The '''Game Boy Advance SP''' (Game Boy Advance Special) is an upgraded version of the original GBA first released in 2003. The serial code was AGS-001. It featured a new design, with a clamshell style and front-lit screen. It also came with a rechargeable battery for the first time. However, it lacks the headphone jack of the original Game Boy Advance model. Later, Nintendo also released back-lit versions colored Pearl Blue and Pearl Pink. This had the serial code AGS-101 unlike the former Gameboy Advance SP. The Game Boy Advance SP sold 43.55 million units worldwide. This system also had backwards compatibility with the Game Boy and the Game Boy Color while the palette options are still the same from the Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance. There is a special version of the SP that looked like a Nintendo Entertainment System. There was also another version of the SP released in 2005 with an even brighter front-lit screen.{{refneeded}} It was also the last handheld to have backwards compatibility with the Game Boy and Game Boy Color games. | The '''Game Boy Advance SP''' (Game Boy Advance Special) is an upgraded version of the original GBA first released in 2003.

The '''Game Boy Player''' was an add-on accessory for the [[Nintendo GameCube]] which allowed players to play Game Boy Advance games on their televisions and thus functioned similarly to the [[Super Game Boy]]. A few games had a rumble feature which took effect only when they were played with a standard GameCube controller. Later on, [[Nintendo]] added a smaller version of the rumble feature to the front of the [[Nintendo DS]]. | |||
