The Gameboy:Color is a BEAST of an handheld.
It performed incredibly while having huge battery life, it also had an amazing library of games.
The handheld was so powerful that you could literally OC it to play it fast as fuck like in an emulator.

>No back light.

>playing vidya in a low light environment
Is like you want to destroy your eyes or something
I'm sad they don't use the Game Boy brand anymore. Nostalgia, probably, but Game Boy DS has a nice ring to it. I still have mine laying around somewhere.
>>323455306
>not just installing one yourself
Stop being a bitch anon.

>He never played GBC until mignight before going to school.
Played crystalis on that mother fucker. I know people say the nes version was better but i fell in love with that gbc version. It also frustrates me to no end thay i cant find the gbc version of the sound track anywhere

We had sufficient light bulbs, poorfag.

They made a gameboy light a year before it's release. How hard was it for them to put it in the GCC?
>>323455306
dont worry we had this monstrosity
>>323456397
They said that the colors where terrible with the backlight.
>>323456541
It's funny how I dealt with such bullshit as a kid but never thought much of it.
>>323456541
Oh boy, I have that black box thing that came with a game boy and a bunch of peripherals attached around here somewhere. I reemmber using both that thing AND that one plastic nonsense that you attached on top of the controls to emulate an analog stick.
>>323456541
I had this badboy.
Only used it during trips because it was like playing with a magnifying glass.
>>323456397
Who knows why they didn't. Must've had sopme reason considering the GBA didn't have one until the SP.
>>323456541
This thing was a fucking blessing on road trips and coming from from the grandparents house.
>road trip
>turn on backseat lights during the night
>"turn that off anon, it is illegal to have these on during the night"
>found out it wasn't illegal at all, you just couldn't see shit because of it
Thanks dad, but I understand why.
>>323457164
Everyone went for the clear one, right?
>>323457164
>>323457814
Nah, mine is Purple :^)
best color reporting in
>>323457814
PLAY IT CLEAR representing!
>>323456625
That's bullshit. Considering I can buy a lighting kit for it.
>>323458237
Now you can, there is perfect material to do it yourself now, back then they had shitty backlighting that degraded display quality.
>>323455145
>make gameboy with backlight
>leave it out on the color
Bravo Nintendo
>>323457164
Those aren't Game Boy Colors. Those aren't even Game Boy Pockets.
>>323458173
>not seethrough plastic
trash
>>323455145
Gameboy SP was the best
flip like a phone, backlight, backwards compat, nice buttons.
>>323459789
It was the worst handheld Nintendo ever made in terms of ergonomic factor.
It wasn't comfy at all holding it, longer sessions could literally injure your hands.
If the GBA had BL and a bigger screen then it would had been godlike.
>>323458774
This guy gets it.
>>323457193
holy shit my dad told me the same thing when I was a kid
>>323460073
>it wasn't comfy at all
???
maybe if you had andre the giant sized hands as a kid. the SP is incredibly comfy, the buttons are just the right amount of resistance, the size is perfect, and the lighting system was perfect (if you had a 001 model).
>>323461903
I'm 176cm right now.
Back when the handheld was released I was 12 and I didn't like holding it at all, I loved the games and the backlight though.
>>323461903
101 is the one wth proper backlighting. 001 is frontlit garbage.
>not owning a portable N64 brick
Poorfags.
