An artist from Famitsu has drawn up a conception sketch of the Game Boy Advance. Check it out!

If you haven't seen it yet, IGN Pocket put up an artist's from Famitsu's conception of the GBA, and it is one crazy looking hand held. Complete with a camera and microphone on top, the things looks really cool, but not very practical. When I showed this picture to my friend, he said the GBA is going to be the most fun he's ever had playing with himself. At which point I laughed at him and called him a liar.
