Nintendo Australia Releases Limited Emerald SP
« on: June 09, 2005, 03:41:46 AM »
Perfect for that incredibly dull trip down the Yellow Brick Road.

Not to be outdone by Nintendo of Japan's recently quiet announcement of a Red Nintendo DS, Nintendo Australia has quietly revealed that they will be releasing a limited edition Game Boy Advance SP to coincide with the release of Pokemon Emerald for Game Boy Advance.    

   

 A few department store catalogues for this week have also been advertising this special Game Boy Advance.  The pack includes an Emerald Green Game Boy Advance SP, a battery charger, and a copy of Pokemon Emerald for Game Boy Advance.  

 Artwork for the system's box can be found by clicking here.

It's got a duck bill, you moron!

I like how NAL decide to focus on GBA the instant DS comes out and sells a boat load.

You like that? I hate that! I hate YOU! And I hate NAL. And this lousy green GBA. And the way they are rolling out the red carpet just because Pokemon got the obligatory milking semi sequel. Hate life too.

Sounds like whining RABicle.

Thats a pretty rad color, wish it was on my DS though.
It may be simple, but it ain't easy.

Yeah, I agree - the colour itself is pretty spiffy.  It's a shame it's not tarted up with an embossed Pokemon or something similar, though.

Pokemon is so 1997, Kosmina. Don't make me drag you into the new millenium

Wasn't there already a green SP for Pokemon Leaf Green?

That was green.  This is emerald.
Why must all things be so bright? Why can things not appear only in hues of brown! I am so serious about this! Dull colors are the future! The next generation! I will never accept a world with such bright colors! It is far too childish! I will rage against your cheery palette with my last breath!

It's not shiny so it's not emerald.

It looked pretty shiny to me when I saw a kid playing with one just outside Big W at the QV yesterday.
