/vr/ - Retro Games

I have a white Play It Loud, what do I win?

Not retro by my favorite is the second backlit model (101-A) of the GBA SP. But if we're talking purely retro, the Game Boy Pocket was my favorite incarnation and I'm still kicking myself for trading away mine.

>tfw have a yellow one
is there a worse color

Looks great. You win a kick-ass looking Gameboy.

>>1964241
Glacier.

>>1964242
How's the backlight on that? Is it a loud greed?

>>1964241
GBC? Pink and solid purple are FAR worse. Yellow is actually on the cool side of things, apart from that uninspired Pikachu model (wasn't that a Pocket though?).

>>1964242
Is the screen on that as crummy as the GBP's?

>>1964246
I swear the battery life has something to do with it. at times it is more of a blue colour. but right now it is more green like in the boxart.

Grape is the best GBC color

What's the most underrated special edition color in Gameboy history and why is it the awesome looking green and orange model?

>>1964257
I just love seeing the guts of ancient electronics. Damn shame they didn't do that after the Advance.

>>1964231
I currently have the play it loud red but I'd love to have the gameboy light for around the house play.
I'd love to pick up Donkey Kong, Space Invaders and the kirby/loz games to breath some life into my gameboy/SGB

There's a Limited Edition clear 2DS coming out for the new pokemon remakes.

I recently picked up a blue Game Boy Pocket. Loving it so far. Much easier to play than the original.

I also have this black and purple GB. Is this a Play It Loud model?

>>1964231

It's a tough choice, but if I had to choose a favorite based on aesthetics alone (not capability), it's pic related.

>>1964237
nice, very impressive.

DMG+ Backlight and stereo mod.

The color doesn't sound as good, and the GBA chip makes my ears bleed.

>>1964302
Yes, that's PIL.

Have an atomic purple GBC and a blue GBP. I prefer using the GBP.

What's the best place to buy a good PIL online?

>>1964409
The audio quality of the GBC is lower than that of the DMG, plain and fucking simple. Notice how I said the word EARS instead of EYES as well?

Yea.

>>1964413
It was a joke

never thought I'd see the day a tripfag overreacted

>>1964413
Calm down autist.
Your trip reputation isn't tarnished or anything.

>>1964415

>>1964417

Implying I had any kind of reputation to begin with.

>purposely misinterpreting a post is a joke, it's not my fault I'm terrible at telling jokes

>>1964421
sorry, I should have said "troll" instead :^)

I just got Amazing Tater for 15 bucks. Now if only I could luck out on Spud's Adventure as well...

>>1964475
Damn son. I've seen assholes trying to get as much as $3000 for that. how'd you score that?

>>1964231
I see Pocket Bomberman and Wario Land 2, but what are the other four?

>>1964482
Looking through hundreds of pages worth of GB games on my local eBay.

I was hoping to find bargains in assorted lots when I came across it. The funny thing is that the listing was actually titled 'Amazing Tater'.

I still can't believe my luck.

My personal preference is a Gameboy Color with a Teal front and Strawberry back. Never saw much appeal in GBA games, that's just me.

>Gameboy Color with a Teal front and Strawberry back

Was that an actual variant? If it's a custom, from where does the appeal derive?

I have an atomic purple GBC and a glacier Advance, but my favorite is my SP. Even though it isn't technically retro...

This is my favorite pre-Advance Game boy.

>>1964231
Currently playing Warioland3 on my Atomic Purple GBC. And Kirby's Pinball Land on my red GB pocket.

>>1965427
not this shit again

>>1964604
Custom. I guess they're just my favorite colors, saw a lot of both when I was a kid.

>mfw never got a gameboy because parents always said "why would you want to play on that tiny screen when you can just play on your nintendo or your computer"

(3) teal gbc
(2) grey yellowed dmg gameboys
(1) atomic purple gbc
