The Game Boy Micro is a handheld game console developed and marketed by Nintendo. It was released in Japan on September 13, 2005, and in other regions later that year. A miniaturized version of the Game Boy Advance, it was the last in the Game Boy line. Unlike other Game Boy Advance models, the Micro lacks backward compatibility for original Game Boy and Game Boy Color games. It failed to meet Nintendo's sales expectations, having sold about 2.4 million units worldwide.

Details from sources

en.wikipedia: Australian colours matched Europe except green, which was replaced by red. Nintendo AU press release says the non-silver colours were each released through specific retailers but names neither colours nor retailers. The press release counts five launch colours while en.wikipedia lists four; the fifth colour is unconfirmed.
