBA SP, and a regulary GBA. And we also have a Gameboy player, but it's at my sisters dorm. And I also have a orginal Gameboy somewhere. And did I mention that I have a super gameboy? And a transfer pack, if that counts...

So... i'm not going to get Micro. Althought I can understand that people are gonna buy it.

No, I won´t buy it. I have a GBA SP and a DS and both can play GBA games.

I´m not really a fanboy but I do like Nintendo.

If I have money to spare.. I'll get one, else not. (I only play GVA games novadays, on my DS, and as I don't have a SP, but two GBAs... hmmm.. Okay, I'll admit, I'm a Nintendo Fangirl ^^)
