Who would've thought the GBA was so powerful?

The video, while not DVD quality is actually better than just watching it on TV (unless you own a high-end TV). Very impressive for the GBA's small screen.

The sound, is again, not DVD quality, but the music is outstanding regardless (hearing the GBA blast out the main theme song is very titillating!), and the voices are the highest quality you'll ever hear from a cartridge.

For those of you wondering, yes you can fast forward, rewind, pause, select and skip chapters, and even control the brightness. There's also a button lock feature so that nothing accidentally presses the buttons while you watch the movie. Very convenient.

Oddly though, while you need no special accessories to watch it on your GBA/GBA SP system (you just put it in and watch it like you would put in and play any cartridge game) you can't use the GBA Player accessory for the Gamecube to watch it; you've gotta use the GBA/GBA SP. I was tempted to take a star away for this, but it seems to be a feature of all GBA Video products, and it does a good enough job on the GBA so I'll go easy on it.

This is the first installment of the Sonic X show, and contains the first two episodes. It chronicles how Sonic and co. arrive in a parallel universe. Unlike Sonic-themed shows of the past, this one is true to its videogame roots, and features the well known and loved Sonic cast and locales... although some don't show up until later on. The series gets off to a slow, yet still entertaining and action packed beginning.

Parents, if your child like Sonic stuff and has a GBA, you can't go wrong here. Sonic fans, you owe it to yourself to get this. This is a fun, innovative, easy-to-use, and inexpensive way to watch a great show anywhere. Highly recommended to all Sonic fans, and still recommended to anyone who likes a great show or wants to see what the GBA is capable of.

I got this just yeaterday and it rocks! There are times in fast movement[remember, this is sonic we're talking about] where there is pixelation, but the quality is overall good. This works really well with the GBA SP. Before using this, some advice. Get headphones. The speakers on the GBA don't really work that well for this good of cartoon. With headphones, it sounds almost like the original. Get this one now! :)

One day my friend came over and he had a Gamboy Advance Video. I found it rather interesting so I decided I would by one with my own money. When I got to the store, I went to the section where the had Gameboy Advance Video. The second I saw Sonic X I knew i would get it. Over a weak I watched it loads of times. When you put in the cartridge it comes up to a menu where you which episode you want to watch. It has really good sound and it looks almost exactly as it does on tv (exept it is in wide screen of course). I give Sonic X volume 1 5 out of 5 stars. Too bad I can't give it 10. Gameboy Advance Video goes great with GBA headphones too.

I would have to say that this GBA video is probably the best that I have seen, I have three others. It plays crisper, plus the audio and video seem to sync up better and not fall out of line with eachother as the video plays. I would recommend this video to people who have a GBA/DS and love Sonic games, and videos, on the go.

This thing is so cool! I love Sonic X and now you can see the first 2 episodes on your gameboy advance! If you don't watch Sonic X, then try it! It's on at 10:00 am every saturday on the Fox Box (I don't watch any other Fox Box show except Sonic X)you especially should try it if you're a SegaSonic fan(i don't know anything about the comic characters or cartoon characters like Sally, Bunnie, etc, and i don't care!!!!!!!!) The only bad thing is Knuckles' voice is messed up, and they went off his personality, they acted like Sonic was his worst enemy, and it was overall strange!! Otherwise a great show!

Well, I bought the Sponge Bob Square Pants GBA Videos and thought that it was pretty good quality for video on a GBA, but you HAVE to check out this Sonic X GBA Video. The video looks a lot better, no kidding. I'm not sure if that's because this Sonic X video was more carefully made or what. The sound is about the same as the other GBA videos I've tried but it's very acceptable. This Sonic X video has the full opening song, but if you want it in high quality sound I recommend you get the DVD which is coming out in a month or so. Overall I am very happy with this GBA video. Sonic X is a cool show and very fun to be able to watch wherever I go.

This was my first Gameboy Advance video I purchased. There are only two episodes on it and the Sonic X DVDs are much more interesting and impressive. I am a big Sonic fan and this Gameboy Advance video is not worth the money. The sound and color quality is very poor. I would definitely recommend purchasing Sonic X DVDs instead of this.

This thing is awesome. It's a great thing to get if you're short on money, because it's cheaper than the usual games. Overall this video is really cool, and everyone who's a total Sonic fan should get one.

Sonic x is not on dvd and video any more now you can watch on gameboy this rocks.can they hurry up with 2 for gameboy.sonic fan 1

I thought it was a great game! I realyy liked it, but its graphics could have been a bit better. In the first episode on it for Sam Speed his mouth didn't move while he was talking when the angle was of Sonics shoes. Some of the first views of Eggman were kinda choppy. But other than that it was great.
