Nintendo Axes Game Boy Advance Support

22.04.2011
With so many other Nintendo handhelds on the market, it had to happen eventually. We learned today that Nintendo is finally discontinuing the DS Lite, effectively ending GBA support for their handheld consoles.

According to a leaked GameStop memo, "Nintendo DS Lite systems have been discontinued and stores will no longer be replenished on this product."

As the last system to offer Game Boy Advance backwards compatibility, we're sad to see it go. But the GBA's library of classic remakes and wonderful original titles will live on in the yard sales and bargain bins of the world.

...at least until Nintendo tries to sell them to us again through the inevitable "Virtual GBA store."
