    Have an original gameboy up for trade. In nice condition and no yellowing. Just needs a bit of a clean which I will do before trading. Interested in anything really, just try me! I'll put up a few pics later.

    You can sit in the 'no NES corner' along with Retr0 and think about what you've done.

    Don't suppose you'd part with one in exchange for a lovely gameboy ? :D


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 5,386 Mod ✭✭✭✭Optimus Prime


    Well the way it is at the minute, I have one working which i use to play on, and i want another to put into the Original box i have as a backup. that leaves 3. Ive to sell two of them on, we need the money and i used the excuse of selling them on to the other half to get the last two to fix. so if the other 3 work, and i sell two ill do a trade for the other one.

    At the minute though, only one is working, the others are flashing grey, two of them come on when you hold the game down though so ive 72pins on the way. The other one im not sure if its fixable, ive removed the region pin on it so its region free. Ill have to wait and see what happens when the new 72pins get here.

    I have a yellow original Gameboy I might be up for trading, it is yellow, not beige gone yellow. It's been a while since I had it out of it's case. As I remember, the plastic is pretty crisp, battery and link covers present and snap on like new. The protective screen may have been replaced before I got it, there may be some small traces of super glue on it, but not on the dot matrix display. Had a bit of a shine for yellow Gameboys a few years ago, have a yellow Pocket too. I need to dig them out an see if they're in as good condition as I remember and if the glue residue is obvious. Let me know if you might be interested in a yellow GB.
