    The GBC was my first console (I had the green one), I feel so much nostalgia seeing these!

    But the price is far to high for my little pockets.

        At $249, you can get an SP, reshell it, stick an upgraded screen in it, and buy an EZflash Omega + micro SD card.

    I’m just here to spread contempt for companies that rely on manipulative business tactics to function and encourage people not to buy one for that reason alone.

        Analogue continuously limits production and comes out with all these higher priced “limited edition” versions to try to drive up sales and create a false sense of scarcity for their products. It’s a pretty scummy business tactic.
