The GameBoy Micro does not exist to me. And I don;t see the huge deal with classifying consoles as Retro either. When I think of Retro I think of A: The NES or B: The creators of Metroid Prime not the GBA.

Wait? Retro Studios? What about them (sarcasm)? I almost forgot they're called Retro. I can't wait to see their next game.

According to the Mods around here anything that isnt current generation is retro. So anything from Gamecube era back is considered retro. I personally dont agree with that but they are the mods.

You know that just because they moderate this website doesn't mean they're correct, right?

I though the OP was asking about this site. Not in general.

At the moment I'd probably say it's retro. Sure the GBA Micro came out late, but when a lot of the games for the system came out in the early 2000s and now it's 2013, I think that's a long enough gap that the system can be considered retro.

What is it Wreck-it Ralph says at the end of the movie?

"They're calling as 'Retro', which I think means old, but cool!"

Something along those lines. So yeah, the GBA is cool!
