Most versions of a hand-held.

today I finally went to pick up my new Eternal Arcadia Limited Box (the huge book-thing) at the local second hand store, was a real steal, for only 35 euros ;)

I got a pre-owned copy of Hyperdimension Neptunia for £30, and I think I've chose a REALLY silly and funny JRPG (Which is the 1st game in that genre I have got and played)

Seems like a terrible first experience of the JRPG genre.

Had a sneaky suspicion that you were going to blast me for having that game, but everyone's entitled to there own opinion I guess.

I think it's pretty much fact at this point that HDN is awful.

I had a green one too. Only had an old purple GBA before that, so can't compare it to the SP, but it was a massive improvement over the old unbacklit contraption. Screen might have been a bit smaller, I can't remember.

The games I recommend are Astro Boy, some of the Castlevanias (any but Harmony of Dissonance) or the Mario games which look really cool and crisp on the small screen. Gunstar Heroes is good for about 15 minutes as well, some interesting mode 7 stuff going on in it.
Tic Tac, sir?

I've been doing Training Mode ever since i got it. I don't even think getting a fighting stick would help.

^ I think if I were to get a fighting stick, I would give SF4 another chance. I've played it before, but I have trouble with the thumbstick. That and fighting games aren't my forte.

Uhh... I haven't bought any games lately. There are a few that I want. Portal 2 for starters. I also need to start saving up for 3DS games in June. RE Mercenaries and Zelda OoT. :)
