I saw ads for it last week while I was out there, it's ok looking, but not something I'm going to rush out and buy. If I didn't already have one I might get it for the "uniqueness" factor, but I'll pass.
Although I did like the "guy gets a branding at a tattoo parlor while all these tough biker guys wince" commercial for it though. :)

when I saw that for some strange reason all I can think of was...it's the goldberg sp.

When I read the title that's pretty much what I imagined. Looks decent on silver cars, but kinda dumb for an SP. I guess someone will like it though.

There was some interesting material on that site, but the "attractive, rebellious, spiritual" stuff makes me laugh http://www.digitpress.com/forum/images/smiles/Llol.gif
If there's a sign that "buy this and be cool" marketing is dumb, there you have it.
The thing doesn't look ugly so much as just foolish.

I agree! LOL
How about some (colored) clear SP's or F-Zero GX themed SP's that mimic the ship colors and markings from the F-Zero GX

Another one? So glad its not released here too.
Whats next? A GBA colored by a 3 year old?
Just wanted to mention that site, although kinda slow was cool looking.

It's more of this false meaning people find in mysterious symbols and saying stupid shit like they're "spiritual, but not religious." Just more small-talk babble for the pretentious 20-something set. You can see the same thing in the kanji that decorates numerous cars and skin of young people, or these symbols that supposedly "mean something." The Explosion said it best: "I'm so sick, sick, sick, sick, sick of modern art."

I think this beats the Onyx/Platinum LE system for "worst idea for an LE yet"
:o
Curious, has anyone given thought to the 2 LE SP systems that the Pokemon Center NYC offers?

Hahaha!
Well, I'm gonna be in Australia in a few weeks, so maybe I'll be able to pick one up (or not, since I need to save money).
That actually doesn't look bad. It's obvious they just slapped on some decals (or something similar) but if it sells GBAs, that's up to them. Yeah, I guess the same can be said of the Tribal SP as well :P

sepultura was good until they got that crazy idea that they were actually from some kind of tribe or something.
