Gameboy discussion thread

Hey folks!

We had a similar thread on the old place so I thought I'd recreate it here, so if you have any thoughts from the orignal gameboy to the GBA ye can use this place.


I love that it went from this


to this

I've been playing fire pro wrestling on my GB Micro again such a great game even if I did forget how to pin my opponent I really hope we see it added to wii U's GBA section of VC games.

I liked:


My first ever handheld! I got Robot wars as my first game, it was alright but at the time I loved it.

Look at that. My first ever console. I still have it around somewhere. First games were SML, SML2 and DKL2; at first I only ever played SML, graduating onto the other two later. Took 4 AAs, but kept going on them for a decent length of time.

Then I had a purple GBC, covered in stickers; a transparent blue GBA; and a normal GBA SP. I still prefer the GBA to its later model: the frontlight was great, don't get me wrong, and it was more pocket-sized, but the shape of the GBA was nicer to hold. The SP's shoulder buttons were 'orrible.

Vidofnir: ...are...are you me? That was my first handheld, same colour and all, and Robot Wars was one of the three games I got with it. The other two were Star Wars and Super Mario Land 2. I still love Super Mario Land 2. The other two... not so much.

Pokemon came soon after. Red, Blue, and Yellow were all put through their paces. I remember Pokemon Silver being the first game I was ever hyped for.

haha, I played Pokemon Yellow quite a bit, then eventually got Crystal.

I remember the shock of seeing the pokemon move as they entered battle. :affraid:

I had Stadium for that.

loved my gameboy, i used to have loads of games for my pocket i think i started with a pocket, i cant remember where all the games came from as i was about 5 or 6 when i got mine, ohh pokemon and the wario games were the best. Later of course i got a GBA etc which was my 1st midnight launch in choices video. but i diont think the Gameboy is the vest handheld i no @stu would say DS but me its the Neo Geo Pocket Color

I still love all things Game Boy. Currently playing Klonoa: Empire of Dreams on GBA, and it's refreshing to go back to playing a game that's so simple, yet so intricate at the same time. You can stick your epic cinematics and voice acting.

I just picked up one of these for $40 on Sunday, now going to find some games for it

Ooh, nice! I have one of those, but mine's yellow:



May I recommend this exceedingly fine game?



I absolutely love Hamtaro: Ham-Hams Unite. Must replay it again soon; it's so relaxing!
