 I have joined the devout followers of Nintendo this past weekend with my purchase of a Gameboy Advance SP. I went ahead and snagged Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls. One cartridge with two classics on it, sounds like a winner.
The actual catalyst for getting the Gameboy was Scott's suggestion that Brenda and I both get one each so that he can justify the purchase of Zelda: Four Swords Adventure for the Gamecube. Here's how the action breaks down: it's basically multiplayer, co-op Zelda, in a regular Zelda-ish game with the four of you running around on the screen. Each person plugs their Gameboy into the Gamecube and uses it as a controller. If ever you go somewhere in the game that would be impossible to display due to the fact that it has to also display the location of your companions, such as going into a house or a cave, your display will then switch to your Gameboy's display. Also, when you talk to most people, the conversations you have with them will be displayed on your Gameboy's display as to not distract the other players who don't give a shit what that person is saying (conversations that actually move the plot along are generally shown on the television).
Anyway, we played that bitch for hours and I can't wait for another session of multiplayer Zelda/beer drinkery. Good times indeed.
On a side note, while I was getting the Gameboy, Scott pointed me in the direction of a used copy of XIII (for the PC) on sale at EB Games for a paltry four bucks (*swipe*). I have to say, it's pretty effin' good, with the exception of the "checkpoint" style savegame system. It blows. A lot.
