I had a gameboy once. It hard to play when you're suppose to go to sleep. laugh.gif Good thing they invented the new one with a backlight (Game boy light). My best GB or rather GBC title is Metal Gear Solid. Now I wonder why couldnt' they remake that for current generation portables.

swatty's GB looks surprisingly new..... gosh that mario game! it's called super mario land btw, not Mario World.

it was the first game i got for my Gameboy, even back then this first mario land felt dated, when mario land 2 rolled out.... i was completely swept away by the graphics. it was like super mario world.... remember mario's bunny ears power-up in mario land 2? neat but totally useless....

would luv a revival right now but my LCD screen on the gameboy looks like it bite the dust liao.

i have the same problem as well, in fact it's so severe that i'm convinced that it doesn't work anymore though i never really try it out to find out for sure. it looks like a black pool has formed behind the LCD screen.... lemme see if i can take a pic next time.

Got one GBC too bcoz of pokemon. Amazingly the cart's save still works until now unlike many bootleg nowadays! So maybe mine is an original?

Regarding the screen mine has a circular spot formed from the edge of the screen. The colour surrounding near the edge of the screen somehow looks faded. Maybe rechargeable battery just doesn't go well with gameboy?

Gold connectors = original. Both ori and bootleg copies have built-in battery so don't bother checking for it.
