Gameboy micro?

Ok.. So this is kind of odd. Or rather, unexpected I should say.
Nintendo have added another wacky and zany (but undoubtedly cute) addition to their gaming arsenal, releasing the GameBoy micro, a 4 x 2" gaming console, almost smaller than many packs of gum.

Nintendo's ideal lately seems to be focussing not on the technologically whiz bang, such as improved performance, but rather, it seems to be focussing on gameplay, different ways of gaming, and new experiences, of which they hope their new console, the Nintendo "Revolution" will deliver.
The micro looks remniscent of the Game & Watch actually. But as for new and revolutionary experiences, it looks quite average, I think this is more of a fashion accessory than anything else. (Not that I'm complaining, it sure does look lickable..)
Maybe this year really is the year of mini and micro?
