About this product

Product Information

With the convenience of portability, the Nintendo Grape Game Boy Color handheld system fits easily in the palm of your hand. The system has user-friendly operation buttons, contrast adjustment, a battery light, a volume dial, a speaker, and jacks for external power and headphones. You can also play two-player games by connecting the Game Boy Color to another model via the extension connector. Optional accessories that you can add to your model include stereo headphones and a video link cable. The Nintendo Game Boy Color requires four AA batteries, and the battery light will glow when it’s time to change the batteries. The monochrome liquid crystal display in the purple Nintendo Game Boy Color provides you with all the vivid colors and crispness you have come to expect from Nintendo. If you prefer a lighter or darker display for the Game Boy, simply adjust the contrast adjustment dial on the side of the screen. The contrast display adjustment is also ideal for low or excessive lighting conditions. At the top of the Game Boy purple system, find the Game Pak slot for use with Gameboy paks. With the label facing up, slide the Game Pak into the slot, and look for the colors of the “Nintendo” display on the screen. Individual games proceed with instructions and playing information. If the screen stays blank, turn the console off, remove the pak, and reinsert it. Always remove a Game Pak after turning the Grape Game Boy system off, and store the paks in their cases to protect them. The 8-bit gaming system of the original Nintendo Game Boy Color will run for up to 30 hours of playtime when you’re playing mobile on the batteries, providing ample opportunity to hit high scores in your favorite games, such as Pokemon, Mario, and others. You can also play Pokemon on the Grape Game Boy for a virtually limitless time thanks to the external power supply capability. Maintenance of the Nintendo Game Boy Color handheld system is simple, so you can keep them in good working order.

    Can play in the dark

    I already had a normal, unmodified Game Boy Color in good condition but I bought this so I could play on original hardware in the dark without having to perform any mods myself. Front-lit Screen: First, I understand that this will never look as good as a modern back-lit screen. The light feels like it has a slight tint to it, but it's because the GBC doesn't have a pure white background, not from the light itself. There are little imperfections in the screen (little bubbles in the adhesive between the screen and the light) and from what I understand it's near impossible to get rid of them all. I expected this, and I figured I'd rather trust someone else who's experienced to do a better job with the mod than I could. After playing for several days, the imperfections don't bother me. ...

    Does the job

    It worked.I was able to satisfy some nostalgia. The sound didn’t work at all; would just make a static noise. The case was in good condition, screen didn’t have any scratches. No other issues.

  • Great Product

    Bought this product the other week as I am a huge gaming fan, growing up in the 80s when it all started and 90s when GB Color was released it was very cool to be able to get my hands on a piece of gaming history. The quality is superb and well done, the backlit Mod is well executed, overall counsel condition of this handheld was near mint!! Would never know it wasn't just taken out of its box! Being able to play GB Color in the dark is huge!

    Looks and feels great! The repro body is every bit as high-quality as an OEM shell, the display is phenomenal, and it looks and feels brand new. Great buy!

  • Amazing system for the right price!

    I wish I could give a deeper feedback, but the system works just about fine, it wasn't dirty and while showing some wear it is nothing too distracting. The fact it came with the battery cover is equally impressive. The only downside I could think of would be that the headphone jack doesn't provide the best sound quality, but I can't be sure if that is because of the jack or how the GBC sound system worked really. Besides that, I lovely system to recall childhood memories!
