    When I was younger, I had lost my GBA SP and was absolutely *devastated.* It was the only game console I had at the time and played the crap out of it. My parents surprised me and managed to get me a replacement for my birthday that year. ... then a few months later, I'm cleaning out my closet and found the GBA I "lost" in the pocket of a hoodie. My parents were not happy, to say the least. I did end up donating that one to a children's hospital, though, so I say that's a net positive.

    I had the OG Purple GBA when I was 6 and I lost it in Connecticut. Unfortunately I never found it and never got a replacement. What's funny about it though to me, is I had interest in both the Wii and DS, however because I was young and thus, I was also stupid, I thought that the Nintendo's Wii, but mostly DS Systems, could NEVER live up to the GBA I had once had, that System was the best! I did not realize until many years later that Nintendo made the GBA as well... Remember how I said I was young and stupid? Well, i'm no longer as young!

    Releasing a successor after only 3 years lifespan even though the Gameboy Advance actually was a really big success with selling 80 million units within that short time honestly is a really strange and a bit arrogant move but it worked out for Nintendo the DS sold astronomically.

    I don't think Nintendo was really looking at the DS as a successor to the GBA. The current situation at the time was basically in the middle of the cellphone/PDA revolution and with the PSP being announced, I'm sure Nintendo was definitely concerned about this and didn't want to particularly kill off their cash cow, the GBA. The DS just happened to eventually overtake the GBA as Nintendo's main handheld. Once Nintendo saw that the DS was selling like gangbusters they kinda just stopped focusing on the GBA and probably the Gameboy line as a whole. It's not really a foreign concept and they kind of did it with the Switch as well. If the Switch had failed to gain traction, there probably would have been a new dedicated handheld from Nintendo to replace the 3DS but the Switch just kind of worked for Nintendo.

    @@merceze to my knowledge Sega had no handheld game console that was directly competing with the GBA. Game gear production stopped in 97 while the nomad was 99. On nec side the PC engine gt stopped production in 94. You might consider the wonderswan color as a contemporary of the GBA as it launched only a year prior but it never left Japan domestic market. The neo Geo pocket color was competing with GBC and died when the GBA launched.

    A part of me wishes I had kept all my handhelds, I was a very generous kid so I always gifted my old gameboys to friends who couldn’t afford them when I got the upgraded version until the DS lite that could play GBA games (which I have and still pull out to play on occasion!) By a stroke of luck my sister still had hers so I do have a Gameboy Color and original Advanced, but the SP only lives on as a vague memory in my mind.

    I just got back into playing Game Boy after a long time of like, not playing it. I have a Game Boy Color (Pokemon Gold themed) that I'd love to play but I need a worm light for.... And I have my GBA SP 101. It's not my GBA from when I was a kid, that got stolen years ago. But someone gave me one. It was scratched up and well-used. I ended up buying a new Zelda themed shell for it and doing a nice alcohol clean of the buttons. Thing works like new, and looks like it. I love it. I ended up also buying a couple flash carts. The EZ Flash Omega for GBA games, and the EZ Flash Junior for Game Boy and Game Boy Color games. They're great. They let you put roms onto an SD card, and play the roms as real games on a real console. They all work, play, and save just like the real thing. I've spent about $130 on my GBA (that I got for free, mind you) at this point, and I don't regret it one bit. Though I still gotta spend $20-25 on a new 900mAh battery, and I gotta find one of those headphone adaptors. I'm currently playing through Pokemon Crystal, and Castlevania Circle of the Moon, along with a mix of Pokemon Pinball 1 and 2.
