I know 3rd graders that can type better than you... sorry dude, don't meen to make you feel stupid, but my friend has three younger brothers. And they're all 9th grade or lower, they can all write eprfectly. Junior high / high school is for complicated english writing. Learning of literature and the latin roots of words today. Not your average post on a forum stuff.
lol you like to brag don't you?? :o
Are you fucking stupid or something? there's not one thing in there that praises myself. I give my friends little brothers complimets (I guess, I'll give you that one) But even then I'm not mentionaing anything about them that's above average or normal. I lay out a basic over view of grammer school. What in the hell makes you think I'm bragging?

The only way this should have been perceived by anyone as braggin ,is if they're never had a day of school in their life, and I'm praising how men and millions of other kids world wide got this great education, but they didn't. But OBVIOUSLY seeing as how you're talking on a forum, you went to school because you can read and write; Therefore, you should have learned all of this stuff yourself unless you're learning it now, and then in which case you still learn it giving you the same opertunity as us, and not making you a kid who's never been to shool before. What a horribly stupid remark that was.

And even worse, why bring that subject back up, the dude ALREADY got flamed, pretty bad at that.

since people like to complain about mere spectulations; about what they think something will be like, here's some hands-on impressions from people who have actually touched a GBA SP, concerning the shoulder buttons and comfort:

http://www.planetgamecube.com/impressio ... ile&id=545

"One of my major concerns was how the new smaller shoulder buttons would feel. Since I have larger hands than the normal child, my index fingers would get cramped quite a bit while playing a lot of shoulder button intensive games... With the smaller layout, I can hit the buttons with the inside of my index finger instead of the tip. Even people with huge hands shouldn’t be uncomfortable. I’ve only had about 20-30 minutes with the GBA SP, and without further prolonged testing, I can’t say my hands won’t get cramped. For now, I think it’s a step in the right direction."

http://pocket.ign.com/articles/382/382062p1.html

"Like a mobile phone, the Game Boy Advance SP's face buttons and D-pad are recessed, very thin and "clicky." But even though the buttons feel different, they're just as responsive as the classic buttons and D-pad on the original Game Boy Advance system. But what's surprising is how comfortable the shoulder buttons are. In pictures, the L and R buttons look awkwardly small. But the way they're positioned on the system, they're extremely usable and responsive. Players can wrap their index fingers all the way behind the unit and press the buttons below the first or second knuckle, or push them in with their fingertips. Both ways feel just right. And even though the system returns to the vertical orientation of past Game Boy systems, I believe the Game Boy Advance SP's button layout and smaller size actually makes the system more comfortable to hold and play than the wider, more spread out Game Boy Advance original."

Why thanks KPC, now I've read the opinions of a few people, I've decided to throw away my GBA and spend £70 on an SP!

Why, if x people like the new GBA, then surely everyone will!

Whatever, I'm sure loads of people love the new GBA, but it was just an opinion. Whether they were speculation or not, I doubt finding out a few people like it is gonna make me jump up and down and buy one.

eh... no. I'm not saying that everyone should just throw away what little life savings they have and buy a GBA SP; since it apparently solves world hunger.

It's just that a lot of people say, well, this thing sucks because it doesn't look comfortable. And then that gets into a rant about how crappy Nintendo is.

And then it turns out they were just going on opinions that don't even have basis in facts.

That, to me, is just stupid.

I was saying it looks uncomfortable and etc. I'm hardly a Nintendo fanboy, but I never 'ranted' about 'how crappy Nintendo is'.

But anyhoo, shove a GBA:SP in my hands and I might love the way it feels, shout out load in praise to Nintendo and still not buy one. Because I already have a GBA. Sure, if you don't have a GBA and want to shell out more for a light and smaller design, buy it, but I was just saying upgrading from a GBA is a bit of a waste of money...

...Or not if you have money to throw around. I don't, I'm just a 16 year old who's unable to work due to injury and is skint. But I'm sure to many people an SP is a drop in the ocean, and lucky them.

I never even said that this thing 'sucks', I just said it isn't worth it. You're just putting words in my mouth.

And about the avatar, I can't be bothered to change it until I figure out what holiday is next and make an avatar for it. But with the amount of stuff I got to do at the moment it looks like there'll still be a New Years Panda in June. :P

i wasn't referring to you with my last two posts, but if you somehow felt insulted, i'm sorry, but that's your perogative, not mine.

I did think it was intended towards me, but I hardly believe that insulted is the word... :P
