A must have for any avid chromatic user. Great battery life get about 5 to 6 hours of play maybe more if I didn't have the brightness up too high. Well packed and the box it comes in can be used for cartridge storage if the kids throw out there boxes.

The only drawback the Chromatic had at launch was the reliance on AA batteries. While that fit with the original GBC's design and functionality, not being able to charge/recharge the system was frustrating. This rechargeable core solves that problem perfectly. While I wish it were available at launch, even as an optional accessory, it's here now, and that's what matters.
This is an essential item for any Chromatic owner!
