The original GBA gave me headaches all the time. I bought the SP though and the backlighting made the headaches stop.

I've played for five hours straight, without headaches. I DO have to mute the volume to do that though. For some reason, I don't like the volume.

I have, especially in low light with the Advance and first SP, though the SP Lite's backlight eased it a lot

I get headaches when I play on the bus, because of all the movement and sudden brakes. I think it is similar to reading in a car. Also, I get a headache when I am playing and the light reflect on the screen. That is the worse for me.
