Got back home from University yesterday so today i decided to take a bunch of pictures of my collection all in one place, huge wall of photos incoming! (sorry about some of the blurry pictures, was using my phone)
Firstly my main focus, Gameboy Pocket Consoles.
Still waiting on a extreme green console to arrive from America and i have a few doubles which i'm not too sure what i'm going to do with, i really like the Japanese boxes so i might just keep them! Hopefully going for a full collection, mainly rare and expensive Japanese limited editions to go now.
Here is what the big box Japanese consoles look like inside the cardboard, i believe there was only gold and silver versions released like this.(Gold left, Silver right, hard to tell with the light)
Next is Gameboy Color consoles, got the base colors and a few other rarer consoles. Not really sure how far i will take this collection but will probably go for some of the Pokemon consoles and a few of the awesome dual colored ones released in japan.
My only gameboy light, unboxed and with annoying hard stickers which i can't figure how to remove without scratching the console. Shame it's unboxed but it's a awesome color and was pretty cheap.
A couple of original DMG consoles, i might go for a unboxed set of colors as getting them boxed is a nightmare and expensive. The Play It Loud series mainly came in plastic boxed with paper inserts like the Japanese GBP above but now most are missing the inserts.
Now the last of the console collections, GBA SP, sold my GBA consoles as i had no real affinity for them! I will probably go for GBA SP after GBP as there has some many cool editions and the console itself is great. Just a shame they scratch so easy!
Now lastly the games, didn't bother taking photos of my boxed GBC and GBA games as they are mainly rubbish ones and i forgot about loose GBA carts, i have a few good games and a bunch of mediocre ones, plan at buying all the decent titles for GBA over summer.
The Pokemon games in the bottom right of this photo are not working, i got them really cheap but i seems they have damaged contacts/circuits so cannot me fixed
. (I have close up photos but wont bother posting here for the sake of space)
Lastly a bunch of japanese games, some are pretty darn good but i can't play most due to them being in Japanese
.
Hope you enjoyed looking, if you have any questions about anything feel free to ask. It's been a pleasure reading about and looking at the collections in this thread and i would love more people to post photos for me the gawp at!
But I've still got a sizeable GB collection, all boxed and complete:
