"Game Boy Advance, SP, and Micro" sounds pretty weird as a page title. Does anyone mind if I move it to Game Boy Advance? --It's-a me, Smeedel. / Talk - Contribs - You 16:22, 15 September 2006 (EDT)

Do it. It's a better title. Paper Jorge ( Talk·Contributions·) Paper Jorge was here at... 18:12, 15 September 2006 (EDT)

Heh, that was me who put it that way, I don't know what I was thinking at the time :P The way it is now is much better. SaltyTalk! 21:30, 24 April 2007 (EDT)

GBA SP Pic[edit]

I think that a better picture should be found, since that one is backwards (as the caption states). Maybe a non-backwards one. 13-Volt 17:59, 18 December 2006 (EST)

There we go. I added a much better one. 3dhammer.gif 3D, {{{1}}} 3dhammer.gif

e-Reader SP[edit]

Hi! can the Game Boy Advance SP be used with the e-reader just like the regular Game Boy Advance? Star.gif SuperMarioSuperFanPapermario.gif

Slogan[edit]

What's with the slogan of the GBA? Who are you? I am thinking you should change the slogan. -ChAnDuD

"Who are you?" is Nintendo's official slogan for the GBA. We did not choose it, we are reporting it as it is. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 20:55, 11 February 2011 (EST)
No it wasn't, that slogan was used for the GCN at the very least. I don't recall GBA commercials featuring the slogan, but it has been about two decades now so it's possible they existed and I've forgotten them. - 198.210.115.233 00:44, December 3, 2022 (EST)
Might be issue of memory recall. However, some "Who Are You?" were print ads for the GBA iirc, such as the print ad for Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga.[1] Icon showing how many lives Mario has left. From Super Mario 64 DS. It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 15:05, December 4, 2022 (EST)

Discontinuation[edit]

For discontinued, we need to be more specific on when each of the consoles were discontinued, and when the last game for that platform went out of print: 2003 (original model), 2005 (Game Boy Advance SP), 2007 (Micro), and 2008 (games). The Micro was discontinued in either 2006 or 2007 since it wasn't well received and didn't sell as well as the original and SP iterations. --PrincessDaisyFanatic3883 03:39, 19 March 2012 (EDT)

Glucoboy[edit]

An accessory for the gba was made called the Glucoboy. This accessory was made for people with diabetes and they could test their blood glucose levels and get points to spend on minigames
The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bobster (talk).

This seems to be an unofficial accessory, while we generally only list official ones. Lucina costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 23:20, December 22, 2020 (EST)

Startup sound[edit]

The GBA's startup sound is a remixed version of the one from the Super Game Boy. Was it worth mentioning in the trivia section? --LucianoTheWindowsFan (talk) 12:03, April 12, 2021 (EDT)
