Customer Review: Good Game Too Short
I bought This Game Because It Looked Dead Good. The Reason That I Was Dissapointed With The Game Is That If I Was Going To Folk Out ?20 For A Game I Want It To Last A Little Longer Than 1 Hour. This Was overall Dissapointing
Customer Review: good, good and very good
This games really is good. I love playing it. it has 30 different missions and they are all good. The first couple of missions or a bit boring but after that I loved it!!! Overall I really good game!!!

This Nintendo comes with a host of new features that set it apart from all other portable video game consoles:- Better screen quality (brightness and definition) than all other consoles currently available.- More compact (2/3 as large) and lighter (20% lighter) than the original DS Lite.- Two back-lit screens brightness can be adjusted over 4 levels to adapt to any lighting and reduce energy consumption.- A microphone located at the centre of the console, remaining battery power visible whether the console is open or closed.- A stylus that is easier to access (in a slot located on the side of the console) and now with a more comfortable grip (1 cm wider and 1 mm larger in circumference).- The ?Start? and ?Select? buttons have been relocated to make them easier to access.- A removable GBA cover protects the Nintendo cartridge slot.

Customer Review: Cool
This is easy to use, light to carry and the fully charged battery lasts for around 16 hours when set on low screen brightness. The two screens are really handy as it saves flipping back and forth between modes as in some GBA games or adds extra elements in others. The touch screen is fun and adds an extra dimension to game-play over the gameboy advance. The wi-fi connectivity allows game play with friends and connection to the internet to play with other Nintendo gamers. There is a calendar, a clock and an alarm. It has built in stereo speakers and a microphone socket. Overall I think it is excellent value for money (these days) and great fun to use.
Customer Review: AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(by Jiordan 12) This is amazing. At first i ownned the original ds and then the ds lite came out and then i sold my original ds.

I soo reccomend this and the red and turqoise to any one who wants one.

Customer Review: Not good enough
I bought my PS3 and all the bits to get my GT5 Prologue working on my 1080p tv and was disappointed…

The PS3 was fine playing a Blu-Ray movie, but even the opening credits on Gran Turismo we just breaking up all the time. I did a lot of reading and the whole debate about how a $10 cable will do the same as a $70 on etc… well I ditched this cable for a Monster 1000hdmi and guess what.. now I have flawless audio and display in 1080p with not even a hint of a problem.

If you are having a similar problem, you will have to make up your own mind. I don’t think the build quality of this cable is that good and given the movies work and game didn’t, I am more like to believe that it just wasn’t capable bandwidth wise to do the job.
Customer Review: Do NOT buy!
I purchased a new HD 1080 TV and a playstation 3 a couple of months ago. I was using a Belkin HDMI cable I purchased for both cable tv and the PS3, switching back and forth whenever I wanted to use the other device. I decided to purchase this cable since the price was so low (compared to the 45 dollars for the Belkin) and since it had good reviews. I received the cable and plugged it in right away. To be as nice as I can, the quality was terrible. It was grainy and had a lot of static in the picture. I switched between the Belkin and this cable to make sure it wasn’t a poor port or something else but everything I tried led back to this cable. DO not buy this. It is not worth the price and you will end up with an inferior product and a terrible picture. Luckily amazon let me return the cable however I am now without a HDMI cable for even longer!

Pitfall : The Mayan Adventure
Pitfall Harry is back. Well, sort of. He’s been kidnapped, and this time his son is exploring and adventuring in his stead. Pitfall is fondly remembered as one of the first real hits on the Atari 2600 game system way back in the early 80s; Harry then reappeared in new adventures on the PC, PlayStation and Super Nintendo, among others. Pitfall: The Mayan Adventure is a direct port of these games, and you’ll find it enhanced slightly, but mostly the same as previous versions.

The game’s a 2-D side-scrolling adventure in which Harry Jr. is on a mission to recover artefacts, gold, treasure, his dad and other goodies from the South American jungle. There must have been an explosion in a major cache somewhere, because this stuff is sitting in trees, on the ground and in subterranean locations. Harry and Harry Jr likely mugged Indiana Jones because they’re wearing his outfit and his whip. They also find lots of snakes and go on a mine car ride in this game. Hmm.

But the lack of originality doesn’t matter that much because the gameplay is pretty good overall. Harry Jr must run and jump over quicksand and the gaping maws of crocodiles, swing on vines, climb ropes, and fight chattering skeletons and chittering monkey foes in his quest. He also has to solve a few puzzles along the way.

While the graphics are enhanced in 32-bit finery for the Game Boy Advance screen, the details and colours are muddy, making it hard to appreciate the lush environments. Seeing where you’re going and what you’re grabbing can be difficult, even with perfect lighting. Also, the game suffers from repetition and a lack of inspiration. There’s only so much Harry Jr can do, and you’ll find him doing it a lot, over and over. Still, Pitfall: The Mayan Adventure is a worthwhile romp on the handheld even if it is outshone a little by other, cleaner-looking launch titles. –Andrew S Bub

Customer Review: Dan the man and his magic review
Its back yet again!This title has been many peoples favourite over the years and hear it is again on the gba.The difference this time is that you are not actually harry.This time your his son.The reason for this is that he has been kidnapped and you have to rescue him.It is a good game but can be a bit tricky and frustrating.The sound effects are good and youll be humming the tunes long after your gba’s off.The graphics are average and this is a very skillfull,challenging game for all you dedicated gamers out there.My opinion is to buy this game.Thanks 4 reading.DAN

Customer Review: Adventure in the palm of your hand
This is one of the best games i have ever played. It reminds me of Tomb Raider. It is the same feeling when i first played Tomb Raider on the PC. The puzzles are intuitive and never dull. This game is pushing the technology of the GBA to good use. I think that it needs more umph in the action department but it will keep you thinking for the whole journey to work.

Customer Review: Wake up, people!
What is wrong with the world? Treasure, the undisputed masters of 2D, spend three years developing an enhanced remake of one of their very best shoot-'em-ups, and nobody's talking about it. It's next to impossible to find in the shops. It's on a format most people have consigned to the dustiest shelf in the spare room. You've got to ask yourself - am I any kind of gamer at all? Because if you are, then it's your duty not to let this beautifully crafted labour of love slip into obscurity. It's a spectacular blast through levels that rarely take more than a couple of minutes each. One moment you'll be jumping and shooting in a traditional platform style; the next, you'll be standing on a spaceship, picking off missiles in a 3D flight sort of thing; or piloting a helicopter; or trying to kick a giant teddy bear under the wheels of a van… Every level is completely different, and packed with more humour and imagination than you'll find in the entire Top 10 games chart at any given time. If that's important to you - and it ought to be - then break out your GBA (or DS) and enjoy the greatest, most hardcore handheld shooter ever devised.

Following a strong introduction sequence, it’s quickly down to the action in the Game Boy Advance version of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. For unlike the Game Boy Color version, the game kicks off with Harry already at Hogwarts, and with some fast learning to do. You step into Harry’s shoes, initially moving from classroom to classroom learning new skills and spells, before indulging in activities such as sneaking out of your dormitory at night, fighting off trolls and having a quick game of Quidditch too. You certainly can’t accuse the developers of trying to short-change the fans, as it seems they’ve tried to cram as much of the film into the game.

Unfortunately, that’s also at the root of the game’s main problem. While it tries to cover all angles of the plot, it does mean that some segments of the game lack a little polish, and aren’t always that enjoyable. Sure, there’s some great fun to be had with the game, and the quality of the graphics means players will instantly relate it to the film. It’s just that perhaps a little more development time could have paid dividends. Nonetheless, fans of both the film and books are likely to get some enjoyment out of the game, even if arguably it’s inferior to the Game Boy Color version. And if you’re not overwhelmed by Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, you can wager on one certainty–this isn’t the last we’ve seen of Mr Potter on the Game Boy Advance… –Simon Brew

Customer Review: Excellent and Challenging!
When I ordered this game from Amazon, I thought it was going to be an okay average games. Too wrong I was: you begin the came by attending your first defence against the dark arts lesson and then once your spell is learnt you do a tricky challenge. Over 10 amazing challenges requiring alot of brainpower. Includes everything a gameboy game requires: skill, patience and determination. It took me a month to get past the prefects but well worth the wait! The hardest challenge is the last challenge, fighting Voldemort. I won’t reveal any more secrets but definitely a MUST PLAY game!
