I just bought a Gameboy!

I'm so happy I still have my old GBC, need to battery fix Pokémon gold though.
Never felt the need to buy a grey brick Game Boy.

Still got my Grey brick GameBoy and Pokémon Blue. I'm just keeping it until it becomes a rarity and prices rocket!

I still have my original game boy to although its green, man I have so many games for it still to. Even have my gameboy color pikachu edition, had a normal see through game boy color. But I gave it to my mom when I got the pikachu one, both are in good shape to.

Here's my backlit clearboy pocket. I love it! (sorry for the huge images slow interneters)

That is a mod right? How was it done, looks kind of like a GBA afterburner mod.

Totally lovely! I might get a GB/C and do the same (after searching for a suitable backlight, obviously!)

Yes, it's a mod, not a difficult one either. Followed Bibin's tutorials (http://8bitcollective.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=15322 here's a good starting point, he links to GBP, GBC and GBA mods on yet another site). I used the backlight module from a ds screen, cut it down to size, stripped the reflector off the back of the screen and wired it up. You just need a bit of wire and a resistor.

This thread has inspired me.

To go with my new GB\C flash cart I'm going to install a front-light, pro sound mod and over clock on a Game Boy Color.

My brother had the gba sp and couldn't play the original gb games. He ended up saling it and bought a gbc instead.

GBA SP will play every Game Boy game ever made.
