RUMOR: Nintendo is working on a new Super FX Chip for GameBoy Advance, which will improve the quality of 3D graphics on the system. This move is to remain competitive with the upcoming portable systems such as Nokia N-Gage and Sony PlayStation Portable.</div>

<div style='font: bold 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Grr...I want to buy an SP soon, but if they could possibly release ones with a new chip at any point, I'd wait.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>I think that's for the carts themselves, kinda like the FX chip they used for Star Fox on the SNES and such.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>The most logical move Nintendo could make would be to keep developers away from the PSP by making certain that the developers know their profit margins would be greater if they developed for the GBA.</div>

<div style='font: bold 9pt ; text-align: left; '>True. I knew that but it didn't click until I read your post. :P</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>All of them? Microsoft failed that when they entered the console industry even though I recall you said they would.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Yeah, I thought they'd pay through the nose for them, but all they really got were Sega and Capcom, with just a bit of Namco and Konami.....they need those guys</div>
