Also ... Nintendo has unveiled yet another new Game Boy System.  It's called the Game Boy Micro.  Its new console would be out in 2006, with downloadable access to 20 years' worth of popular games!

The device measures four inches by two inches by 0.7 inch, with a silver casing and removable face plates. Those dimensions are about the same as cell phones like the Nokia 3120.  

The screen of the Micro will have adjustable brightness levels; a frequent complaint with past Game Boys was that the screen was not bright enough. It will play all the same games as the current Game Boy Advance SP. Nintendo did not set a price for the Micro.   Full Story
