Why is the GameBoy Advance SP even better now?First of all, the GameBoy Advance SP has built-in screen lighting. This means you can now play GameBoys in the dark too!
What are the benefits of the rechargeable lithium-ion battery of the GBA SP?Additionally, the GBA SP operates on a built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery instead of two AA batteries. This allows you to play GameBoys for at least 10 hours without needing to recharge. Turning off the screen lighting can extend the battery life up to 18 hours. The charging time of the GBA SP is approximately 3 hours. Fortunately, you can also charge the GBA SP while playing, so you'll never be stuck with an empty GBA SP!
What makes the folding case of the GameBoy Advance SP unique?Thirdly, the GameBoy Advance SP comes in a new case. A folding case, to be precise! The GBA SP is designed with a foldable console, just like the DS. This offers three advantages. Firstly, the folding system protects the screen of the GBA SP when not in use. Secondly, it makes it even easier to carry around. When folded, the size of the GBA SP is only 8.2 x 8.5 x 2.4 cm. Lastly, you can create the perfect viewing angle by folding the GBA SP more or less, allowing you to see the screen better while playing.
How does the button layout of the GBA SP differ from the GBA?The button layout of the GBA SP has also been changed compared to that of the GBA. This allows you to use all your fingers at the same time.
Which new colors have been released for the GameBoy Advance SP?Finally, the Nintendo GameBoy Advance SP has introduced new, stylish colors compared to the Nintendo GameBoy Advance. The
GBA was available in colors such as Indigo, Glacier, Platinum, Pink, and Arctic. The GBA SP has been released in the following colors: Cobalt Blue, Tribal, Ice Blue, Fire Red, Graphite, Pink, Silver, Red Groudon, and Blue Kyogre. Additionally, Mario, NES Classic, and Zelda Limited Editions have been released for the GBA SP.
Can you still play old GameBoy games on the GameBoy Advance SP?So many handy innovations! Luckily, you don't have to part ways with your
old GameBoy,
GameBoy Color, and
GameBoy Advance games, as you can still play them on the GameBoy Advance SP. The GBA SP does not have its own line of games. You can also still use a
GameCube GameBoy Advance cable with the GBA SP to connect it to the GameCube.
