The Nintendo Micro is a teeny-tiny GBA that that’s about 2 inches wide and .7 inches deep.

Launch is slated for Q4
Silver in color for now, expect all sorts of rainbow-flavored variations.
Dimensions: 4 inches wide by 2 inches tall and 0.7 inches thick.
Weight: 2.8 ounces (80 paper clips’ worth of weight).
Processor: Same as GBA SP.
Form factor: “Gleaming shoulder and start/select buttons that literally shine”, removable and customizable face plate.
Screen: 2-inches, backlit and the “best Game Boy screen ever” with adjustable brightness controls for use indoors or outdoors.
Marketing angle: “We’re making the gorgeous Game Boy Micro for image-conscious folks who love video games, the ones who want the look of their system to be as cool as the games they play on it” according to George Harrison, Nintendo of America Sr. VP of marketing. It’s clear that they’re going after the kids who are too cool to carry around an obvious gaming device but who don’t mind carrying something that looks like the cell phone that they’re already carrying.
Accessories: built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery; supports standard headphones.
Software: the Game Boy Advance has nearly 700 titles available, all of which will be playable on the Game Boy Micro.

it should have wifi to work with the nintendo revolution
like the DS will
Posted by amnesia
dudes this is great. hope the screen is not too small when it comes down to gaming
If it did have wifi it would be awesome.
Imagine if the DS could transmit partial levels that you could play on it!

I almost said it looked like it had the same size screen as a K700, then I read the specs more carefully. So bigger than K700 but not much. I'll spare my neck and go for something with a bigger screen.

Woot, its my advance in a smaller form. I think I'll stick with the bigger, but MUCH better, PSP

New games will be developed for this but current GMA games will run as normal.
Here is a exact size comparison between the two.

ok, and gameboy pocket and gameboy color games playable as well?

Game Boy Micro to be portable media player.
A recent interview with Nintendo’s VP George Harrison suggests the company is thinking of marketing the Game Boy Micro as a portable media device by bundling it with the Play-Yan adapter — the device that lets you play MP3s or MP4 videos stored on SD cards on your Game Boy Advance SP or Nintendo DS.
