Both those will work, but you need a converter since the Micro uses a proprietary smaller EXT port.

Great, what a relief... Let's hope those converters are easy to buy, cheap, and small.

Well this is the official one at rip-off price of course, but there'll be third party ones for cheap. This is my prediction.

Requires the Game Boy Micro Communication Cable (OXY-008).

What?? Does that mean I need to buy a new link cable AND the converter?

You only need the converter if you want to connect to older GBA's. If you're just connecting to other micros then you only need the new link cable. Or you could get the wireless adapter.

Dude totally!! How sweet would that be? I've been meaning to buy one of those old school NES controller belt buckles at Gamestop, but an actual playable handheld? I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

Yeah this is what we need, a bunch of nerds whose pants fall down every time they want to play Fire Emblem. Sign me up.

I really want to see exactly how sharp and bright it is. Apparently IGN says its brighter than the DS screen.

If I remember right, it was significantly brighter at max setting. I wonder if they held back from putting this screen technology in the DS because they couldn't match the clarity on the touchscreen?

Price is the only thing holding the Micro back. $100 is just too much for a GBA now, at any size. Otherwise, it's a sensible little machine to have with you.

Is it possible to use a GBA-GCN Link Cable with the Micro?

For Crystal Chronicles and Four Swords, y'know?

I believe that question has already been answered a few posts above.

There should also be an official press release at the Nintendo Australia website. Apparently Aussies are getting cheap puppies and new DS colours as well!

I don't think the Micro will connect with the GC, according to the NCL site.
