I assume it'll be avaliable in flame.

Nintendo has announced that the Game Boy Advance SP will become avaliable in China on October 27th. The company had already made the Game Boy Advance avaliable in the country this June, and Nintendo is expanding its relationship with iQue by releasing the SP. The GBA SP will be available in 21 different locations in China, and the price will vary depending on the area of the country.

I find that comment highly offensive and racist.

Nintendo releasing different SP colours is very offensive on the Internet.

I thought joke was pretty intelligent myself. How is it racist? It is the burning capital of the world. If you can even take offense to that fact, you have problems.

I took the joke as Flame being Red, Red being communist. Take it as you will though

Red is for happiness and vitality in Chinese culture in general, not communism. Though it would be a popular color there I think despite the green after image.
