  • I've always wanted a GameBoy Micro, so I finally decided to buy a used one (from eBay)! Like many retro consoles, the GameBoy Micro is now more expensive than when it came out. I paid $200 for a used console, while it cost $100 new back in 2005. Check out the video to see how the console turned out!

    Underrated handheld imo, it had a much better screen which means better backlights. So many changeable faceplates which made it very stylish, and the buttons feel so good. I have the famicom one with the box. It got me into gba collecting lol.

    When they are new they come with a little plastic 2 tab key tool to take the face plate off with if u pull on and off you brake the little tabs. There is 2 little holes on the left side of the unit that it gos in. Nintendo dont really explain it well so not many people know

    it hurts to see you struggle to put on the faceplates... slide in the right side first then the left side pops in. it doesnt pull off. if you just pull it off you will break the clips on the left side. hope this helps but man...look it up at least. i aint hatin but cmon man, those things aint cheap

    My friend had one of these and let me borrow it. I played Pokémon Sapphire in school for a week and didn’t get caught. One of the best experiences, but now that I’m an adult, I think this is a novelty. My hands would cramp up too much from regular play.
