3.0 out of 5 stars Product Description, December 31, 2005

It seemed that everyone wanted to know what the starter kit contained and the product description wasn't very clear, so here's what the kit contains: spare battery and miniature phillips screwdriver, 2 safe screens, neck strap, 2 game safes (each holds 2 games), screen magnifier, docking station for recharging, zippered travel case with strap. There are no earphones, which seemed to be the concern in other reviews. There are also no instructions on how any of the items work, so you're on your own to figure out how the neck strap attaches (which I have yet to tackle), how the screen magnifier fits the gameboy (not completely obvious, but there is a picture on the box and you can sort it out from that, although there is no clue how to remove it), or how the safe screen will stay attached (which it doesn't seem to do although the box says it will - "quick & easy stick-on protection"). I hope this helps others looking at this item. None of the items feels substantial and may not stand up to regular wear and tear, and I have no idea whether any of the items will be used (I really wanted earphones, too!), but my son was happy to get the gift and has put on the magnifier so I suppose it was a worthwhile gift.

I don't actually own this product, but I noticed a few reviewers lamenting the lack of headphones in the package. Whether or not this constitutes false advertising is one thing, but if you take a good look at your Game Boy Advance SP, you'll notice that there is no headphone jack. While there is a headphone jack on the original GBA and the new GB Micro, this product was intended specifically for the GBA SP. In which case, including headphones would be a bit superfluous.

2.0 out of 5 stars Headphones are proprietary on the gameboy advanced sp., August 7, 2007

This case really doesn't have anything good enough to spend any money on. A dock is really redundant as every sp comes with a its own charger. Game cases are a maybe but ultimately, i find, that they just make it more difficult to carry around games because i have to store the cases away. Most importantly this set lacks a multi-link cable. Which is essential to any starter kit in my opinion.
