gameboy advance etc will work but becareful with ps2
games as most uk stations are not capable of dealing with ntsc (the us tv standard) as it uses 535 lines and our system uses 625 lines.
you need to get the machine modified to play the games.also tv has to be able to use mutli format fortunatly most modern tvs can |

Sorry Danny, but that's right. I thought you just meant the Gameboy SP. The Gameboy has always been region-coding free. All other consoles aren't however. |

If you are thinking about getting the GBA SP its worth taking a look at the GP32 too. |

Advance games work fine, I bought V-rally advance in London and it played fine in my GBA. PS2 (bastards) doesn't work though, my dad bought me WRC in London last year, and it doesn't work. Sucks, I want WRC II but it won't be over here until the fall!! Anybody wanna sell me their Euro PS2...cheap... |
