Game Boy Color - Atomic Purple (Renewed)

Love it

Purchased for a birthday gift, the sound was so nostalgic when my husband and brother in law turned it on! So fun! So worth it and a great throwback for a game lover!

It is the original Game Boy. The one I had when I was a kid. I play it every day. I love it.

Ordered the Atomic Purple Game Boy Color and they sent me the solid purple one instead and it also won’t play games. (I tested the GBC cartridge I had with a GBA first to confirm it worked and then tried it on the GBC and it doesn’t work. Initiating a return because of this. If they want to send me the correct color that I ordered, they can do that, but please also ensure that it works too.

Reading most of the reviews here and was hoping I would be lucky overall.... The screen and case are the only things that are in excellent condition and really does look almost new. However, there is some issue with the audio as if you turn up the volume high, you do hear a feedback noise and the speak audio is not as loud as I remember. Even if you use a headphone jack, that feedback noise remains but if you put the audio mid-range it's not bad to bear. Also, one of the battery springs is clearly not cleaned, and there is also dirt or residue inside the case. I know it's an old device, but was hoping it was truly cleaned and in Excellent condition as described. I'm still happy with it and it brings back memories, but I would give it a 5 rating if it wasn't dirty on the inside. (Yes, it does work and the game has no issues playing lol)

The buttons look liked they have been chewed off but with that being said it works just a little disappointed about the buttons not really worth the price I paid

Brings back so many good memories product came in great condition works just like it did back in the day

The screen looks brand new and works fine so far. I’m actually impressed with the quality.
