5.0 out of 5 stars THIS IS THE BEST!!!, June 20, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: WormCam (Video Game)

I bought this with my christmas money and i was really excited. When i first got it out to take my pictures they were not very good. Then i realized what i was doing wrong which a lot of people have not realized. In the light settings section you are supposed to set it to the lighting around you.If its in a dim area, you would set it to "dim" to get a good picture rather than setting it to "bright". Only if you are in a bright area would set it "bright" to get a good picture. You would also do the same thing for "low light" and "normal"

If you know about this information, than you will be able to take good pictures like i am able to.

A Kid's Review

= Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: WormCam (Video Game)

This is a cheap camera. It doesn't take pictures at all! Trust, I got the camera, and it is HORRIBLE! Please, if you really want to get a gameboy camera , do not get this! You know on the cover it has a High Res. picture of a dog on it, that is COMPLETLEY FAKE!!!! When you take a picture on the camera, all it you see is either black, white, or a very unviewable picture! And I am telling the true, true truth. But there other gameboy cameras avalible, like the original gameboy camera, that you can find here on amazon. The only thing is that the orignal gameboy camera takes black'n'white pictures. The only thing I want to tell you is, DO NOT GET THIS GBA CAM AT ALL!!!!

"lmommy" (Sterling Heights, MI USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: WormCam (Video Game)

I bought the worm cam for my daughter, who was begging for a camera, because I thought it would be both a fun accessory for her game boy advance and satisfy her desire to take photos, but I was wrong. Being eight years old, she does enjoy taking photos with her gameboy - the concept is neat - but the photos are of the worst possible quality. The novelty of this product is not enough to keep it from being a big disappointment.

YES, we are aware that there is an adjustment for the brightness level, but that only corrects the problem a very small bit. If you don't use the correct setting, you get completely black (too dark) or completely white (too bright) image. If you do use the correct setting, you still only get a sepia toned, painfully grainy, barely recognizable image.

I have a fairly fast PC, so downloading isn't so bad, but for people with a slow PC the image upload process would be horrible. Don't waste your money on this junk, spend a few extra bucks for a real digital camera even if this is for a kid. The prices on digital cameras have gone down considerably, and you can now get one that takes much better photos than this thing, for around $30.00.
