I love that Elliot got these things, because you know they're going to get treated with the proper love & care they deserve. That lanyard at the end is adorable.

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 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. :)

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 😂

@Safbmj 11 ай бұрын

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.

Pokémon Green was localized in English as Pokémon Blue. Meaning that, aside from the cover art and title screen, the games are identical. The game that is actually exclusive to Japan is the later released Japanese version of Pokémon Blue. #TheMoreYouKnow

@itsybitsyjoltik 9 ай бұрын

The Red and Blue versions of Pokemon released outside of Japan are honestly in an interesting position in relation to the Japanese games because they’re not entirely the same as Japanese Red and Green or Japanese Blue-as I recall, they keep the original version exclusive Pokemon from Red and Green, but they included the updates from Blue such as the (somewhat less ugly) updated sprites and updated music. Also bug fixes because as buggy as the international release was, Japanese Red/Green are somehow even more broken.
