MANUFACTURER WARRANTY: 12 Months desertcart.com Many decried the original Game Boy Advance's reflective LCD screen and its reliance on external light sources. The Game Boy Advance SP's main feature--optional backlighting--fixes this complaint nicely, but it's the wealth of other features that makes this system so surprisingly good. At first look, you might think the SP is a sleek travel alarm clock. When closed, it's just as tall and deep as the original GBA, but only half as wide. Due to its clamshell design, the screen is always protected from everyday scratches. A small button in the center of the console turns on the backlighting element for use in low-light situations, like in a moving car. The SP comes with a well-designed power adapter that recharges a built-in battery; its prongs fold in for easier storage. Our informal tests found that it takes about four hours to fully charge (you can even play it while it's plugged in and charging), and the battery lasts about 11 hours with the backlighting constantly on--your results may vary. Using the backlighting less often will conserve battery power. With separately sold cables, you can connect the Game Boy Advance SP to other GBAs for multiplayer gaming (above) or to the Nintendo GameCube (below) to access secret levels, exchange data, or use other special features that vary from game to game. The quality of the backlighting is very good. It's bright and clear when looking directly at it, but degraded from other angles. This is only a problem for friends who are watching the screen from over your shoulder. But size, power, and affordability do not come without trade offs. There's no headphone jack here, though Nintendo promises an adapter. The system isn't very loud at its highest volume, and the sound can be turned down to socially acceptable levels. The L and R shoulder buttons are a fraction of the size they were on the GBA, and thus are harder to hit. Also, the reduced size of the SP is slightly less comfortable for adult hands than the GBA, but perhaps more comfortable for smaller hands. The cartridge port placement on the lower part of the console is fine for GBA games, since they are flush with the console body, but older Game Boy Color carts will stick out in a way that takes some getting used to. Open it up and the hinge will seek out a preferred, pre-set angle (about 150 degrees), though you can open it a bit wider or narrower for your own comfort. The hinge stands up well to lateral pressure, and over all, the SP seems just as rugged as its predecessor--which has proven to be very rugged, indeed. --Porter B.

Review: Works & Looks better than the one I had asa kid - Worked Great and was in decent shape considering this is an original GBA SP. A couple scratches, 100x better than mine looked as a kid. This one was taken care of well or hardly ever used. Might have found a better deal elsewhere, but am happy with the purchase and the fact that it was Prime delivery.
Review: Pearl Blue GBA SP AGS-101 - I recently bought a Pearl Blue GBA SP a few months ago. It arrived in a few days and it was in good condition and even included a charger. This is only one of three GBA SP's AGS-101 models with 2 brightness settings. The 3 colors are Pearl Blue, Pearl Pink, and Graphite(Dark Grey). Make sure when you buy one to ask the seller if it's the AGS-101 model and if it comes with a charger. These GBA SP's AGS-101 models are easy to find on desertcart.com and come in a wide vareity of colors and models. The GBA SP AGS 001 has only one brightness setting and are less desirable than the AGS-101 model. These consoles are made well and are durable, you can fit these in your pocket! There are people that obviously neglect their GBA SP's by dropping them on the ground, slam it shut, place them outside, and just don't take good care of their GBA's. I was fortunate to have received one from a seller whose previous owner took good care of it. The GBA SP can play GBA games, there so many great games to choose from. The GBA SP uses a lithium ion battery that charges in 2 hrs and can last up to 10hrs+ depending on the brightness setting. One downside to the GBA SP is that there's no headphone jack, but you can buy an adapter on desertcart that will work nicely. If you're looking to buy one of these, be sure to ask the seller questions. Ask them if it's the AGS-101 model, condition, do all the buttons work good, back-light works well, battery holds a charge. If the seller does not provide accurate info, look for another honest seller that will be happy to answer your questions. Don't be in a hurry to buy a GBA SP, shop around and get the best deal you can. I've noticed recently, the GBA SP's are somewhat in high demand, people want to play their old GB , GBC, and GBA games from their childhood. There are good prices on desertcart, you just have to know what you're looking for and proceed with caution.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works as intended.
*by N***N on March 10, 2013*

I got this thinking it was a replacement for the one I got for christmas. Turns out, what I got from my cousin this past christmas, was a GameBox. Read the details, and look for sites that sell that sort of stuff online. There are places that sell that kind of stuff as legitimately as possible online, so don't lose home. As for this specific product, its gold, simply gold. I love it. I have a few Game Boy Advance, and other old school games, that I play on this thing. The Game Box is great, but having the legitimate version is good too. If anything else, for reliability and durability of legitimate products that other questionable stuff just may not have. I am gonna get the Pokemon: Red rescue team game just to use on here, since the GambeBox, well, it plays that game, but can't save on it. Granted, I'm old enough to be from the gamer generations that played games like that, and left them idling/afk while we had other real life responsibilities to do, then come back and continue to play the game we were doing before responsibilies called. With that said, this, the legitimate version, works well. I just hope after hard grinding on some games, that it doesn't break down on me. I tend to be the kind of guy that works a system to its limit, just through legitimate/standard means. Like for the GameBox, on the Pokemon red version, after my Golbat evolved from a Zubat, one or two levels later, that I leveled up in the same area, during the same game play time frame of 6 hours, Golbat went into evolution stage again, and I got the "Ash:??" response when nothing happened after the initial light show before the Pokemon goes white while evolving. So, yeah, with that said, I always look for a stable, reliable, long lasting, products. I look for things that can last a long, long time, cause I intend to have things, for a long, long time. To conclude this review, I will say that the legitimate Nintendo Game Boy Advance SP, works as intended. I look forward to buying legitimate versions of games to play on it for years to come. Now to find a good price and seller on a Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team. P.S.: This is besides the point, but I thought I should include it here. The review box, it doesn't allow the upper arrow key to be reconized. I tried on other sites and it works there, so it isn't my system or keyboard. If anyone else see's this issue, about the up arrow key, not working on the review details box, please inform Amazon about this. Might be a bug they care to fix. Its a weird bug. It sometimes works, and other times, it doesn't. Please, someone look into this.
