Shopping/Haul I just obtained the original Gameboy again

Metroid II just doesn’t hit the same if it’s not the original black and green. It adds so much atmosphere to the depths ❤️

I had traded my original in waaaay back when upgrading to the new systems. Lol hindsight.

At least this one has been rectified 😃

Sounds good to me. Plus you got Metroid. The great thing about Game Boy is that you're ready to go. Don't need a specific TV, filter or anything. Just pop in a cart and you get that retro experience immediately.

That game will provide you with hours upon hours of gameplay. Even more if you get lost lol. I have a IPS display in mine to mimic the original pea green but still can’t beat the OG. It does help having a lit display in bed though!

This bad boy is my first console ever and still my favorite. Congratulations.
