Fortunately, you can also charge the GBA SP while playing, so you'll never be stuck with an empty GBA SP!
What makes the folding case of the GameBoy Advance SP unique?
Thirdly, the GameBoy Advance SP comes in a new case. A folding case, to be precise! The GBA SP is designed with a foldable console, just like the DS. This offers three advantages. Firstly, the folding system protects the screen of the GBA SP when not in use. Secondly, it makes it even easier to carry around. When folded, the size of the GBA SP is only 8.2 x 8.5 x 2.4 cm. Lastly, you can create the perfect viewing angle by folding the GBA SP more or less, allowing you to see the screen better while playing.
How does the button layout of the GBA SP differ from the GBA?

Can you still play old GameBoy games on the GameBoy Advance SP?
So many handy innovations! Luckily, you don't have to part ways with your old GameBoy, GameBoy Color, and GameBoy Advance games, as you can still play them on the GameBoy Advance SP.
