I remember saving for months to get one of these when I was six. Can't even say how happy it made me to relive the unboxing one more time.

Christmas morning of 1999. I unwrapped the same green Gameboy Color along with Pokemon Yellow. I'll never forget how happy I was that day. Even just seeing this shade of green makes me a little nostalgic sometimes.

Game Boy Color manual ironically not in color.

One of his old teachers watch this. then they're like: THEY DID WHAT!?

Probably haven't seen a KZfaqr become so emotionally happy in a video as much as you did. I feel so happy for you Austin! You can tell that he really had a genuinely fun and exciting time unboxing this. Glad things are working out for you Austin!

I can see many collectors rage that you unbox a gameboy that's brandnew, but why keep it in its box forever? Its made to play games!

I know I'll sound like an old grandpa but this is so much more beautiful than today's smartphones as gaming devices. The green shade is absolutely stunning.

HOW CAN A GAMEBOY SURVIVE A BOMB BUT NOT A FIRE?

Holy nostalgia. My only handheld gaming device was the SP. Definitely brought me back to the playground with my friends. Well done!

I never got a gameboy new ... this was so fun to watch. Such great nostalgia!

Man these colorful gameboy colors are too nostalgic. Now that's what you call "Taste the rainbow... Play the rainbow!"

Game boy is a perfect name for a portable console

Take out that xbox one controller in the back and put up the box in its place! :)

*The feels Austin. The feels.* Love this type of thing, really brings me back haha.

I saw a lot of unboxings, A LOT. Samsung Galaxy s7 edge, iPhone 6S plus, ps4, xBox One, $5000 computers, ultrawide high resolution curved g-sync gaming ips monitors, etc. But, never, NEVER I was that much excited about an unboxing. I'm too young to had a GameBoy when I was a child, and I'll love to have a new one just like Austin :D

WOW! I was maybe 6 or 7 years old with a gameboy and I miss it so much! I would take it everywhere and play Pokemon! It made me so happy and seeing this brings me much joy! I'm considering buying one as well. Thank you so much for sharing this video.

Alright Gameboy, your prison sentence is done

I'm really curious on how much you bought that for?

Nintendo needs to stop making DS and start bringing back the GameBoy for this generation. A GB that is more powerful than the psvita.

Austin : I lost my intire Gameboy collection Me : oh hey nice Gameboy Advance in the background

27. February 2000 A young Norwegian boy with a glimmer in his eye and song in his heart receives a colourful present from his mother. He tears off the stupid paper and marvel at the beauty. "DET ER EN GAMEBOY COLOR!!!" The excitement is almost too much to bear. He opens up the box and pulls out the glorious artifact. It's perfect. It has purple transparent plastic, the edges are smooth, the buttons are easy on the thumbs. But best of all, it's his. Not only that, along with his new game system there is a cartridge with TRANSPARENT PLASTIC that says "Super Mario Bros. Deluxe". With a smile on his face, the little boy inserts the cartridge, pushed the slidey-thing on the side. And so it began.

The older days were much simpler I see. 2000: Kids playing Pokemon, having fun on Mario Kart, etc. 2015: Kids posting on snapchat, facebok, instagram, etc. My friends and I still keep the Nintendo age alive for our school. We just won't give up on them, because they are the best to us! I wish I had one of these, it'd finish my collection.

Such a beautiful design. It never ceases to impress me.

in 2024 this video is extremely valuable information in seeing exactly how Nintendo originally packed these and what inserts came with it. That stuff has become a big part of resale value in today's market.

This brought tears to my eyes...literally... made me think back to when I was a kid and my WHOLE Christmas was this single present! I was so excited and happy to get this.... I don't ever think about that day but this video definitely brought back memories...thanks for that Austin Evans

this made me dig mine out and jam some pokemon red .

Seeing this unboxing sparks a crazy sense of nostalgia. Gosh the first gaming device I ever had as my very own!

This is handheld gaming at its finest. Bringing this to school back in the day trading, battling everyone and also showing people where to find stuff on the Pokemon games, especially Gold and Silver, they were really popular. I remember fondly when I was the only person with Dragonite because Dratini was so shit, I don't think anyone had the patience to Level him up and evolve him to Dragonair. Once you evolved Dratini, the hard part was finished. Some guy traded me a Mewtwo for a level 80 Azumarill. I was the first to find Tyrogue and showed everyone where he was. Everyone thought Crobat was obtained through trading Golbat. The struggle of trading the likes of Kadabra, Machoke, Graveller, Scyther, Onix and having to trade them back! The myth of the evolving Raichu. God those were the days! I played them so much I can still name all Pokemon in the first two generations!! Take me back! I don't want to be a grown up peoples anymore!

I think you had more "wows" than a typical UnboxTherapy video.

nintendo needs to restart making game boys =]

i wasn’t even born when the game boy color came out and i didn’t have one when i was younger and it feels nostalgic watching this

You can call this a blast from the past

for a second i thought the batteries were fire works

Proof that it was better before... What do kids have theses days? Smartphones? Pfft... the Gameboy was actually good, because it had great games that were fun, instead of today's cheap-o games that are just plain stupid. Great video.

Videos like this are so refreshing because not everyone has one.

Finally,a theme and everything i need for a video.Perfect video.

I remember I had the transparent Purple Game boy how I loved that thing.

Nintendo 64 club anyone? c:

My first Austin Evans video that i watched

I will never forget getting my Gameboy Color 20 years ago, first Nintendo product I ever owned! So much nostalgia.

Great video Austin! I didn't even have a Gameboy color growing up, but you did such a great job of capturing the moment I almost felt like I got one myself. I could feel your excitement. That was great stuff, man.

Man, I sure wish I was born back in the day. (I'm 13). My uncle said his friends would trade Pokemon in recess and trade games.. Now all we do at school is sneak Snapchats to each other. :( sigh.

Gameboy colors will always be one of the most memorable gameboys!! Great video!

Brings back so many memories. My mom actually bought one for me and surprised me with it, I never knew how much she loved me as a child. I regret not appreciating her enough growing up, but mom I love you and thank you for everything you have done for me.

Put this in a glass container like your old iPod from the fire.

im gonna go buy a Nintendo 3Ds and save it for 15 years and then sell it for $10000

Got out my old GB Color "Grape", I bought it new around 98. It is in such perfect shape with everything still there (except batteries), that if I still had those original batteries you'd never know it wasn't sealed new. Not a scratch or fade on it. I even managed to keep the factory seal intact! I trashed so many things as a kid, I'm glad that at some point I finally started cherishing what I had, and taking immaculate care of my stuff. lol ....I'm off to finally finishing that Zelda Links Awakening game I started like 17 years ago. Haha....

Fun fact: Each letter of the word COLOR represents the actual colors of one of the GBCs. C- Red O- Blue L- Green (what you have) O- Yellow R- Dark Green

never seen a dude so excited for a game boy color ..:)

Guilty! I remember sneaking Game Boy into school! When the pocket, and the color came out I was SOO happy about it!

One word: WHOLESOME

nostalgia here we come.

I actually was in the expectancy during the whole video for him to turn the game boy on and play some stuff on it =(

austin im so sorry for your loss, your collection was so big.

I have such a soft spot for the Gameboy Colour, it’s such a gorgeous system

That's the exact color I had growing up.

I have a dark green color that I traded a Beyblade for back in 2nd grade lol

Just got me a "like new" game boy color myself. Haven't touched one in like 15 years. Been playing game and watch gallery 3. I had the second one when I was younger and now after all these years I can play the third one. Such a fun little system.

Bro I’m so happy for you. I remember my unboxing it was epic. I begged my mom for a gameboy on my bday and she said NO there’s no money for games! So I was bummed out and my mom told me “why don’t you go take a nap and we will go out to eat later for your bday” I went to my room all sad and depressed, layed on the pillow and there was something hard underneath it. I removed the pillow from the way and vuala! A brand new gameboy with 3 games and a huge pack of AA batteries, I want to re- live that feeling someday....

Wow, what an incredibly advanced piece of technology! I can't believe Austin got something so new and powerful just like that! The Galaxy S5 is no match for this powerful machine.

SO HIGH TECH OMG. 1337mhz processor?

Beautiful!! I never had a GBC and i remember see it in a showcase for sale when i was 13 or 14 years old! Now i'm 32

Your happiness feel contagious, by the way, nice t-shirt to make this unboxing

I have a kiwi gbc that was mint no scratches, no dents, the labels are still perfect, everything and as I was getting out of my car today it fell out of my pocket on the concrete drive way and got some dinks in it nothing bad or even noticeable but it's not perfect anymore like it was 😪

I'm getting the limited edition yellow Pokemon Game Boy Color for Christmas!

I remember playing the original non-color gameboy for hours and hours EVERY SINGLE DAY and for that years Christmas I asked for a gameboy color. Every year I would find all my presents before Christmas no matter where my parents hid them. I wanted that gameboy so bad but after searching through all my presents it wasn't there and I felt sad. So when Christmas came around and after opening some presents I found a box I didn't recognize. So I went straight for it and you can imagine how happy I was when I tore back that wrapping paper and saw the atomic purple gameboy color I wanted more than anything in the world! I didn't even want to open the rest of my gifts. I just started playing it. That is the best Christmas I've ever had! I think I might buy one just to play it again and put on a shelf so I can see it everyday.

I still have my turquoise gameboy that turns 19 years old this Christmas. I had given it up for broken but I still kept it as a reminder and relic. Today I managed to get it to power on and damn near cried. I’ll be rebuying Pokémon blue for it and taking a huge step back in time.

if you play this video backwards, it will be about a guy boxing his GameBoy. -10/10

the nerdgasm in the video is so real

This is just an awesome, cool, and exciting video. I would be like Austin if I were unboxing this. Keep making these awesome videos Austin!!!

I wish I could relive the moment I opened up my Gameboy Color kiwi green at the age of 11. One of the best gifts I ever got. Thank you mom, RIP.

I know the feeling! i managed to track down a factory sealed atomic purple GBC at a flea market for about 70$ i had my original stolen ages ago, i was so happy!

here we've got the game boy color manual... in black and white

nostalgia itch has been scratched, arigathanks austin

that shade of green brings back so many memories.

you look like that kid in my class that's always getting into my business and reporting me...

WHY DID YOU OPEN THE BOX?!?!!?!?!?!?!?

Wow Austin what a great unboxing Also like your shirt its INTERESTING

I been taking a trip down memory lane on youtube all day. Finally found my gameboy color, and still wish I had the lime green one. 😂. The good times

i got a game boy advance SP when I was 9, in 2005

omg I thought he was gonna cry XP

I wasn't around when the game boy color was out, but I still grew up with one.

Happy 20th Birthday Game Boy Color

Is that hole on the side place to plug in your HDMI cable so you can project your Game Boy screen on the plasma 50 inch TV and enjoy in 4K resolution?

Why did you open it omg

ahhhhh, the beautiful lime green color. One thing that i have always wanted.

I had this exact Gamenoy Color when I was a kid. Still own it, although the battery cover broke ad got lost a long time ago. This is just amazing to see, a brand new one.

$400 down the drain

Yea I still break out the old Teal Gameboy Color and play Pokemon Blue or Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages for the nostalgic sentimental feeling it gives me. I still have the attachable light for it too!

I got a green game boy color for Christmas in like 1999, it's still my favorite Christmas present I've ever gotten

hell yeah, gran turismo in the background!

Where can I buy this unboxed??

you just destroyed an acient artifact

I FELL HAPPY FOR YOU

My first Gameboy was the clear purple one... I miss it so bad. I also had the yellow Pikachu one. Those were such memorable days.

Where would you buy one of these for cheap I looked at eBay but where else

0:40 when your old teachers watch this: THEY DID WHAT?? HOW DARE THEY SNEAK THIS TO SCHOOl. XD

I remember when my dad bought the same GBC (green) for me.. it was 17~ years ago... I still have it but it doesn't work anymore :( So much memories... thank you for this video.

Love watching Logic open his Game Boy Color

Was as excited as you to open mine when I was 9 100% serious. Ps 1998-2014 15 years? Uwotm8? Lol anyone who didn't choose charmander as first Pokemon, just lol
