  • I still dont have an SP and the new price is just pulling at me..... must... wait....

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

<div style='font: 10pt Tahoma; text-align: left; '>actually, what am i thinking. For only 70 bucks more i can get the next gen one that can play GBA games. Thank goodness the DS is backward compatible.</div>

<div style='font: bold 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I was going to reply and tell you to just wait and get a DS for $150 and get to play everything. I am going to see if I can maybe sell my SP to a friend for $50 and put it towards a DS. :)</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Yeah, but there's only one thing: if you have old GB or GBC games, they won't play on the DS. Also, if you ever decide to get Four Swords Adventures or Crystal Chronicles, you can't use the DS. But if you don't care about those, I'd get the DS as well</div>

<div style='font: bold 9pt ; text-align: left; '>GB and GBC games won't play on the DS? I didn't know that. Why the heck not if it's got a GBA slot?</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Hmmm, I always thought it could play all games playable for GBA which include GB and GBC games. Also, Four Swords and Crystal Chronicles are being ported to the DS; which I believe is the best system for them.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Extra emulation not necessary? Maybe they want to leave that exclusive to the GBA SP to keep it popular?</div>
