Unofficial reply from a Nintendo Rep.

The following was sent to me by a reader of the site (Lee). It is an unofficial story, addressing the lightness/darkness of the GBA's screen as complained about by many owners.

"FYI.....

Living just blocks from Nintendo Hdqtrs. USA, yesterday I happened to talk to a Nintendo rep. about the GBA's dark screen. She admitted that this was a problem and that big N has received 1000's of complaints.

She stated that big N is going to be selling the GBAs soon with a "lighter" screen. She blamed the problem of the screen on the supplier. She didn't have specific dates, but said the new units would ship without fanfare. I assume that they will ship before christmas after current stocks and manufacturing slots are depleted.

Remember, this is unofficial, but I was glad to see Nintendo finally admit they had a problem. I was also glad they bought my GBA back from me when I complained.

Take care,
-Lee "
Sounds very interesting! I suppose we'll find out eventually if there's any truth to this news. Thanks a lot for the info Lee!
