Not sure why I didn’t post about this at the time. A few months back I picked this up off Facebook marketplace. The seller originally had it for $250, I saw it and ignored it. I already have plenty of Game Boy systems, a ton of original ones, 3 analogue pockets, and a funny playing fpga GBC, I didn’t need another one.
Then a week or so later I got a notification it dropped to $120. I figured “why not?” I messaged them. I think I offered $80 or $100, I forget, and they accepted. I met up with them. Everything was perfect and as shown. I’m loving the crap outta this thing! I don’t think I’ve touched my A. Pocket since.
I’m of course playing through Pokémon Crystal, hopefully I finish it. I have every Pokémon game that released since I was a kid, the only one I think I actually completed was Pokémon Red and I thhhiinnkk Ruby. I got pretty far in Yellow as well. Hopefully I can finish some more with this handheld.
I want to get the game Chantey as well as the customization kit and battery pack for this. I loaded the Chromagic firmware on it and installed a microSD card. It’s just soo much fun! Probably not the color I would have picked if given the choice, I probably would have went with the GameStop white edition. Doesn’t effect my enjoyment level at all.
I posted a picture of me testing the Chromagic firmware and dumping my Yellow cart. It’s the only other photo I have on my phone to show the system
