Today while I was searching for my comfortable toe socks, I stumbled upon my old Game Boy Color and accessories.
I forgot how much of a nerd I was in middle school carrying this monstrosity around. But I loved my Handy Pak that went with it because it magnified and lit up the screen while providing stereo sound and a joy stick. The most important feature was the light. The light saved me from the pains of boredom during long car rides in the dark.
I was the pimp mama of Game Boys back in the day. My guy friends were super-jealous until they copied me and bought one themselves. I have many fond memories riding between school and home playing on this thing. I was also cool enough to have the rechargeable battery pack (purple, of course).
Oh man that kicks ass. I never had the handy pak for my teal gb color. Thanks for bringing back the memories.
ReplyDeleteAnd nice blog, I'll be returning. :)
OMG I had the EXACT same setup! Well...different color gameboy.
ReplyDeleteOh wow this is a blast from the past for me.
ReplyDeleteI remember using a Handy Pak with my GB to play Pokemon and Zelda what now feels like a eternity ago.
Haha nice that thing is decked out!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a alien humps the face of the gameboy XD
ReplyDeleteI never bought those things haha, found them stupid and unhandy
ReplyDeletelol this looks insane
ReplyDeleteI's more a robot than a game boy.. lol
ReplyDeleteDid it even fit in a pocket?
ReplyDeletehmmmm, interesting in. I will be watching your news.

ReplyDeleteholy shit, resizing a gamebox to the size of a xbox1 :P
ReplyDeleteWow, that brings back memories....
ReplyDeletehaha throwback.. classic.
ReplyDeleteLove the tacky plasticness of it.
ReplyDeleteoh man the light issue was bugging me for so long! only if i knew that this set up existed
ReplyDeleteLooks like a beast
ReplyDeleteholy ... ! I didn't even know they had that!
ReplyDeleteI used to have the light and the link cable, but that's about it for gameboy accessories
Shit, that's mental. I had a light and a magnifying glass.
ReplyDeletewow, so much win in this setup
ReplyDeleteIm now going to start playing Pokemon yellow again. If i had gold, silver, or crystal i would prefer those, but the oldies are still good.
ReplyDeleteI still like the old games the best, xbox and ps3 can't compete with oldies.
Geez, never seen that. I remember the light display, that's it.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, i'm feeling so nostalgic now...
ReplyDeletenostalgiaaa... That would look cool back in the days....
ReplyDeleteHaha that's HUGE but I'm still jealous nonetheless

ReplyDeletevery nice setup ;)
ReplyDeletelooks great
ReplyDeletei think those accesories just got in the way tbf :/
ReplyDeletereally huge! I only had the "normal" game boy, but the light would have been awesome
ReplyDeletethat's an awesome setup! I never had a gameboy color, unfortunately.
ReplyDeleteI had one of these, it was as if you upgraded your GameBoy to a Ferrari. I miss it!
ReplyDeleteI had the exact same thing for my kiwi Game Boy. I would pretend it was a Transformer when I would unfold it. The buttons and the joystick on that thing really sucked though. They always got stuck.
