Let’s just make a quick note of this. My Game Boy Advance was purchased on 123102. Fine. One week and one day later version is announced, for release in March. And it’s actually good-looking. This is actually what I was picturing when I was thinking about what I’d really want a Game Boy to be. So I am kind of sad but kind of not. I don’t think Cheap Oakleys I could’ve held out for it anyway, because, as I mentioned below, Yoshi’s Island has kept me from going insane, and I’ve decided to blame this whole ordeal on Buy Rite rather than my lack of foresight. So anyway, if anyone is wondering, the GBASP (that’s not a very good acronym) would make an excellent gift (for me), especially if the US of A eventually gets it in black.
In other news, according to the Planet Gamecube release list, I guess that Grand Theft Auto 3 was originally slated to be available on the Cube, but, to my dismay, it’s apparently been cancelled. That makes me sad. Unlike the cancellation of Banjo-Threeie; that makes me laugh. Apparently, this is because of Rare’s sale to Microsoft, so this crap for crap game will be available to all you lucky Xbox owners out there.
