      I mean did anyone think this wouldn't happen?
      They aren't manufacturing this stuff anymore and as more and more of it breaks and more people just keep theirs to themselves the more expensive the few things that are out there get.

    Red and Blue play best on a Super Gameboy. They have a color palette in battle. Not sure if yellow's western GBC mode is any different.

      It is better. Yellow changes all the colors for every town.

    Japanese import GBs are way cheaper. Also...

    Picrel is ~$200, supports GB/GBC/GBA cartridges natively, and even supports link cable for both gens.

        $100 isn't bad at all for a GBC. Also point still stands that Japanese GBC imports are way cheaper. I just checked the listings and saw like three JPN GBCs for under $40.

    just get an emulator or one of the $60 gameboy looking machines on aliexpress. you'll feel like a fricking tool a month later after realizing you were scammed for something you could've had the same experience for for free.

    This is a build it yourself Gameboy Color FPGA device. $70 for the parts but another $10 for the shell custom fit for the device and another $5 for buttons and membranes.

    If you do go for the Analog Pocket (which they just announced all preorders have been fulfilled and they are now shipping within 24 hours.) Be aware that sleep mode and save states on the Gen III games can lead to data loss.

          Kek, this kit doesn't even look like it even needs soldering. You could just fit the PCB into the shell.

            Yep. Just watched an overview.

            No soldering involved. If anon can't even twist a few screws in he's gonna be on suicide watch when his cartridges internal battery runs dry.

    No, they go from between $60-$70. They have been $50+ since the pandemic. They are popular for mods. You better get yours while you still can since they are getting gutted for the FOTM youtuber chink mod.

        >using Amazon for literally anything

        amazon marketplace is a fricking wasteland of scams, never use amazon for anything that isn't sold directly from amazon themselves.
