  A pretty extensive review can be found here: Danny Choo's blog

  Upon reading the system specs, all I can say is WTF.....

  ..... there's no GBA slot!

  Removing the GBA slot is sheer stupidity....

  This means that backwards compatibility with GBA games is finally no more....

  Heck, this also means that games with GBA-slot peripherals (like Guitar Hero) will be obsolete.
