My Game Boy Collection - Collector's Guide + Favorite Games! | Nintendrew 

Love how all the gameboy color color variations have names like “kiwi” and “atomic purple” but the teal one is just “teal”

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

2:48 He has the Infinity Gameboys.

This is basically Nintendrew flexing on us for 11 minutes, and I'm fine with that.

9:39 push the boundaries you say....

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

2:38 Ah yes, my favorite foods: berries, grape, dandelion, teal, and nuclear waste

How many games and consoles you have? Nintendrew: Yes

Right after you talked about the Spongebob GBA, an ad played for the 21 Best Squidward Moments

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!

The Background Nintendo Music makes me think I'm actually playing some game and makes me think I have to press A to continue making Drew Talk 😂

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!

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

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 spongebob one should be called the Sponge Boi

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.

Nice collection dude!

The best part of Drew's videos? His fabulous pompadour.

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.

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

There's a SpongeBob skinned GBA SP? I. NEED. IIIIIIIIIIIT!!!!

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.

Wow... The Nostalgia and memories coming back... Thank mate!

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.

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.)

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.

1:07 my gosh that was beautiful

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?

I think you’re forgetting the VIRTUAL BOY, my personal favourite of the game boy line.

👏𝓟𝓻𝓮𝓶𝓲𝓾𝓶 𝓙𝓸𝓴𝓮👏

I go for specific limited editions when collecting instead of just having as many colors and such, but this is an impressive collection

I never thought that I would be getting flexed on while learning at the same time....

I love how, in every episode, I can hear in your voice how much joy you get from talking about whatever the topic is

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.

I have the Ice Blue edition, it was a gift from my father, he bought it in a store called "Contino" here in México.

I always thought the transparent original gameboy looked terrible

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😂😅

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$

I recently started looking for original Game boys. I hope I can have a collection like yours some day.

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.

I have the grape gameboy color :D Wooooaah a heart thanks!

HELL YEAH WARIOWARE MY DUDE

This makes me wish I hadn't gotten ride of my SP

This is a video I can watch over and over again

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.

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?

just got myself a flame red sp and im in love no wonder you got em all

(new gameboy video) *WISH FOR GAMEBOY RATE RISES TO 100%*

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!

I want his collection. Seriously need to see his entire collection.

The background music is from Mario E Luigi superstar saga for gba and 3DS when you enter a fight that music plays

I accidentally had my volume on max so I heard an earapey music and "*HeY GUyS NinTeNdREW hErE*"

I finished Yoshi's Island for the GBA around a week ago. Great game to say the least

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.

My favorite gameboy advance game was mario and luigi superstar saga

Great collection, dude. Thank you for sharing

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.

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.

Thanks for talking about the Game Boy Advance SP, apparently I have an older model, didn't know that til' now.

I really love classic Nintendo handhelds. Keep up the good work Nintendrew.

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!)

The Gameboy Advanced Sp in pearl blue was the first to introduce me to video games in the 2000s.

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.

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!

1:00 You got me at "sick Nintendo memes".

I'm hoping to build up my own UK set of gameboy consoles. Thanks for the inspiration nintendrew

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.

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...

g a m e b o y i s A B O I

When you went through the gameboy advances it made me smile bringing Back memories of when I was a little kid! Especially when you showed the platinum which was the one I had, made me smile even more!!! I remember playing it, where I played it, how I felt played it, etc ☺️ the sp bought back memories too, the micro bought back memories as well but it bought back bad memories since I really wanted it but I never got one 😭

Great vid!

5:50 Hey, I have that one!

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.

I have a original blue gameboy advance and a teal gameboy color that my older cousins played as a kid. It came in a black bag that had Pokemon Red and both Gold and Silver in it. They also had a copy of Sonic & Knuckles that I got to keep.

Nintendrew: *mentions GBA SP* Me: *WANT FOR A GBA INCREASES TO 100%*

I really just want to collect all of my child hood devices I don’t have anymore

This video makes me want more gameboys even more but my local retro video game store closed a couple months ago.

First video I've watched of yours! Subscriber now!

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?

Your missing the Gameboy Color : Tommy Hilfiger Edition

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

I have access to two launch sp's. At my mom's place as she claims both are hers although I used one primarily through my childhood. Basically untouched for years but i got them out last week when i visited. Red one has scratches on the top middle section and the black one is practically mint condition. Both got the original charge cables, with 2 harvest moons, and one super mario 3. Somewhere there is a hotwheels game and a spongebob one floating around somewhere

I recently bought the pink gba!

I had a Spyro attack of the rhynocks gba cobalt edition and I wanted to see if it was any good

Wow I new you where a Nintendo fan but I didn't know you where this much as a fan?!😀

I remember having the Original Game Boy...and Green One and theme it is in is called "Play It Loud" and the Game Boy Advance Arctic White

3:41 Hey, that's me!

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)

After watching this video I reached under my desk to check my Gameboys and whatnot, and unbeknownst to me...There was a Silver Gameboy Light in among my other consoles. Never knew it was a Japan exclusive! Putting it up for safekeeping now.

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.

Yooooo you got enough gbas for Final Fantasy crystal chronicles!

I have a original gameboy, gameboy advance sp ags 001, and a gameboy micro famicom version

It’s nice to see I’m not the only one with a fuchsia gba

I love your videos and all those consoles just wants to make me play all of them

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.

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

the trible was for real cool and had a amazing color

Thanks for the tip. I been looking at a Gameboy SP for retro gaming. I did not know about the AGS-101 having a better screen.

Okay... so I've heard Earthbound music in da background alot, so when do you plan on doing a playthrough on it?
