    I was unsure about buying this instead of an OG Gameboy - but now, i have no regrets whatsoever. This is how it should have been all along! The backlight and color customization vastly improves the experience, and keeps the feel of the original hardware. Quality of the work is exceptional with care clearly given by people who love retro games. Shipped securely and promptly with tracking, and arrived in pristine condition. If you are on the fence, just buy! Thank you Retro Awesome Official! 💕

The price is amazing for the value and quality of this GameBoy. I read the other reviews and took a shot, hoping this would be a quality item. I was very pleasantly surprised!

    Fantastic unit and mods. The screen is vibrant and consistent. The option to change colors is great too! Baterries were included…wow!! They even included some stickers and a little Lego Mario. I would highly recommend this seller. If you’re looking for an awesome backlit OG Gameboy, look no further. You get what you pay for!!!! Thank you!!!

    First-Ever Game Boy Worth the Purchase and Experience of Playing It

    We still have our original game boy and several games that have been stored nicely in tiny plastic cases. Since it’s in bad shape, I wanted to get another one. Fortunately for us, they refurbish them. When it first premiered in the nineties, we had a great time playing with it. Compared to today, the graphics are old school on a black and white screen, but despite that, it’s no different than playing on a cellphone screen today except today’s is more colorful and defined. But playing them on a black and white makes it extra challenging. The sound is very good, and the games are still fun today and even more challenging than I’ve played on my cellphone. This year I gave my new refurbished one as a “fun” gift to my son and we’ve been playing Home Alone, Escape to New York, a game I finished ...

    Screen issues

    When I bought this, I thought the screen would work and just have some cosmetic issues from the era, like yellowing and stuff. You cannot see anything on screen, and has multiple layers of dead pixelation. Hoping we get this resolved

  • Still fun to play.

    The Nintendo Gameboy was by no means an example of the most powerful handheld even during its prime in the early 90s. Its competitors had front-lit or back-lit screens and were in color. What the Gameboy did, however, was provide great games. It's still surprising to me that I can get so engaged in a game like Link's Awakening or Pokemon Red while playing them on a grey brick with a reflective screen that has 4 shades of green. The Gameboy is still fun to play in 2018, the age of backlights, pocket computers, and HD gaming with photo-realistic graphics.

  • Great Vintage Handheld Gameboy!!

    My old original GameBoy Hand Held gave out on me. So I bought another one recently and it really brings back memories of the late 1990's with Tetris, and other games all before cell phone games which has these annoying ads. I absolutely love continuously playing the games and you can use a headphone because it has a 1/4" jack for that. There is nothing else I can say but go out and get yourself one and enjoy the games. If you don't have any games, you can buy them on eBay. There are hundreds of selections!!

  • Game Boy Redux

    This is the original, portable, game console, that in some ways is great granddaddy to the present day smartphone. The display is rudimentary and crude by today’s standards, yet somehow it’s still fun to play. The player is well made, sturdy, with nice controls. For under $75 you can own a piece of history, hone your reflexes, and don’t forget, enjoy the Tetris music forevermore!
