Nintendo to Upgrade GBA!

    Nintendo plans to upgrade the Game Boy Advance in Japan, giving it a brighter screen and contrast control.  Although the screen still will not be backlit for cost and battery power reasons, at least it should be easier to see the screen now, as the screens dimness is the largest complaint of GBA owners.  There is no word on whether the new GBA will be coming to the US yet, but when we receive word, we will report it here!
