An Aussie geek stuck in Texas

After the Astros win I swung by the Barnes & Noble on Holcombe to see if they had the Ruby on Rails book that I wanted in stock but they didn’t so I wandered over to the oh so convenient Game Stop that has an entrance within B&N, picked up a couple of GBA games (Super Ghouls & Ghosts and Metroid Zero), along with Metroid Prime on Gamecube (Used for 5 bucks, I had it back in Australia but not over here) and well just couldn’t resist the urge to get a Gameboy Micro.

So far I am pretty impressed, the screen is really bright and has a nice resolution, it doesn’t feel small at all in my hands and reminds me a lot of the old single screen game & watches but slightly smaller. The only negative so far is that the shoulder buttons are a little hard to press as pressing the corner doesn’t seem to click the button so you have to wrap your index fingers right around to press them.

Once it is charged I’ll put it through it’s paces and also use it throughout the week then let y’all know what I think.
