- what can i say?Game Boy Color was the first hand held game I got back when it was still available at wal-mart. Though I got the teal version, it came bright in color and with the two pokemon games I wanted. Battery life is good even for someone that played it for four or five hours, though as others said the screen needs light to be able to play it. Now having lost my teal colored unit I've decided to for this purple one. Rating: - Gameboy Color is Awesome!The Gameboy Color is awesome! They are very small, so it'll easily fit inside a pocket. It has a huge library of games, like Mario, Zelda, Kirby, and Pokémon. The Gameboy Color takes 2 AA batteries, which last up to 10 hours. It is only $9.99 at Gamestop and EBgames, while the newer Gameboys are $79.99. It doesn't have a backlight like the SP and Micro, but wormlights are only about $5.00 here on Amazon. It plays all of the old Gameboy and Gameboy Pocket games, so you don't have to throw away the games you already have. I fully recommend you to get a Gameboy Color! Rating: - game timethe product has been great, except the sounding is not working well anymore.don't know why. disappointed. Rating: - Still an amazing systemGame Boy's are perfect for the gamers who love games not necessarily for the graphics, but for the gameplay. A D-pad and four buttons was what got the entire world addicted to video games, and some developers stick with it, because the games are still fun. Now, for those folks who just bought an XBox 360 for the same exact gameplay of an XBox, just at a higher resolution, you may not want a Gameboy. However, if you could play The Legend of Zelda on the NES for a month straight, and still love it like you did back in 1987, then GBC is for you. As you can tell from my reference, I'm a huge Zelda fan. My family had a Nintendo when I was born in '87, so I've been a loyal Nintendo and Zelda fan my entire life. The only games I had yet to play were Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages for GBC. So, a week ago I purchased them online. Now, I have a Nintendo DS, an original fat-style GBA, a GBC, and the first big hulk Game Boy. I take a 45 minute bus to work each morning, so I decided to take either the GBA or GBC (compatibility limits me to these). And this is what I determined: ALTHOUGH THE GBA HAS A BIGGER SCREEN, the GBC was a better decision. An older game sticks out of the top of the GBA and GBA SP, making it much larger altogether. I had also forgotten how small and thin the GBC system is: It is smaller than the unfolded GBA SP. Plus, I always prefer playing a game at its intended resolution--I can't stand seeing the graphics stretched slightly. If you are thinking about going on a trip, and are considering this product to pass the time, I also recommend ordering one of the following games--I guarantee you'll get hooked on this wonderful little system: The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons Pokemon Gold, Silver, or Crystal Pokemon Pinball Harvest Moon Rating: - The Advance SP is so much betterBefore I got my Advance SP I mostly played my Color system. It doesn't even have a backlight like the Advance SP. I's have to use a stinken light when I play it and it also has horrible graphics. If your wanting to get a Game Boy for your son or daughter get the Advance SP.
