I was wondering who has the old greenscreen? I love mine...

Serg · 01-27-2006, 07:23 AM

Oh man.. those were cool... it's amazing how well Gameboy has done over the years... I don't think the PSP will do as well.. too big...

Do you have any games you don't want?

ive got tetris, double dragon, super mario, and nba all star challenge. never play any of these games but they carry some sentimental value so parting with them would be difficult.

I used to have the old school Ninetendo with the Duck Hunter and Mario Bros. Some how I lost it all over the years. I still have an NES some where in my house. And the games as well with it

I did have the original gameboy, I remember getting it at chirstmas one year I can't really remember. I was playing it full on for the next month or so. I've bought everyone gameboy besept the DS. I didn't really fancy it for it's price.

If anyone wants to see a picture of it:

This was my first gaming handset. Nowadays it's in my brothers bedroom lying around with a swear word written on it :thinkerg:
Anyway I was trying to sell it at a car boot sale a few years back one person picked it up (a boy around 7) and showed it to his mum, the mum put it down stright away and said "We are not intrested". Anyway still lying there and will be for I don't know how long.

Thinking about that old monochrome screen brings me back. I remember being constantly frustrated at not being able to play outside since the slightest tilt in angle or increase of light would blank out the screen. Kids these days sure have it spoiled with their backlit screens

Although I loved the Kirby and Wario games for it.

I don't have the original but I did bought the Game Boy Pocket. Maybe I'll buy the old one too when I see it on a market place or Ebay or something. Sometimes you can find them for $8

Ebay is a good resource. If you were hoping to walk into a store and pick up an used game for the original Gameboy, I would recommend E.B. Games. I have noticed that they will carry some from time to time, and they are usually placed within the glass case-stand with the used Advanced Gameboy and Nintendo DS game they have recieved.

I never had the original Gameboy, but I was quite envious of my friends that had one. There was a fun Prince of Persia and Battleship port on it. The closes I had was a Gameboy Color, but that was way after the age of school yard bragging situations. At the time, I had to settle for my Simon's Quest Tiger hand-held game.
