I actually own every GB model from DMG-001 up through N3DS XL (only missing N2DS).
I have bigger hands, and remember loving the SP as a kid, but today it's fucking awful and cramps my hands after like no time at all. I think SP comes out to be the best, but I don't use it much because no backlight. Believe it or not, the Micro actually is pretty forgiving on my hands and I quite like using it. You don't have to cramp using it, your fingers just kinda, hang over.

People are always hating on the micro for being tiny, but I was hating on the SP for that very same reason when that thing was released.

Briefly /pol/ became obsessed with the fact that s oy has plant estrogen in it (which is not chemically related to human estrogen), and decided it was the thing turning men into women for some reason. They ran with this and had to ask what was the "man" vegetable because the entire board runs on false equivalencies. Onions were decided on. They invaded every other board to call everything they didn't like s oy, so the mods wordfiltered it to the vegetable they had idealized, onions, and now everyone has italian male pattern baldness and back hair because of onions replacing 50% of words on the website at the time.

Phytoestrogens and xenoestrogens act on human oestrogen receptors and hence mimic the effects of human oestrodiol. Dietary levels of phytoestrogens can be sufficient to alleviate symptoms of menopause (fulfilling the role of HRT, and runoff of phyto- and/or xenoestrogens into the ocean can partially or completely feminise male fish living near the runoff site.

I like the color for how versatile it is, the form factor is literally perfect too. When it comes to GBA my vote goes to the SP, I love the clicky buttons and d-pad, makes each press unambiguous, no more accidentally pressing diagonal instead of down, and clamshell designs are goat overall.

This is true. Drinking such milk has been linked to increased serum oestrone and progesterone concentrations, and decreased LH, FSG and testosterone in men, as well as increased urine concentrations of oestrone, oestradiol, oestriol and pregnanediol.
There's also a link to affecting ovulation in women, and some scientists have hypothesised that it could lead to earlier puberty in girls, and potentially perturbed puberty in boys for those that are drinking milk with increased oestrogen levels.

I got a replacement shell from funnyplaying today instead of HHL because alot of people here told me so. but the shoulder buttons have a completely different approach to the spring to push it back up and i feel like its not nearly strong enough. the fitment is also really bad, i havent put a motherboard in yet but just closing the two halves with the side pieces and shoulder buttons makes them nearly unusable. they are super stiff and barely move in either direction as if they are partially stuck. anyone else have any experience with this? the shell looks and feels very nice otherwise, so im kinda bummed about the shoulder buttons not fitting well

The Game Boy Light is by far the most based Game Boy. The soulful indiglo screen is also less likely to be swapped out for a chinkshit panel by some rabid zoomer. So while they might be less common, the percentage of intact ones you come across is higher compared to other Game Boys.
