Worst decision I ever made. Currently I use my DS as a doorstop.

I wanted those vintage gameboy and I still do! But at the moment I need money although my boyfriend want to buy it for me but I dont want him too.

I did for Pokemon back when I was little. Not many great games for the DS have come out recently, save for one.

Advance Wars.

I have bought the following:

Game Boy
Game Boy Pocket (clear)
Game Boy Color (green)
Game Boy Advance SP (silver)

And I'm thinking about buying the Game Bout DSI.

I miss my old Gameboy color, it's what first got me into gaming . . . trading pokemon with friends in the car . . . good old days

 

[mokes310]

I owned one of the original gameboys, and the only game that I ever played was the Jurrasic Park game. I put hours upon hours into that game!

What's with you and starting threads with no text? And I'm pretty sure 99% of people here have owned a GB/DS at one point in their lives

 

[moza]

Never have, and never will. Just not me, but if thats what floats your boat then go for it.

 

[Dragonrabbit]

I've had/have:

• A Gameboy Pocket
  A Gameboy Color
  A Gameboy Advanced SP
  A Nintendo DS fat

Good OP by the way, provocative words, really made me think.

 

[Nouw]

Technically I didn't. My aunt when I was like little got me my GBA and my cousin gave me his DS lite

 

[Pimppeter2]

I have 2 gba, 1 for my bro and 1 for me, i used to play it all the time when i wa a wee piece of shit

 

[t0rm3n7]

dang I feel old... I got my GB the day it came out.

Gameboy (Red)
Gameboy Pocket (the icy blue)
Gameboy Color (lime green)
GBA (purple)
GBA SP (Silver)
DS (Original Silver)

does Virtual Boy count?
btw, Gameboy Micro is retarded, I can't hold it properly, cause my hands are too big...

 

[Cleverpun]

I've bought, or received as a gift, just about every single iteration of Nintendo handheld:
- The original gray brick (decomissioned)
- a green Pocket (around)
- a lime green GBC (still working)
- a "glacier GBA" (stolen)
- silver SP (still working)
- DS, the fat original silver one (I play it on a regular basis)

I agree with t0rm3n7 that the micro is retarded. It's more like a functional keychain than anything.

When I was a little kid I bought a gameboy becuase all my friends had one. They recommended pokemon. Of course I was like 2 and I could not read. Every two seconds I would go to my parents and ask them to read it to me. I stopped playing it after 2 days.

Game Boy Advance (rectangle)
Game Boy Advance (square flip open) <-- bought because lost rectangle one & they stopped selling it, rectangle one was better.
