[flipmode]

Just wondering which is the best one to buy? :rolleyes: My mate has a normal one no Backlight, etc, he says its ace Just wondering which is best before i buy B)

 

[LOOM]

I'd buy 166mhz BLU if I were in your shoes there's nothing like playing civilization in bet before you fall asleep The BLU+ issue isn't real issue anymore, just opensnes doesn't work but yoyofr said he'll fix it soon...

 

[LOOM]

Sorry bed :rolleyes:

 

[flipmode]

Should i go for guaranteed 166mhz version? B)

 

[lubidog]

Blu, 166. End of story!!!

 

[flipmode]

Cheers!

if you can afford a blu 166 thats what I'd go for (I only have an NLU at the moment, which kinda sucks. I want a backlight)

Go for the 166 MHz BLU. This way you will be done. Don't bother with FLUs or NLUs.

Yeah, Nova's deadhard!!!

I'd agree again with the 166 MHz BLU, im still on a FLU at the moment but that does the job fine!

If you can get a cheap FLU, dont hesitate. The difference between the FLU and the BLU isn;t quite as large as many seem to think, especially when you're doing what you're supposed to, and concentrating on the game!

I guess blu can't be played in the sun...
In that area, the reflective TFTs of the NLU and FLU are better.

I disagree! I've been playing mine outside all week through extremely varying weather!
Get the angle right, and you can see it almost as clearly as if you were using the backlight.

Thats a big 10-4
Ive never had trouble with it out side, just have to some times sit in weired positions.

If you play outside alot you could always get a spare NLU. I bet NLUs are dirt cheap these days. Use the BLU inside, and NLU outside.

@ Axeman I disagree 100% The difference in color saturation, contrast, eveness in lighting and dust factor is HUGE. I have had all versions of the GP32 and the BLU is far better when using the lights.

Most excellent
I have (so sadly) not reveived my BLU yet; but thought the BLU would be like the psp and ds and my powebook..
How can it be then? is it some voluntary technology?

 

[bast525]

I play my BLU outside all the time... much easier to see than the f'ing PSP is I'll tell you that!!!

Only downside to being outside is that the yellow tint of the screen cover is clearly visible and sort of annoying.

 

[Huxley]

Unless you have a glass screen

NLU is much better for outside play, but that doesn't outweigh the benefits of a nice BLU. Once you've played BLU you'll find it difficult to go back.
