Game Boy Micro Announced

The Nintendo press conference this afternoon revealed the new Game Boy Advanced format: the Game boy Micro. The new handheld will play all GBA titles, and is only slightly larger than an iPod. From the article: "The sporty, silver metal Game Boy Micro measures a mere 4 inches wide, 2 inches tall and 0.7 inches deep, allowing it to sit comfortably alongside today's hippest technological gadgets. It weighs an astonishing 2.8 ounces, or about the weight of 80 paper clips. Yet Game Boy Micro has the same processing power and plays the same games as Game Boy Advance SP models, complete with standard face controls and gleaming shoulder and Start/Select buttons that literally shine."

It's small enough that a slight static buildup will keep it affixed to most rough surfaces.

On release of the PSOne:

Why is sony re-re-releasing the Playstation? They have a brand new console out now and should be concentrating on it. Not bashing the Playstation though its great, but seriously how stupid does Sony think the public is?

When will they get this right? 80 paperclips? What is that in Library of Congress Index Cards?
