the topic title says it all, a few weeks ago i bought a nintendo gameboy from birmingham outdoor market while i was up there with the missis. i intended taking it with me on the riv run, expecting lots of rain and being stuck indoors. however i forgot to pack it, but the weather was great really so didint need it really.

anyway, it came with batteries, a carry case, tetris, and mario. i havnt really dabbled with mario yet, but tetris has provided hours of entertainment so far. i did feel a bit guilty buying it really as its a bit of a waste of money (only twenty quid though) but i have definately had my use from it so far!

anyone else still got one, or still use it?

anyone else into retro games?

I used to have a game boy sp, which was the flip/dual screen version of the advance, it's still around here somewhere, but I don't play with it anymore. My favourite game was Pokemon, without a shadow of a doubt!
