true, but looking at the EDGB, there really isnt that much empty space on the PCB, there seems to be little room for minituarization, krikkz does not seem to be a fan of using both sides of the PCB, there is nothing on the backside of the board.
I assume he saves a bunch of money on the pick and place for the PCB components (no need to turn the PCB around during manufacturing) by using a single side.
RTC is pretty special considering no other flashcart (still in production) has it.
It is an alternative though. Really it comes down to whether the user wants to play on an official console or not. Revo K101 and the ED GBA are about the same price, though I would ALWAYS go with the ED GBA (because Revo is junk IMO)
I have to agree with this. Though the REVO is capable, it is incredibly cheap feeling compared to an actual GBA. This makes the Everdrive pretty much the best option for playing on original hardware. My micro SD EZFlash of course I can use in a gba but again, it is shoddy as far as craftsmanship goes. The Everdrive feels and functions with, incredible quality. This will petty much be the definitive flash card for GBA until Krikzz himself makes another one.
I guess it depends on your tastes. I prefer the revo k 101 to the regular GBA because of the Backlit display. And I prefer it to the AGS-101 SP because of the shape, I never was a fan of the SP clamshell design, I always cramp up on it.
That said, a regular GBA and the SP have the huge advantage of being able to play GB/GBC games and flash carts as well, so I can see why one might go for the slightly more expensive but very polished EDGBA.
Either way, both are good ways to enjoy our old school GBA games.

M3 Perfect discontinued way too early, and goes for eBay ransom levels online.
EZ4 demands on ROM patching and has completely broken .cht support. And truthfully, their stock ROM patcher/manager client is miserably bad. Anything much newer was made to only really work with the DS and DS lite, which after my experience, not really expecting any of them to last at all. Also, no RTC and no Rumble support. Sadly, even with improved patchers like ezGBA, there are absolutely a lot of games that just flat out will not work once patched to run on the EZ 4. While the new firmware for the EZ 4 has been great to finally have enough storage for every game, I haven't been able to get Mario Kart GBA working on it since.
