Where do I buy old broken gameboys for cheap to fuck with? I live in the Netherlands and everyone seems to think their raunchy broken GBC is worth €200. Preferably no shipping costs higher than the actual price.
>>
gameboys don't even have region lock do they? just order one from ebay or some shit
>>

also, i saw this gameboy in person

Import from Japan, they're a dime a dozen. If you buy in bulk the shipping is more reasonable.

>>3333809
Just got one from my little brother for $5

this desu
All* GBs and GB games are region-free so you're good to go

*) Mario's Picross wasn't, but that's the only one... I think? Someone correct me on this one.
>>

I'm pretty sure al GB hardware and software is region free, if Mario's Picross isn't that would be very strange.

>to fuck with?
What can you even do with a Gameboy outside of playing games and making garbage music?
>>
>>3335870
I'm asking a legitimate question though?
Do you just want to fuck around with the internals and mod in some lights or what?
>>
>>3335869
This is the worst bait I've ever seen.

>If you buy in bulk the shipping is more reasonable
Wouldn't count on it. Fuckers always try to rip you off on shipping.

>old broken gameboys
I don't know. All the ones I find in the flea markets here for five bucks work and are in good condition
>>
>>3335873
Not the guy you're replying to, but I'm curious about this. What other uses are there?
>>
>GBs are expansível as fuck due to bazinga culture
>see online options
>much cheaper
>tfw the mailing and customs taxes and fees raise the price to what I'd pay here
>>
>>3337403
Not /vr/,
but that really sucks. I was going to send something out overseas and my recipient had to refuse because of customs charging out the ass.
>>
>>3337425
Indeed. Also, dollars are expensive as hell and there are silly rules preventing us to import "heavy" electronics.

As did I, pretty dank desu. This was 2008, at Nintendo Power's 25th anniversary event. Even got a shoutout (sorta) for coming from Canada lmao (except they forgot to put Canada, so it could be any of the same named towns in the US...)
