On Ebay, I've seen purple selling for $120-200 and blue for about $12. Purple is also generally referred to as rare in listings.

Japanese people love to keep the box. I live in Japan and have been surprised when I order something older and it shows up in box.

@gabejva6071 7 лет назад

Playing multiplayer infrared Tetris with my wife on a couple of these is one of my fondest gaming memories. I love this device, thank you for showing it some love!

Another great video Colin! I really didn't know much about this console. Really interesting stuff

@davidc7763 7 лет назад

Pokemon Tetris is great by the way. It uses the shock sensor to allow you to mirror your tetris piece. It was only released in JP and EU though

@cesar122111 7 лет назад

Hey Colin, i strongly believe the Japanese games never had the type of Factory seals as in America (talking about the continent), japanese stores often put a plastic wrap to prevent more wear to the old boxes

I got the Chikorita green one back in the day from the Pokemon Center! :) Since then, I've amassed quite a nice Pokemon Mini collection including Togepi's Adventure and Pichu Bros Mini in the box

@PocketUau 7 лет назад

Found my old pokemini in its box and I thought it yellowed. After looking it up I now see a resurge in popularity for it haha

@disruptityourself 7 лет назад

The speaker is a piezo so not really a speaker. Piezos are used as both output and input which makes them pretty interesting.

@AdvancePlays 6 лет назад

Disrupt It Yourself "Piezoelectric" just refers to the interaction between electricity and mechanical stress. Piezo inputs and piezo outputs are different electrical components and cant just interchanged.

I've got one of the flash carts too - English Togepi's Adventure is Pokemon Mini nirvana 🤓

@dreammfyre 7 лет назад

Is Super Potato still kind of "eh", or did it actually recover? I remember reading some articles a while back how Japanese retro game stores(including the aforementioned) have dried up significantly the last 5 years or so...

@Fattydeposit 7 лет назад

A Roadie You have to go outside of the big cities to find more gems and for cheaper (non-tourist) prices. Super Potato in Akhibara isn't what it once was but it was still packed floor to ceiling with all kinds of great stuff about six months ago - though it didn't have the items I was after. I did see severe stacks of Supergrafx consoles which is the kind of thing I know for a fact I'll never see again unless I make a return visit.

@michaelaranda5220 7 лет назад

This thing has some features the Game Boy variations did not have. Interesting.

@Firing_Order 7 лет назад

Michael Aranda Well, yeah obviously when you take into consideration this thing launched late 2001.

I always really wanted a Pokémon mini, it's so cute and looks like an even more pocket sized Gameboy Pocket. ^_^ are you going to show off some games, sometime?

Is this like a prototype for the "gameboy mini" or whatever handheld classic they end up making?

@RetroPacman 7 лет назад

Never even heard of it. Looks cool though. I may have to start looking for one. An import from Japan would be the way to go I think.

Interesting device, but it does not add anything to the main series titles for pokemon, there is another interesting device that shipped with pokemon heartgold and soulsilver, and that is the pokewalker.

@refraggedbean 7 лет назад

I would have bought the purple one if I knew about it when it launched (I was distracted with the GC, I also did not keep up with gaming news as much at the time)

@magreger 7 лет назад

Colin, what's your favorite release of Tetris? Mine has got to be Tetris DX for Gameboy. I've tried other releases only to find that the mechanics aren't as tight, especially when it comes to the tetrahedrans locking into place. I'd be interested to hear your thoughts.

@ThisDoesNotCompute 7 лет назад

Some people love to hate it, but I have fond memories of Tetris Worlds on the GBA. Mostly for Cascade mode, I really like trying to build up big chain reactions.

@Miner-hz7vi 4 года назад

Turn it on!!!!!!!

@100PercentEarl 7 лет назад

can i ask what game store you're referring to in Minneapolis at 3:08? I saw the amiibos I'm interested in what kind of amiibos they have

@Quiberey 7 лет назад

It might be Heroic Goods and Games. They are the only other store, besides mine, that uses those specific price stickers, at least to my knowledge anyway. I've never spoke with the guy that runs it but he seems to be a good guy so I would check his place out.

@ThisDoesNotCompute 7 лет назад
