Again i want to stress the fact that it is GBA vs. PSP in terms of portable consoles. And GBA has a HUGE library of amazing games. GBA offers way more than just Mario (and by the way Mario is way more fun than most of the PSP games out now anyway) And i do agree PSP is a better media device, but GBA is not designed to be a media device (although there is a tv tuner a third party company made for it). The GBA and especially the GBA micro is way more portable. They are smaller and don't need memory cards. They fit easily into your pocket for on the go gaming. Battery life is very long which is key since when your using a portable device, you normally don't have an outlet handy. GBA is better built for portable gaming and has better games. I know i keep trying to push aside the Nintendo DS but thats because its not a portable. It is portable but is not Nintendo's portable system. Don't get me wrong tho, i love the DS. Gameplay on the DS is truly revolutionary and is way more interesting than the same gameplay the video game world has been experiance for the past 20 years.
