Last week we posted the first GBA accessories pictures. Now here's juice about the new peripherals.

We posted a truckload of large pics of import GBA accessories last week. Yet, out side of the Hori items, there was a new company called Nichigan that released some new products that we didn't have any details on. Now we do....

Nichigan, a Japanese company specializing in peripherals for video games, has recently released five new convenient GBA add-ons for their "GBA Accessory Series."

-Finger Con-Stick:

Easily improve your score and GBA's operationally by just attaching this small add-on onto the D-pad. The package includes three sticks, each with a different height, so you can choose the best one for each game. There's a 12mm -- whose joystick-like feeling is great for shooting games -- a 7mm -- good for RPGs, since it helps players' fingers fight off weariness - and a 3mm one -- perfect for fighting games since it enables smoother input.

-Sun Filter:

This reliable filter, recommended by Tokyo Shiryoku Kaifuku Center (Tokyo Eyesight Recovery Center), absorbs reflected light and UV rays to help relieve eyestrain when it is applied to a GBA screen. Sun Filter lets users kill two birds with one stone as it also protects the handheld's most important part - the LCD.

-Light Plus:

This is really helpful when you play GBA in poorly lit places. The light automatically turns on and illuminates the screen when it's connected to GBA's external expansion port. GBA supplies the power so no extra electric source is needed -- this light is also compliant with Game Boy Color.

-Game Sound MAX:

This special headphone for GBA - which comes equipped with PCM stereo sound -- is nice for those finicky audiophiles who what to enjoy GBA's expressive sounds anywhere. The headphones, with their petite 1.2 m cord, allows users to enjoy listening to clear audio without disturbing others.

-Protection Sheet:

Although GBA is available in three different colors, this sheet is for those who want to go the extra mile to be cool. The sheets, available in four types/eight kinds, will help your egoistic dream come true. Apply it to front of GBA's body and show your colors, as well as protect GBA from nicks and stains.
