For someone who isn't bothered about it being pink, you seem to be really concerned about whether it is pink or not :P
heh, just curious really. I was actually thinking of getting a black faceplate as the pink & black combo would look rather nice :D
The Micro itself will either be black or silver. Judging from the fact you said pink, it is probably the silver one.
No, it is entirely pink.

I bought one for my ex last year when they were £40.
Its not as 'pink' as it looks on the packaging though, its more of a light magenta and very metallic looking.
I never heard of such a thing. I've only seen the black, silver, and retro ones.

Eh, I don't see the point. You can get the GBA SP for less. It's got a bigger screen, plays GB/GBC games (which the Micro can't do), works with a wider range of accessories, and is still damn small. The Micro just doesn't make any sense to me.

We didn't get the retro one, we got silver, black, metallic green, metallic blue and metallic pink instead.

They're actually cheaper than SPs here (if you can even find an SP).
Also the 'improved backlit' SPs never got released here either.

The micro is pretty sweet, even if its a bit too small for my big western grown up mans hands to play comfortably for very long.

the small screen on the micro is really crisp and vibrant. I really liked playing games on a micro.

Well look at that, it is pink. Wow, if you added a black faceplate to that, it wouldn't look half bad, though I still wouldn't want to carry it around. :lol:

That sucks. The improved backlit SP's are amazing. I loved the Micro until I got ahold of one of the improved SP's, and now I never use my Micro.
