Thank you, Dad. 🙂 That means more to me than you'll ever know. I've always treasured those memories, and you're a big part of the reason I'm able to do this stuff now. I love you too!

Nicely done! And how funny, I did the same thing, putting one of each board revision in each launch color for my collection! 😊

You know what they say, brother. Great minds.... :)

Hi Kyle, This board is using the "CPU CGB" revision system-on-chip which is somewhat special in that it contains a slightly different boot ROM than the other SoC revisions. I managed to dump this boot ROM (cgb0_boot.bin) a few years back by using BennVenn's clock glitching trick and LIJI (of SameBoy fame) compared it to the previously dumped CGB boot ROM and found the following differences: - CGB0 does not initialize Wave RAM, newer revisions do - CGB0 uses less optimized code to load the Game Boy logo - CGB0 has two redundant writes to RAM, which were removed in newer revisions Now if you want to try finding something even more rare, look for a Game Boy Color using the "CPU CGB A" revision SoC :-) Based on the date stamps on the CPU it was likely only manufactured for one or two weeks back in 1998. The serial number ranges of known units are a bit strange because there are units using the "CPU CGB B" revision SoC with lower serial numbers. From the 3 known units identified, the serial number ranges indicate that there may be around ~6,000 in existence. Look for a berry red coloured boy in (or near) this range: C10400331 - C10405970. A unit with C10410000 serial number has been identified as too high (contains CPU CGB B).

Hi Matt, thank you for commenting! I'd be interested in talking more over on Instagram. I appreciate all of this great info! 🙂 Cheers, man!

Love seeing early revisions like this. Good job restoring it

Amazing video Kyle, it’s very interesting learning about this rare board

Great video, and BennVenn is the man!

Had me looking at all my Gameboys! No luck 3s an 4s! Great video as always!!!!

I'll have to keep an eye out for these. Nice video

Do you know what is the value for the capacitor in the cartridge (that you resoldered)?

Where do you find these? I’d love to find some and try to repair them

I have a 03 version, where P10 is not shorting, hence button A is not working. Is there a way to fix that? (ground is working on P10.)

Hi there from were do you get the motherboards?

I enjoyed the video but I can't get my power adapter plug to charge my funny playing battery lol or power the up the gameboy...any ideas ?

Where did you buy these?

Really cool stuff pal, I’m envious of the collection!

Is there any difference in the bios / how the game plays on this board revision? I do have a version 1 DMG game boy and it has a bunch of différences. For example when there is no game there is no black bar instead of the nintendo logo, the screens just flashes. Also the screen flashes black instead of white where there is a "transition?" In a game like in the title screen for example

Ah, I haven't actually noticed any of that, but we should talk more about this over in our Instagram chat! I'd be curious to see some footage of yours. Cheers, brother! :)

Hace mucho que subiste este video y no se si leerás este mensaje, tengo una Game boy color que no da imagen, tiene 2 condensadores cambiados, el c35 es el original. La consola enciende led y audio pero sin imagen, he probado con otra pantalla y mismo resultado y la pantalla de esa consola en otra placa y funciona. He medido el converter y me da los valores de -14 y 5v. Tienes idea de qué puede ser? No tengo muchas ganas de quitar Converter de una placa y poner en otra. Gracias

Nice, I do have (at least) one like that, so not sure if it is actually rare. Too bad it doesn't have something cool and unique about it as the DMG CPU 01 does.

Dang was hoping the el cheapo was back in stock but nada el cheapo for me o

Guys i found one of my GBC version 3 & the other one without a number

Keep it up 😁👍

here I am looking at my cgb-cpu-01 in the midst of cleaning it, I didn't know that it was rare Mine is staying a daily driver, collectors don't hate me XD

Did you notice the number on the CPU chips for the 01s are "9834 I" and "9832 I" while the rest end in "IA"?

Thanks for pointing that out! To be honest, I wish I would have taken some much closer looks at these boards before I put this video up! I feel like I missed a ton of details while filming, of which I'm sure many will remind me. Perhaps this warrants a part 2 video..? :)

@@KyleAwsm PLEASE! I love the Gameboy line and have yet to come across an 01. This is a great video! 🔥👍👊👊

this board should be put on crystal clear case.

Lol how rare? Odd, I've seen so many of these.
