## Description

The Game Boy is that small, colorful handheld video game system clutched by folks playing it everywhere. Popular among a wide age group, including a good number of airport-lounging power executives, the Game Boy has a true hardcore fan base comprised of millions (and millions) of kids around the globe. Nintendo's Game Boy debuted in the late '80s and has since sold more than 60 million units worldwide, far outpacing other hand-held game systems. With a catalog of more than 1,000 games and dozens of add-on peripherals, Game Boy is a monster of a hand-held game system, and a remarkably affordable one at that. Early March 1998 brought the release of the Game Boy Color system, an upgraded version of the original black-and-white system. It is equipped with an 8-bit CPU, doubling the original Game Boy's computing power. The small LCD screen can display up to 56 colors simultaneously (out of a 32,000-color palette), delivered via boosted video-processing memory that provides remarkably sharp and vibrant graphics. The hundreds of available games vary from tremendously compelling to instantly forgettable. Quality or not, the entire library of games designed for the original system is playable on Game Boy Color, but buyers should note that not all Game Boy Color games will work on the original Game Boy system. The Game Boy Color system is available in an exotic array of colors and special editions. Accessories and add-on peripherals abound, enhancing the playing experience with vibrating feedback to in-game bumps and crashes, extra battery power, and even a clever camera package that allows players to capture, tweak, and print images. --Eric Twelker The Game Boy Color, is a handheld game console from Nintendo. It is the successor of the Game Boy. The Game Boy Color, as suggested by the name, features a color screen. It is slightly thicker and taller than the Game Boy Light, which is a redesigned Game Boy released in 1998. As with the original Game Boy, it has an 8-bit processor and the custom Zilog Z80 central processing unit.

Review: Few problems, but overall great quality - Received my GameBoy on time. There are some scratches on the screen but that’s to be expected from a used console. The rubber select and start buttons are ripped a bit, but nothing to be upset about, as the buttons still work fine. The console was a little dirty when I received it, but 5 minutes and a couple baby wipes fixed that. But it runs games great. No problems with how it works Honestly I was expecting it to be in much worse condition so this was great. My only problems were cosmetic and an easy fix
Review: Gameboy Color, Perfect Condition, Total blast from the past - Works perfectly !! Definitely feels like a blast from the past ! I purchased this gameboy color through “Vintage Games & More”. I would definitely recommend their store if your looking for old systems on desertcart. I was skeptical but it came a day early and worked just perfectly! Even has a new screen Definitely worth the buy !

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good buy
*by T***E on August 29, 2013*

I was skeptical of buying a used game boy color because I have seen how some people have treated this system, and it is not as kindly as I have babied mine throughout its 15 years on this earth. Once I received this product, I put batteries in it and it didn't turn on, so of course I thought I was scammed. After another minute or two of swapping batteries in and out of it, it turned on and now I have no issues. Now I can traded all of the pokemon I want from Red to Silver and vice versa!
