Happy 20th, Game Boy

[Matthicus]

Oh, the countless nights playing after I was supposed to be sleeping with the light on under my quilt. I remember for my sixth birthday I got a purple GBC and Pokemon Red and Blue and I'm pretty sure I still have all of them.

I only wish the DSi could play GBA games like the other ones.

Man I remember being a youngun getting the first gameboy. That thing was a brick, weighed like 5lb. Still fun, but was vastly improed on by the gameboy pocket, with better clarity, resolution and battery life.

I also had a game gear, better picture, but weighed even more than the old gameboy, and went through 6 batterys in an hour.

Congrats, Nintendo. 20 years of handheld greatness. For the next week, I won't punch people who look at my DS Lite and call it a "Game Boy"...But I will punch people who say that Pokemon is for kids.

Ah, the Game Boy. I remember playing a Tom and Jerry and 101 Dalmatians game on it when I was little.

Sweet times.

The only moves capable of breaking out of frozen status are Flame Wheel and Sacred Fire, last time I checked. TO THE MOVEDEX!
Warp...Warp...Warp...Hmm...oh well, its not here. Time for EXTREME MEASURES!

Onyx return!
Go, Wobbuffet! Yeah. Now you're fucked. Wobbuffet is basically hax. You also can't escape thanks to Shadow Tag!

I remeber buying a lighting thing for my GBA on the same dya, then A week later they come out with the spa

 

[Eagle Est1986]

Huh, that's pretty cool. I still use my ol' gameboy pocket from time to time, I love that little thing, though it has a distinct rattle these days, slightly concerning.

 

[Hey Joe]

Man, I still remember playing NBA Jam with my old Gameboy. I remember the gameboy being a gift from my dad before he died (I didn't know him), and it's sad that it eventually died but I got a heck of a lot of fun out of it.

 

[CeeJay]

How Gameboys have people bought over the years? I cant be the only one whos had more than one..

I had the original brick, a yellow one, an SP and a micro.
