BenHeck Weekly Poll #1: Best Game Boy

Post by **Gamelver** » Wed Apr 26, 2006 6:13 pm

eh, GBA SP plays ALL the games, so that's why I choose it....My favorite, in terms of memories and what not, is, of course, the GBO. I never actually owned it, but my baby sitter had a green one with mario...ah, good times...I remember playing that all the time when she had to take me and my brother somewhere....But now, if I had to take one, I'd take the GBA SP, with the better screen obviously. I only have the crappier screen one, but oh well, it plays the games fine.

GBC was my first GB and it was lime and I loved it, then got a GBA a year later was better and loved the shape, got a SP and it is lime so its an advanced color

The brighter screens do nothing for me, its like the VB shooting red into my eyes but its white(so now I see pink

).

GBO. The portable system that started it all. It was a small, grey brick like devise. IT had a black and white screen. It looked like crap compared to the gamegear's color screen. It had worse hardware functions. BUt it was cheaper, had better games, and better battery life. It set the precedents of future portables and continued inovation to this day.
Oh, have anybody seen this before? I'm a chiptunes freak, so I wanna get one of these things, or something like it, if anyone knows anything better or cheaper.

The gameboy pocket is the best because it is so small and squarish and old skool looking. It is smaller than the GBC and it even has a bigger screen! I also like the old skool graphics and what not. Game Boy Pocket all the way.

Speaking of Game Boy, has anyone seen the latest GB Micro ad? I've got it right here: http://youtube.com/watch?v=US7aSpocDFM& ... ro%20mouse

You know, I've been thinking about it and just about anything was better than the GBO. I mean, just look at the size of the thing!

tis a toughie

GBA would have my vote if only it were backlight
*cringes at crazy angles atttempting to find light*

Pocket was quality but in the ned it has to go to the SP, i dont really mind which

Trust me I am

. I vote GBC too, the combination of great games, backwards compatibility, a color screen and the iconic portrait-configuration make it absoultely classic for me.

The GB pocket is the best because it was my first gameboy
but then it got stolen so i had to get a GB Color because they didnt sell GB pockets anymore
I liked how the power switch was on the top and i liked thats the back was flat unlike the GBC which has that weird hump on it

GBC was awesome. I still love my GBA though.... I vote GBC in most improved. (I didn't own many games for it though.)

i like the game boy color because it the games are addicting like non stop playing for hours till the battery dies. The graaphics on the other hand are no the greatest but its good

GBA because it introduced gba games, sp is too small, but if it was up there i would choose NDS

The DS was NOT a Game Boy. It was a handheld but was explicitly not a part of the GB line...

Post by **Gamelver** » Sat Apr 29, 2006 11:26 am

and since it doesn't play GBC or GB games, I wouldn't want it, because that rules out 3 amazing Zelda games right there...
