4.0 out of 5 stars Some Ups and Some Downs..., April 26, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Game Boy Advance SP Pro Gamers Kit (Video Game)

At first glimpse, one might jump to the conclusion that this is a storage case for your Game Boy Advance SP system. However, this is not the case at all.

It consists of two levels. The bottom row contains the link cable, SP space, SP cord, Headphone adapter, 2 "2-game holders," 2 screen protectors, headphones, and FM radio accessory. The upper level has two mesh pockets for the car adapter and magnifier.

The case itself is wonderful. Beautifully crafted, sturdy, as if it could plow through 18 brick walls and then some.

The magnifier is made of a cheap, lightweight plastic which has a "McDonalds Happy Meal Toy" feel. The screen lid doesn't stay up very well. Also, I find it more difficult to use the magnifier than to play without it. Although, for people with sight-problems, this is a blessing.

The relatively long car adapter does what it promises. Although, I bought a much better adapter that doesn't feel like it was given away for free at some party.

The game link cable delivers what it promises as well. Though not my top choice looks-wise, it is still an average-looking cable that is well built and doesn't have the cheap feel of the rest of the items.

The Game Boy Advance SP cord doesn't seem like it would be of much use to me... but wearing things around your neck seems to be very popular in japan. That must be the reason behind ths carrying cord, as I don't think I would be caught dead wearing a Game Boy around my neck.

The game cases come in two colors: Platinum and Cobalt. They both carry only two games, which doesn't seem like much... however, they are the only way of storing games in this little case, so choose your favorite four carefully.

The set comes with two, clear screen protectors. Above both protectors is a cheesy, obviously perforated card that has a picture of football players, and the words: "Protects Game Screen!" ...it's as if the makers thought that if they didn't put the corny little card above the protectors, we would assume we should stick them to our feet. As for the screen protectors, my first one hasn't come off yet, which is good. I just pray that the adhesive on the corners doesn't work TOO hard. ;)

The Headphone jack is what really compelled me to buy this. I've been wanting a headphone jack (since the SP is without one) since I got the actual console. It would work well with better headphones, but it's not junky like the other things in this.

The FM accessory clips on the top of the gameboy, and operates when the game boy is on. So, you can listen to your favorite tunes while playing Mario. My advice: Listen to your iPod or whatever it is that plays music for you. You can't see what station you are listening to. All there is is this little scan button that you push every time you want to find a station. In other words, you spend more time scanning than listening.

The headphones are okay... they aren't as bad as some I've seen, but they are definitely not the greatest known to man.

The most dissappointing thing about this Kit is that there is no space for other games other than the four you can store in the cases. Think of it as an at-home storage center. You can barely travel with it and who needs to travel with a game boy, four games, and a whole bunch of stuff you could do without?

Buy it for the headphone jack and screen protectors. Otherwise, it's pretty average.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well Worth It!!!!, October 15, 2003

This review is from: Game Boy Advance SP Pro Gamers Kit (Video Game)

This product is worth every cent it cost. I was expecting the case to be flimsy, but to my surprise it is very well constructed. It has the feel and durabilty of a hard side briefcase. I purchased this for my 7 year old son for our trip back to the states. If by chance he needs to open up his carry on for airport security inspection things will be easily displayed. Considering ordering another one for my daughter for the same purposes. This is perfect for anyone old enough to play GameBoy Advanced SP. As some of the other reviewers have said it truely comes with almost everything you would need to make your GBA SP expirence enjoyable. It is a perfect size for a backpack, and holds eveything nicely!!!! ... BUY IT!!!!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Gameboy Advance SP Pro GAmers Kit, November 4, 2003

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Game Boy Advance SP Pro Gamers Kit (Video Game)

This kit has the Link cable and the car adaptor. It has screen protectors, the screen magnifier AND a neck strap. It also has 2 game cases to hold your games AND the FM radio adapter WITH earphones, not to mention an ALMOST buletproof case with room for your Gameboy Advance SP. There's room for the AC charging adaptor too, IF you're careful!
