This special red/gold colored Gameboy Boy Micro Famicom Version has been released in Japan, coinciding with the 20th anniversary of the creation of the first Nintendo Entertainment system in 2005. The back of this console is printed with the company's mascot, Mario's profile surrounded by a wreath of laurels. To commemorate this event, the shell of the system is playfully designed to mimic the appearance of the original Famicom console. This has also been the very first Game Boy Micro™ limited edition released and has become a very valuable collector's item.
The GB Micro supports all Game Boy Advance™ games no matter which release version it is and displays the graphics with a screen that is far superior to its predecessors.
What a Bargain!! This has got to be the best price I have seen for this system to date. The box itself has a great design and I can't believe how small and slick this system is.
One thing that I didn't figure out (although I should have) is that it comes with a JP/US Charger.
Also grab a screen protecter if you can because you don't want that tiny screen to be marked and scratched.

A great little console. Seriously, I love this console. It's small, it's sleek and stylish with a great retro flare. The inside box is amazing, and when I showed both console and the box to my friends, they were impressed.

This should not have failed The Micro is a great piece of hardware, if I had the money back when it launch I would've bough it. It's definately worth a buy especially at 70$. It feels good in your hands. The screen size isn't problem if that's what some are thinking. Nintendo Marketed the Micro well but it was too much when it launched.

Once hesitant, now an instant buy! I was hesitant to buy a GB micro for two years, but at 70 dollars, I was sold! It's clear that price was the reason the GB micro failed to meet expectations, as every other aspect is perfect.

It's very beautiful! This game boy has the most beautiful color. I have a GBA and a DS but GBM Famicom version is the most beautiful and handheld.
