Joa I'm there I had the first edition in this pack with tetris that was a knockout🤣
You probably still know the good accessories like the light so you could play in the dark hahaha
I don't know which Gameboy was the first with lights, but it was awesome what entertained us as kids so well
Edit:
Just remembered the Gameboy color I think it was or did the pocket already have light?^^

Gameboy Pro here: my 1st Gameboy was the Pocket and no, it didn't have a backlight. The Gameboy Light had that.

Then I had the Color, then the Advance SP and then the DS XXL.

I skipped a few after the Advance SP, so the DS etc. didn't itch me. I got the XXL because of Pokemon Black.

It was a great time because almost everyone had a Game Boy and more or less the same games.
I can't remember the light, but I had this power supply that was also a battery. And if you wanted to play against a buddy, you needed this cable connection.

It was a thing with a magnifying glass and a light haha it looked really funny

Oh yes, when Pokemon came out everyone had this cable at the start to trade Pokemons because of red and blue you had to swap to have them all
That's how the hype started and it was a really cool time 😁

Ahh, you mean the accessories. Yes, there are many. Printers, cameras, etc.

I think my last Gameboy was the color and I had a camera for it so I was in the class of the burner 🤣🤣

What mischief we got up to with it
Oh, it's nice to think about all that again

Mine was the Advance SP, then the computer became more interesting for me So at the age of 12-13. It was 2005, when the MMORPGs were all the rage (WoW etc.)

I'm also someone from the Gameboy generation. Super Mario, Paperboy, Tetris. But the absolutely coolest game and almost the revolution of all was Pokémon Red/Blue. All the neighbors were addicted to it, video game, TV series, trading cards and later Dragonball

It was a great time when we spent nights gaming together. PS1 in the pants with Resident Evil, playing Pokémon Stadium on N64 or soccer/manager games like Anstoss or PES or Fifa. Shaving opponents with a steering wheel in Need for Speed Underground, and of course having a lot of fun. Above all, these games were fun to play. I don't really need the super graphics of today. Most gamers sit at home alone with a headset and that's it. Not really my world

I also have all the emulators on my cell phone, for example. NDS, 3DS, Gameboy, Gameboy Advance, N64, PS1 etc. and still play the old stuff now and again. It was just a great time back then and the many problems I had around it were forgotten for a short time

I can't help but think of the conversion chip for the PS1. You could use it to play the "backup copies". 😄
I had a colleague who, I think for 5 marks, could get any game, er, backup copy.
It was also iDEAL for bridging waiting times in the Bundeswehr. There were a lot of them. Endless long sessions of Frontschweine or Tony Hawk's Pro Skater.

I'll have to look for emulators for my cell phone. Playing the old stuff from time to time is fun.

Big Word


You and I are very similar buddy,
Pokemon Stadium with 5 people all night on n64 was amazing 😂😂
Fifa and Anstoß I was there too haha how cool xD

Today you can forget it
All these games that you feel like you need a degree to understand and are more interested in reading and frustrated most of the time
Or this free2play shit

Need4speed Underground 2 was my fav when it came out and the song here is just killa

Here in Duisburg there's still a store called Multimedia Corner where you could have your Playstation rebuilt, I still have a PS1 with a warranty sticker on it. Then we had Satchmo in the same part of town. A rental shop where you could rent Playstation and N64 games, best to return them on Saturdays and Monday evenings, you didn't have to pay on Sundays. My late grandfather gave me a CD burner as a present, and I used to burn CDs and movies on an old 300 MHz PC. Later I went to a youth home and made a pretty good living from it


Emulators for cell phones. Nintendo 3DS Citra, Nintendo DS Drastic, Advance Myboy, etc. There are a few in the Appstore or look for the Apk file on the Internet. Drastic even has a huge cheat list with the games where you can select them at the touch of a button. Top

I'll have a look at emulators these days, thanks.

My colleague also made a lot of money with it back then. But then he made a huge mistake. Got a warning for an "18+ movie" 😉. Got a fine of 2500. I can't remember whether it was still in Deutschmarks or euros. in any case, the "business" was closed afterwards 😄
