    Nice, I really want one of these things but I'm useless at checking back on the planetvb site. Looks like the first batch of 50 have all been preordered

    Great, now I have to buy another one!
    Only difference is the gamesave battery, not a massive difference for me, as I have most of the european and us releases already, battery and all.
    The only things i use the Flashboy for is the occasional game of Space Invaders or 3D Tetris!

    Apart from being able to play the more expensive games, I also want to try out the homebrew stuff that's trickling out, though they tend to use password features up until now due to the lack of a flashcart with a battery.

    Actually, looks like the data is overwritten every time you save something on this one, so it's not a particularly useful feature
