    Fucking A it is

    I paid to get it refurb'd/cleaned by a local shop. I didn't want to mess with the screen and shit with tools I don't have currently.

    You bet your ass it is.

    I can't find my Metroid II and Link's Awakening as they're tossed in with a box of misc games somewhere.

    It does, yeah. I was trying to find reference photos online and didn't turn up much. On the other hand the 99 Diablo Roadster has funky body lines to begin with and it could just be bondod up and resprayed that color

    I never owned a GB, only a GBC... I got it for my 5th birthday in atomic purple. I want to put a backlight in it someday just to play Super Mario Bros Deluxe

    I got the GB with Tetris and those crappy earphones; think it was my favorite Christmas as a kid before Christmas stopped for us :rofl::anonymous:

    GBC has a sharper image, and I never owned one until I bought one used for cheap way back.

    Advance and SP models play regular GB games too but they stick too far out. The SP models are backlit though via a front button.

    Ya I have an Advance too but I can't be bothered to get an SP and I never liked the buttons on the SP anyway. I'd rather just hack a backlight in the Color. Also wouldn't mind a backlight in that too. There's just something about Yoshi's island on the Advance that can't be topped.

    There was a Gameboy Light model, released around the time the Pocket came out.

    I've got a Pocket but not the Light; maybe I should try to find one now that FB is back up.

    Never had a Micro, and I forget when they came out. My brother, because of me, owns the now-rare models like the NES Advance SP and several others.

    Think the Micro came out after? By then, I wasn't running the R Zone anymore; that was the video game section at Toys R Us.

    ebay says the NES SP is only like 90 bucks, whereas the GB Light is like $300 :anonymous:

    They always look good; the vehicle they're on though is sometimes questionable.

    I did play Atari though at a later point as they released a few years before I was born.

    You can buy them, and games, for real cheap still.

    I grew up on NES and Original Gameboy, followed by SNES and Sega Genesis.

    Didn't own an N64 but my bestfriend did since I had Playstation.

    That's when I branched off to Xbox and got lost in the world of online console gaming with XBConnect (before Xbox Live was a thing). You used your PC to trick your Xbox into thinking you had another Xbox locally connected to you, and you'd use Teamspeak or Ventrilo for means of communication via headset.

    Some just stick out more than others depending on the application. It also stands out more on a stock vehicle. Most will look good with a nice set of 33"+ tires.

    Yeah that's for sure.

    A black ARB bumper on a black 3rd Gen 4R looks good (in my opinion), but put it on something like an 80 series Landcruiser and it looks way too bulky and busy up front.
