About this deal

Photography has sure come a long way since 1998, but the Game Boy Camera remains a unique piece of tech that’s still worth revisiting twenty-four years later. Some use of " " in your query was not closed by a matching "". Some use of " " in your query was not closed by a matching "". Showing my bias here. This was my Game Boy Color, and it was the first video game system I ever owned. Love you forever, my little baby. Yellow maybe seems ostentatious to some, but this is the most subtle, charming, beautiful yellow on the color spectrum. Also, it reminds me of Pikachu, which is good.

The Game Boy Color (commonly abbreviated as GBC) is an 8-bit handheld game console, manufactured by Nintendo, which was released in Japan on October 21, 1998 [6] and to international markets that November. It is the successor to the Game Boy and is part of its product line. Critics like IGN consider it more akin to a hardware revision than a next generation product. [7]

According to my highly accurate vacuum spectrometer... it could be 4.61% more indigoish[1] (a very scientific term). Jk Thanks to recent gadgets and modifications that have breathed new life into the ’90s camera, it’s never been a better time to jump into the hobby.

The neon-green Game Boy Color is one of those things that sounds ... interesting ... on paper, but fails to win anyone over in practice. This was the most obnoxious color you could get your GBC in. If you had that kiwi handheld, you either had parents who got really, really close to nailing your birthday present and missed by mere inches, or you just had to be the most extra person at school. Kiwis should be eaten, not played with.And lo, the internet did rage. "It's not blue," they said. "That's bloody purple." Some people compared it to the colour of a Game Boy Advance; others said it was more like a GameCube. Blurple. One of the best things about this system is that once you reach the upper parts of the list, you have a lot of good choices. Teal is one of the better blue variants, and so, too, is this Game Boy Color one of the nicest out there. I’m more of a sky blue person, myself, but good job here, Nintendo. In YouTuber ConorSev’s video, he improves the Canon EF lens adapter design to fix the lens’s focus. Despite the absolute ridiculousness of the massive lens on the tiny camera, it works surprisingly well. Day, Ashley (May 2006).

I have so many fond memories of it. It was my first Game Boy, I actually got it before the original which my older cousin gave me when they thought it was broken (I fixed that one, it just had a bent spring for the battery slot)For dozens of select Game Boy games, the Game Boy Color has an enhanced palette built-in featuring up to 16 colors—four colors for each of the Game Boy's four layers. [21] If the system does not have a palette stored for a game, it defaults to the "Dark green" palette. However, at power-up, one of 12 built-in color palettes is selectable by pressing a directional button and optionally A or B while the Game Boy logo is present on the screen. Naturally, then, I carried my Game Boy Color everywhere and sunk absurd amounts of hours into Pokémon. I was in love with the franchise at this point, and I remember my friends and I would link up during our lunch breaks at school and trade Pokémon. To this day, it’s still the only Pokémon game that I’ve managed to 100% complete, and it’s honestly not even close. If blue is mixed with red at all - even 99% blue & 1% red - it's a variant of purple. It's really that simple. No red in it, it's blue - any red at all, it's purple. More red than blue is magenta, and more blue than red is indigo, exactly in the middle is a true purple.
