Love how all the gameboy color color variations have names like “kiwi” and “atomic purple” but the teal one is just “teal”
Should have called it "tropical Blue" or something like that
They could have pulled an Apple and called it blueberry
Because teal is already a funny word
It’s kinda like Pokémon with every Pokémon having a cool name while the seal Pokémon is just seal
It's lime, not "kiwi"
9:39 push the boundaries you say....
One might even be able to break them if given the right resources...
Nice to see you here!
ha ha ha vary foony
oh god no
idk how to copy so [lenny face here]
I don’t deserve to call myself a game boy collector anymore
EDIT: I take that back - at least I have a Game Boy Light ;D
hi
Winston Burger sup
Hi I subbed you
Jealous
OOF
This is basically Nintendrew flexing on us for 11 minutes, and I'm fine with that.
I don’t care if he’s flexing I’m just interested
DOGE!!!
True
I like it
I am soooooo jelous of u
if you find any local game stores with these old-aged game-boys, let me know. If I'm in the area I'll swoop by like an eagle in the sky
I find almost everything locally! Conventions are a big help, but there's a surprising number of retro game stores in the greater Nashville area. 😄
@Nintendrew hi
Lol didn't know that Sparc mac also liked old games. Still playing Osrs i see xd.
You’re probably not in the Ambler area of Pennsylvania but if you ever are I HIGHLY recommend Classic Game Junkie. They build all theirs from spare parts and they fix your stuff for free if you buy it and something doesn’t work. I bought my GameBoy, GameBoy Color, GameBoy SP and GameBoy Advance there and has amazing service. The sound on by GBA was broken, and they fixed it for free.
Bruh same
The Oracle games definitely seem so underrated in the Zelda series and that's a shame, because they are both AMAZING titles no Zelda fan should miss out on!
First reply
the oracle games are my favorite zelda games and my third favorite games of all time
I bought Oracle of Seasons when it came out on 3DS VC, and quickly bought Oracle of Ages after playing Seasons for a week.
Might be my favorite Zelda games.
I LOOOOVE them, I started Zelda with the GB/C/A ones. I unfortunately dont have the Oracle games in cart form, just in the eShop
Yes. Also welcome back to RUclips, Dave
Right after you talked about the Spongebob GBA, an ad played for the 21 Best Squidward Moments
I got a terrifying ad for some halloween movie
L
why?
-`whσ αѕkєd чσu? It is
Mee too! What a coincidence LOL
Patrick: *raises hand* Is the Game and Watch a Gameboy?
Squidward: No the Game and Watch series arent gameboys
Patrick *raises hand*
Squidward: No the DS isnt a Game Boy either
This is a suprisingly good version of that joke. Heck, I'm also surprised that Patrick, being the idiot that he is, was able to recognize those two as Nintendo handhelds.
*Dsi
@@jeremyaster7470 just because it can play game boy games it isnt a game boy

Jamie Horne lol
2:48 He has the Infinity Gameboys.
@Brett Gallerneault no end game
Gameboy Thanos: Now for sale near you under a bridge!
@The channel with no name they were in both
2:38 Ah yes, my favorite foods: berries, grape, dandelion, teal, and nuclear waste
What about kiwi
@@sackerlacker5399 No one's favorite food is Kiwi. Not even actual Kiwis. Or kiwi birds even.
I want to collect all the Gameboy Colors at some point, that system means a lot to me.
Only have 2 of them currently but I've got the Pikachu SP though. Proud of that one.
The obvious next step is doing a video on the DS family of systems, there's at least 10 different hardware versions in those. (DS, DS Lite, DSi, DSi XL, 3DS, 3DS XL, 2DS, New 3DS, New 3DS XL, New 2DS XL, that I can name off the top of my head.)
You got all of them :)
...
Rinchanlife That’s like saying the gba isn’t a part of the gameboy line because the original can’t play advance games.
Rinchanlife Hm, didn’t know that. The more you know.
Nice collection dude!

His fabulous pompadour.
I like the idea of collecting all the versions of a system, but I’m not that much of a collector so I probably won’t ever complete a collection. I’ll probably buy just my favourite colour.
But your collection is cool.
Yeah same!
I love how, in every episode, I can hear in your voice how much joy you get from talking about whatever the topic is
I'm so in love with Gameboy color, especially the atomic purple one. I'm a 2000s baby but I have always love retro Nintendo consoles and games. I wish I was a 90s kid.
Me too. I was from 2008
I’m 2009. I even missed the DS era. I want a DSI. Or a GBA SP.
The games you selected are some of my favourite games growing up! My first console was a Game Boy Colour, and I still have that old system, and it still works! Wario land and the Zelda Oracle games are some of my favourite games for the Game Boy and Game Boy Colour systems.Thanks for making this video!
Here in Italy (where i live), around 2001, there was an orange Game Boy Color that you could win if you found an S under the cap of a SLAM orange juice bottle. I searched online, but i found nothing except for a guy selling it. There were no photos of the GBC though. I think it's pretty rare...
Edit: I searched a bit more, and i found the original SLAM Pokémon commercial. It also shows that Game Boy Color. It's orange, transparent, and has the SLAM logo on it.
*_CIAO ITALIANOH_*

Wait if you found an s you got one I thought it was a misprint and through it away

For a second I thought this comment was a JoJo reference
There's a SpongeBob skinned GBA SP?

Literally every time I see a notification that there’s a new Nintendrew vid I stop every thing I’m doing for 5-15 minutes😂😅
Dill pickle 765352 same
i know this is old, but great video! i know you've mentioned going only for north-american releases but the game boy light deserved at least a shout out :p
You know, I had an idea for a Game Boy Classic Edition, and I think this Gameboy Classic Edition should have these features:
-Have the same saving features as the NES Classic Edition
-Have a backlit screen while still having the games in black-&-white with green coloring that the console is known for
-Have the model be shaped after the Gameboy Pocket with all different kinds of colors (or get a special original model Gameboy version which costs more, but is a great collectors item)
-Have wireless connectivity to other Gameboys for multiplayer & digital TVs to play the games on it with added color like it's a Super Gameboy
-Have a rechargeable battery that can charge through a USB cable
and these would be the games:
1. Tetris
2. Dr. Mario
3. Super Mario Land
4. Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins
5. Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3
6. Pokemon Red/Blue (you will get one of these randomly)
7. Mario's Picross
8. Operation C
9. Kid Icarus of Myths and Monsters
10. Final Fantasy Adventure
11. Megaman V
12. Wave Race
13. Alleyway
14. Balloon Kid
15. Donkey Kong 94'
16. Donkey Kong Land
17. Baseball
18. Golf
19. Tennis
20. Blades of Steel
21. International Superstar Soccer
22. F-1 Race
23. the Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening
24. Metroid II: the Return of Samus
25. Kid Dracula
26. Gargoyle's Quest
27. Castlevania II: Belmont's Revenge
28. Final Fantasy Legend II
29. Kirby's Dream Land
30. Kirby's Dream Land 2
31. Pinball: Revenge of the Gator
32. Street Fighter II
33. Double Dragon II
34. Ninja Gaiden Shadow
35. Harvest Moon GB
36. Mole Mania
37. Gradius: Interstellar Assault
38. Pacman
39. Kirby's Pinball Land
40. Kirby's Block Ball
do you think that would be good?
Yess
I think you’re forgetting the VIRTUAL BOY, my personal favourite of the game boy line.
Fair enough, but the video was all-encompassing of the Game Boy line, even if the Virtual Boy was more console than handheld. Anyway, it being rarer and all I think would make it more interesting to be shown off.
Sadly it was failed because it was so failed. The red screen made it bad so they can’t see so they don’t do it anymore so it was failed
boi
*MOD DETECTED*
@CyDragonGM WOOOOOOSH
and he has an opinion the virtual boy had really good games

Welp, that whispering worked; followed you on both social media platforms! lol
This was a really fun video; loved seeing all the different versions of these systems, including the store exclusives.
The spongebob one should be called the Sponge Boi
This is an incredible video and extremely informative. Thank you for being you Drew.

Agreed. WarioWare Gold is a fantastic compilation/remake, too.

Both warioware and rhythm heaven are masterpieces
Man I wish I had kept all my gameboys and games, they would be trips back in time, I'd probably remember things about my life.
I love seeing these classic game console collections. I dont have space in my home to have one of these collections so i have built a virtual collection of ROM and ISO files to run on emulators on my PC to save space and not worry about physical damage. Its nice to boot up the old games especially SNES games (my first childhood console) and keep as many as I want on a harddrive. I bought a micro PC that plugs into my TV and I have all my games sync over the cloud so I can pick up a controller and play on the couch or at my desk or on my laptop.
I bought the SpongeBob one a few years back because I found it for what I believe to be a reasonable enough deal for a 101. Unfortunately, I regret a bit that I didn't hold out for the graphite model. It's the superior color scheme of all the 101s.
that is the 101 model i have, the graphite.
Pajama Sam Yes the gameboy
Wasn't the "SpongeBob" GBA model released around the time that Paramount and Nickelodeon released "The SpongeBob Squarepants Movie" was out in theaters in 2004?
Fire Dust yeah probably
What a great collection :-) I have the mirinda gameboy color which was only in mexico, south america and Czech Republic (my country). It's very rare and sells for 250$
good do u want a cookie
Yum
Would you sell that for 1 million pennies?
Thank you so much for this! I just started collecting game boys and other nintendo handhelds and your guide helped a lot! I only have the original, so still a long way to go.
Wow...
The Nostalgia and memories coming back...
Thank mate!
1:00 You got me at "sick Nintendo memes".
Another amazing video, Drew! I have been loving your videos for around 2 years now! I have a Pokemon themed Gameboy Colour! Biggest Australian fan!
Edit: YAY A HEART! Can you do a video on your favourite Zelda Games you own (I've been waiting for a year!)
OOOH THANKS A HEART!

I have to say your game room is beautiful, set out really well it looks amazing. I’m just starting my room can’t wait for it to be finished
I really love classic Nintendo handhelds. Keep up the good work Nintendrew.
I thought I only wanted one of each Gameboy model when I started collecting, but after watching this I’m so tempted to go after all the colours too lol 😆 amazing collection!

I finished Yoshi's Island for the GBA around a week ago. Great game to say the least
Spooking I’m still working on that game!
I think its pretty good but not perfect
I finished it but then a few weeks later my save data was lost
@@OrangeKite3434 unfortunate xd
Nice handheld collection. I've some JP GBAs that I'm sure you'll get eventually. I have the AGB Rockman GBA, a CIB Suicune GBA and 2 CIB Celebi GBAs. They are so beautiful man. You need them ASAP!
Great collection, dude. Thank you for sharing
Thank you for watching!
I go for specific limited editions when collecting instead of just having as many colors and such, but this is an impressive collection
You know, I find it really interesting that there was a backlit gameboy in 1998, and yet none of the new versions were backlit until the GBASP, 5 years later. And even then it wasn't for another 2 years before they were truly backlit.
I actually prefer the original front lit GBA SP, because I can turn the light off to save battery, rather than just dim it, and because I can play it outside in the sun. Because the 101 is back lit, it just glares and makes it hard to see.
Wow, what a coincidence. I just bought my first game boy advance today, the same day you dropped the vid. *cough cough* it's in onyx *COUGH*
More and more memes are slowly trickling into your videos...
Patrick: Does Gameboy Require TV.
Squidward:Gameboy does not require TV.

Nintendrew is underrated
And also produces not enough content
Nintendrew: *mentions GBA SP*
Me: *WANT FOR A GBA INCREASES TO 100%*
I always thought the transparent original gameboy looked terrible
Andres Jalil I agree
WarioWare was my CHILDHOOD. I tried to get my hands on it again recently, but thr USPS only said it was "accepted" for 2 weeks after I ordered it. Seller gave me a refund but I'm still pissed.
Yo, that's a frickin'🔥sweet collection...🤘🏼💯✔️
I had the original and clear Gameboy. Among my fondest memories was having to share the original Gameboy with my cousins in Puerto Rico (that, and the fact the screen burned,) and aside from buying the clear Gameboy bringing the system with the case to Puerto Rico (which was the last time I saw my grandparents,) and bringing the system with me regularly to school. I briefly had a red Gameboy Advance SP, sold it, and now, I have a modded NES schemed model. The interior is actually of the 101 model. Recently, I ordered a teal Gameboy Color to go with the Singer Izek.
This makes me wish I hadn't gotten ride of my SP
3:41 Hey, that's me!
My favorite gameboy advance game was mario and luigi superstar saga
Yeah I love that game
It's been remade with new stuff
This is a video I can watch over and over again
I'm a huge Game Boy fan, and my collection includes a gold game boy pocket, a new Japanese game boy micro, and complete copies (box and manual) of Final Fantasy legend 1-3, FF Adventure, Zelda Minish Cap, Metroid Fusion and Zero Mission, and sealed copies of the original Dragon's Lair and Donkey Kong Country 2.
Your missing the Gameboy Color : Tommy Hilfiger Edition
Isn't that one like too bucks lol
Patrick: is a Gameboy a Nintendo home console
Squidward: no a Gameboy is not a Nintendo home console
Patrick: hand raised
Squidward: the DS is not a Nintendo home console either
Patrick: Is Spongebob a Gameboy Advance?
Squidward: No Patrick, well actually yes, Spongebob is a Gameboy Advance
5:50 Hey, I have that one!
I wish i had it :(
I always thought it looked like some kid put stickers on it
I have one too and the volume doesnt work
I have the Ice Blue edition, it was a gift from my father, he bought it in a store called "Contino" here in México.

Hey nintendrew, great collection, though i have one similar to you, the yellow face, blue back 'pokemon gameboy colour' , it has pikachu left bottom corner of screen though mine has meowith in the bottom right corner of the screen, with jigglypuff above him.....where dose this gameboy sit in the scale of rareities?
I want the Spongebob limited edition GBA SP D:
I just don't know where to get it...
(I live in Switzerland, so everything is way harder to get)
But at least you won't get oofed in ww3
ル ドイ カ try finding one online
Ebay(United States) has it, but it’s quite expensive.
Get a gba and get the SpongeBob shell and change it
I found one used on mercari for 25 bucks
I recently started looking for original Game boys. I hope I can have a collection like yours some day.
I want his collection. Seriously need to see his entire collection.
“Don’t tell anybody but wario land is my favourite out of the other 2”
*well you just told over 1000 people sooo*
I have a original gameboy, gameboy advance sp ags 001, and a gameboy micro famicom version
Yooooo you got enough gbas for Final Fantasy crystal chronicles!
Now he needs all the cables for em, good luck with that.
Get 4 link cables, 4 Tetris carts and the 4player thing
My game boy may not be modded or be in the best condition, but it was the first console that I can call my own so I will always love it.
I have the pink game boy advance. I had one as a kid but my sister stole it and sold it. So my bf got me one off eBay. 😍 best gift ever! It’s What started my handheld console collection obsession. So happy I have one again.
Drew,
If I'm not mistaking, there was an orange and lime green GBA SP that had something to do with Shrek or something like that. Please let me know.
When you play Shrek the movie on it, bam Shrek combo
Yes, that is correct.

I still have my old dandelion colored Game Boy Color. My mother bought it for me for Christmas in the year it was released. 😊
Even 20 years later, I keep stumbling on variants I had no idea existed. Like last year, I stumbled on the Target GBA, the red one with the Target logo on top. I never knew Target had an exclusive Gameboy Advance model.
tribal tattoo decals. haha. i think he means tribal decals
I had a Spyro attack of the rhynocks gba cobalt edition and I wanted to see if it was any good
I actually have one of the 001 GBA SP models.
I have a AGS 101
I found it on da bus with Mario world
YoshBros kinda sucks You FOUND a gba? That’s insane
I am so jelly now. I saw half of those old consoles at conventions and that one retro videogame shop at The Shops at Wiregrass. My mom owned that old brick Gameboy and Teris was her addiction and my dad had a teal Gameboy Color and taught me how to play Space Invaders on it. I then got my first Gameboy Advance then my Gameboy SP which was red, then upgraded to a Nintendo DS, then came the DS Lite, then DSi, 3DS and now 3DS XL. I've played a lot of videogames over the years. My one regret was not keeping them each time a new console came out and begged my mom to let me go to the nearest GameStop or EB Games to trade them in for the new console.
My mom got items from a shop that had clothes and other items that no one wanted. My mom had put them in her truck and brought them home. Lots of people came to take the clothes. They asked her how much she sold the clothes for. She said that it was all free. In one of the bags of clothes, she found a bag.
That bag had a 1989 version Game Boy with some games. My cousin drowned the it so my aunt threw it away. This was before the “silica gel hack” or the “rice hack” that almost everyone talks about.
I got the see through purple game boy color for Christmas and was told that it was the last purple Game Boy Color that store had. I played with it a lot until we had to put it in storage.
9:28 Looks like I'm playing on Virtural Boy.
Virtual boy color
I use to have the glacier Gameboy advance but got stolen :/
i found a gameboy light on amozon for $130.00
What that's a rip off
Yoshi‘s Island SMA3 was my very first video game. I played it on a GBA during my holidays in America, I only watched the intro over and over again because for the 3 year old me the game itself was too difficult for me xD
5:01 - if you are using a flashcart, you actually can play gb/gbc games on your gameboy micro :)!
