This is a great system for casual gaming. I am not a huge gamer but I enjoy playng this system on long car trips and occasionaly at home when I am bored. This is my absolute favorite Game Boy of all. It is small, light, and has a library of 400+ games. I even value this system over my GBA SP. True it may not have a color display but it has a very fine crisp black and white image. this system also features a contrast button to adjust the picture to your liking. It is very durable as well. Mine has survived much abuse (due to having a smaller sibling consatntly asking to play it then leaving it unattended to be stepped on.) Overall great system. I love the selection of classic fun filled games for it. I have lost my taste for newer Game Boy models. I don't understand all this new technology and the newer games just aren't made like they used to be. As a matter of fact I am selling My GBA SP to get money to buy another Game boy pocket to replace my old beat up one. This is the best system I have ever owned. It is fun, compact, and you can pick them up cheap due to it being outdated. I strongly suggest buying this for yourself or trust me your kids will love it!

youre either a old school game boy fan or not
if you dont wanna spend hundreds or thousands on play stations , althou the aaa batteries can add up after a while, if u just want something you can pick up for five or ten minutes here or there or in those long airport waits or such, this is for you.

This is probley my favirote of all the gameboy systems it survived falling out of my pocket onto contrete very,very hard with only 2 tiny little scrapes (But my favirote and first poekmon red version broke 4 good).It my not have color but its a good type of black and white u can c it very clearly plus it has a contrast ajuster no new gameboy's got that.I don't use mine as much but I don't want 2 damage it I need it in good shape.Its 100% more portable than the 1st gameboy u can fit it in any pocket!!!Get this before they're all gone 4 good

I recently bought a limited edition Ice Blue Gameboy pocket from this seller and there is a list of reasons that I will definitely buy from this seller again:

- I have to say I was impressed with how fast it got to me, I barely blinked and it was here. It came at the perfect time too, I just got really sick and I needed something to do

- The machine itself did have some scratches and other signs of wear on the back but from the description that I read I pictured it to be A LOT worse

- The packaging made me laugh(in a good way) but it seemed to do a great job keeping my Gameboy safe

- It came with more than I thought I paid for, the description said it came with the original precautions booklet but instead of just one I received two

Overall, I was impressed with this seller and I am searching for other products from this person

A must get! Play lots of stuff and also a must get- kiwi!

This game boy pocket is a good game to have with you when you are going in long trips specially in car. The kids love it and it's very chip. You should really buy this game, velibe me it's going to make your kids very happy. Also there are all kind of games for everyone.

Frankly, I hate computer games, and I really hate these little hand held computers that kids seem to be glued to everywhere you go these days. Few things depress me more than seeing a kid sitting indoors (or outdoors, for that mattter) on a beautiful day, eyes fixed on one of these horrid little devices.

So why on earth, then, did I buy one?

Because once you get rid of those awful games, you've got a neat little computer there- and it's cheap, too. It's a digital camera, a programmable controller, and generally just a great platform for hacking. There are hundreds of web sites out there with information on hardware and software hacking these little beasts, and they can be had new and used dirt cheap.

So throw out those games, and replace them with a soldering iron and logic probe. And have fun.
