    These things are sooooo cooool. I mean, there's like a million different designs/skins/face plates for it and it's so sleek and portable. Also GBA games are dirt cheap, I saw Final Fantasy 6 (GBA) for a buck at a Mom and Pop game store.

    I was wondering how rare Micros have become, can I still pretty much find them at any Gamestop?

    Also what are some good GBA games, I could only come up with Golden Sun, Metal Slug Advanced, Fire Emblem, Castlevania and Pokemon. I really don't know what else I want.

    rayman was cool, metroid prime was awesome, and there were a plethora of NES mario games available as well.

    Be sure to pick up:

    - Astro Boy: The Omega Factor (Portable GOTY '04, pretty much)
    - Gunstar Super Heroes
    - Metroid Fusion
    - Metroid: Zero Mission
    - Final Fantasy V Advance (best portable port of a FF game you can find)
    - Both Super Robot Taisen: Original Generation games (beats the pants off of FFTA as far as SRPGs go; good luck finding them)

    As for buying a micro at Gamestop, I doubt you could. I've never known Gamestop to hold a huge used/outdated section, so you would most likely be better off going to a used store or e-bay. I'm not a huge fan of the micro myself. I like my pokemon r/b/y and g/s/c way too much to give up the backwards compatibility.

    As for games
    Why have the Super Mario Advanced games not been mentioned?
    Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga was a fun, lighthearted RPG.
    Kirby:Nightmare in Dreamland was also fun, if a bit on the easy side.
    Harvest Moon:Friends of Mineral Town, and MFoMT were both good. I will never understand how a game about FARMING can get so addicting, but it is.
    LoZ games. Reliable(if a bit predictable) series there.
    Everything else I can think of has been stated.
