    Sometimes sellers get excited about the games they sell or they get to know you(I use eBay) and I like letting them know what they sell me goes into my collection and that I'm not a reseller. I bought Bravely Default and Bravely Second and the seller hoped I enjoyed my playthrough. I let them know I'm a collector and am excited to have them. Connections...so pure

    I had one of those gba afterglow front lights, and yes they were terrible. The dial should adjust the brightness but it's never going to be great. The module on top has contacts that touch the screen cover to power it. Maybe try unplugging that and putting it back on to get better contact? Definitely a blast from the past. Good luck!

    that pink SP had some solvent poured on it, something like lacquer thinner or based on the color of the system, more likely acetone in the form of nail polish remover.

    That pink SP looks almost like it was a deliberate design choice. It'd be perfect as a Splatoon special edition. Also I find it funny that you refer to a bunch of MacBooks but not a single one of those Macintosh laptops was an actual MacBook. Just PowerBooks and iBooks. :)

    I was a key holder at GameStop and we got a lot of SPs on trade. That where is very common. It's actually just from it being put down on a table and picked back up. It's how they wear. I think the heat from the backlight causes it, but if you've seen a lot of game boy SPs it's very common on high use models.

    Been using Sendico since the Japan vlog series. It's amazing all the cool stuff you can find for such good deals, I've recently picked up a splatoon 2 pro controller with a broken ZR trigger for ¥2400. Should be a fairly easy fix, if need be I can shell swap another pro controller I have. Super excited for that, I've also ordered a lot of DS and DS lites, maybe more than I should 😂

    Hi Elliott.hi have a something to ask . When the original first game boy came out here in the the UK my dad bought my little brother one brand new the day it came out and my little brother played it to death. But the thing is my brother's one bought from Dixon's was the same as any other game boy but the A and B where blue and the box was white with all the writing in the same blue . And it had a Dixon's sticker with 1st 100 edition stuck on the box. Unfortunately it's long gone proberly in a land fill somewhere. But have you ever heard or seen an genuine original game boy with all blue buttons. Also the cart that came with it was also blue . The game was Tetris. Bought from Dixon's Clapham junction on the day of release.
