You guys asked for it, I just uploaded a NEW Pimp my Gameboy and this time it's the ORIGINAL! Watch it here: 🔥 th-cam.com/video/lN6pfLxoIXE/w-d-xo.html 🔥
People called the original Gameboy the Gameboy Brick because of its size and shape, look it up. The color I had was the red one. Ergo, it's the red brick.
To be honest i dont like this setup, the "non-portableness" ruins it, the sound quality is crap, the joystick isnt reliable and the screen doesnt have any necesary effects and drains away the battery as well as take away a plug spot. This seems more of a downgrade to me.
Love that G-Shock you're wearing in this video. Everytime you wear a G-Shock in any of your videos, it makes me want to buy them more and more. Thank you. :)
Fun story, one time my cousin and I took all of our broken Gameboy Color accessories and proceeded to use a hot glue gun on his 2nd game boy color to make it better with broken clips and such. A Frankenstein Gameboy Color. It worked for the most part but one of the features didn't work out as planned but it looked cool. We basically took one of the lighted magnifying glasses with a broken clip. We cut up the arm and made a low rider style lighted magnifying glass that was maybe only a centimeter away from the screen. It looked cool, magnification was alright, but the lights weren't angled for that and it only lit up the left and right sides of the screen. I had fun times as a kid with gameboy color and all its accessories, I loved the accessories. It felt like an upgrade that had a purpose. It will always hold a special place in my heart because I'm nostalgic for this kind of stuff. It takes me back to Christmas times where I got most of this stuff. I just wish every kid could experience this time period on earth. We all knew Gameboy Color was just the beginning of portable gaming. The first stepping stone towards getting console quality gaming in a portable handheld. We knew that one day we would have portable games that could display the console quality games we had at the time. I use to lay in bed at night thinking Wow, in the future I can play playstation 2 games anywhere I want with a Playstation Portable. We all knew it would probably be called the PSP. It's just crazy being alive today and all those tech dreams I had as a kid are not only a reality, but it's old news. The nintendo Switch was a dream I had in Highschool. This device I'm typing this with can play all of those games I dreamed about playing on playstation 2 and play them anywhere. Idk. Things are different now but I wish every kid could have grown up during the handheld portable gaming race between Nintendo and Sony. It was a fascinating time. I miss getting home from school one day and in the mail I have a PS2 demo disc inside an EGM magazine that showed me what's coming out soon every month. And gave me a peek into the near future of gaming. I still have my magazine that came out before the first DS and PSP. It has both of their concept models on the front cover. The PSP still looked about the same, but the DS on the cover was really ugly and bloated looking. Think god they saw the PSP and probably thought, hey we need to make this a little bit more sleeker because right now it looks like a 2 pack of grey baby wipes lol.
Alelix26 one day it stopped working I had it for like 6 or 5 yrs I was a gamer ever since I was 3 I'm now 10 and this is my mom's account I have my own though!
My grandpa bought me a brand new red colored Gameboy SP from a K-mart when I was 8. I remember the rush of excitment I felt looking up at its shiney box through the monolithic glass case as the K-mart employee removed it from its shrine. I had it for years, built up a very nice library of games, then a week after I made a new friend in 3rd grade he came over to my house and stole it from me... Everything, he took everything. He stole a piece of my childhood. I felt resentment for years. But after talking about it with my mom a few years back I found out he came from a broken home, his parents where divorced, his dad in and out of jail. And I even learnd of a few fucked up rumors my mom heard about his mom, they may not have been completley true but where theres smoke theres fire. Im glad he took it, and if I held the little wisdom I have today back then I would have gladley given it to him, binge playing pokemon on my gameboy was one of the greatest highlights of my childhood, I hope it served him well and I hope hes doing good today.
I had something like this growing up. That vibration/sound pack is a battery pack too. You're getting some power hum from having it plugged in. It'll work better if you play off the charge and not plugged in.
My first was the Gameboy Pocket, With a copy of Pokemon Yellow, and Zelda Links Awakening DX. My mom, by mistake, got me the pocket instead of the color, my first Gameboy color was a seethru purple one.
That music and game intro thing bring back some nostalgia. I'm only 12 at the moment so I wasn't even alive when it was popular, but I have an old Gameboy Advance and some games (including several Pokemon games) that used to belong to one of my older brothers. I used to play that thing all the time when I was little.
I used to been doing every thing on a 1080p Dell screen for pc or rf signal going through a old vhs player. I used record gameplay using the bus player take the tape to my grandma's and use her DVD player turn it to disk format and then put in my computer and commentary would be recorded through a spy watch toy I got from a quarter machine and plugged it into the computer. I then put it all together using movieplus x5 and exported it in the lowest format and fastest mode. it looked horrible. now I use a HD tv, elgato game capture tv, and still use movie plus x5 I deleted all my videos but could try again at youtube people wanted though most have unsubed by then. like if you want me to retry youtube.
This was my first gameboy, had it in cyan, I loved the hell out of it, I remember Pokémon yellow, Mario bros delux, and friggin Pokémon pinball, this was my shit back in 2005
These accessories are fun and can sometimes enhance a Gameboy, but not all of them are ones that are worth buying. I used to just use a wormlight and maybe a clip-on shell for the front of the Gameboy Advance with the enhanced controller buttons. I never took it as far as you did here. Lol.
So basically undo everything the Gameboy has been striving to do, making it more portable. Because this thing looks like it reverted back to the first Gameboy size released lol.
My first gameboy was game boy advanced but I ended up buying an original gameboy because they look amazing :) I'm thinking of getting every gameboy that came out as I collect gaming consoles and would love to have one of every style/ gen that came out.
My first gameboy was a white gameboy advance and my younger siblings got a used transparent purple gameboy color. This was the only way to keep us quiet on long car rides.
Man I had all of the above plus a grip/battery pack that made it shaped like a playstation controller on the back. It was pretty nice actually. I didnt use the joystick and button extenders very much. Mainly racing games it felt better or fighting games where you have to do a back down forward motion. Now the lighted magnify glass seems like a great idea when your at Walmart and you see this thing on the shelf, but even back then, the plastic clips would break on these accessories all the time, I ended up just settling with Worm lights for the remainder of my gameboy color playing days. They may not have been the best solution to play in the dark, but they were reliable and most importantly they were cheap.
My first gameboy experience was with the first generation Gameboy, that had a green and black display. Then I had a Color, and then the 1st Advance. Fast forward to last year, and I have a new 3ds xl now.
Back in the school days, having a magnifier with a backlight was practically necessary. Especially during those pre-dawn winter bus rides on those looong country bus routes.
I just today got a Gameboy colour with Emperors new groove as the game so I decided to watch this video once more to see how I can enhance my Gameboy experience
Most the add ons I thought were stupid, I liked how the plain gameboy color could be run over by a lawn mower then submerged in water and 24 hrs later your catching a pokemon.

If you had this Gameboy when you were a kid, you’d be considered the “Toughest kid on the block”.

Red brick?
***** i have the same question what red brick
People called the original Gameboy the Gameboy Brick because of its size and shape, look it up.
The color I had was the red one. Ergo, it's the red brick.
My first Gameboy was a Special Pikachu Edition with Pokémon Yellow.
I still feel special to this day.

+Niccolò Banchi nice! I swear there was a tattooed version?
there was a lot of different tattooed ones
Nope. It was just a grey gameboy
He;s saying that there was a tattooed version, not that yours was tattooed.
Ah lol
this Gameboy is the ugliest Gameboy i have ever seen
+Derperitus oh shit
roasted
Derperitus did jou mean m the face crazy Professor jes he is ugly
what is uglier this "Gameboy" tuning or my language and my language is so shity because iam german and my tablet have german autocorection
i dont discriminating Gameboy i love the design of original gameboys but the "Upgrades" are reaaaly ugly
To be honest i dont like this setup, the "non-portableness" ruins it, the sound quality is crap, the joystick isnt reliable and the screen doesnt have any necesary effects and drains away the battery as well as take away a plug spot.
This seems more of a downgrade to me.
I bet we can upgrade the old bulb for a brighter led light?
Sans Contributing to what? What problem?
TremendousPuppy It still looks p-pimpin(?)
TremendousPuppy WHAT DO YOU EXPECT FROM A GAMEBOY COLOUR DUDE
+Veneyzzi HD quite a lot actually
A backlight would literally be enough just to make this 10x better
Yeah I agree. Perhaps for episode two. ;)
Brandon Salt

My grandma had the original gameboy with tetris, pacman, and ceasar's palace. Then she got me a gameboy color and pokemon red for my birthday.
transparent purple gameboy color back in 99 still got it and it's still fun :)
+Afro Potato 6 gold coins is awesome.
What was your first ever Gameboy/Handheld? Comment below!
Brandon Salt. Mine was colour too and don't forget get the camera and printer of game boy
Brandon Salt Mine was the Advance SP... Sadly I'm not a 90s kid...
The famous printer! Great idea!
The SP was still pretty dope!
Love that G-Shock you're wearing in this video. Everytime you wear a G-Shock in any of your videos, it makes me want to buy them more and more. Thank you. :)

my Fırst (and only) gameboy is the original DMG-1 gameboy. ı am still playing with it. it's fun :D
Cool, my first was a green game boy color
mines a gbc transparent color
These accessories are fun and can sometimes enhance a Gameboy, but not all of them are ones that are worth buying. I used to just use a wormlight and maybe a clip-on shell for the front of the Gameboy Advance with the enhanced controller buttons. I never took it as far as you did here. Lol.
Haha, yeah the worm light was awesome!
My first handheld was a gameboy color that was purple and you can see the insides I got it from a pawn shop, but it worked perfectly!
Lol that thing is a fucking monstrosity
Cool video!
Thanks buddy!
my first handheld was a psp
Ooo nice!
Brandon Salt my first handheld was the original ds but I ripped the top part lol
My first handheld was game&watch :(...
my first handheld was dil...
my first handheld was head
So basically undo everything the Gameboy has been striving to do, making it more portable. Because this thing looks like it reverted back to the first Gameboy size released lol.
It's big alright but im just showing some accessories, I don't claim it as being better, just more enhanced. Thanks for watching buddy! :)
My first gameboy was game boy advanced but I ended up buying an original gameboy because they look amazing :) I'm thinking of getting every gameboy that came out as I collect gaming consoles and would love to have one of every style/ gen that came out.
I love how Nintendo put a locking mechanism on the gameboy so you couldn't take out the cartridge while playing the game
Why can't it be called game boy girl

My first game Gameboy was the Gameboy... which you apparently didn't even recognize as something that exists.
My first gameboy was Classic. Im 14 yrs. old btw...
Good for you. You hate this generations music as well?
Heh. I get it
Hello, fellow child. I also have a distaste for this generations music.
XDD
No i dont hate this generation music. Not at all.
Hey ladies check out my gameboy
;)
Brandon Salt
my first gameboy was the nintendo DS
Not technically a Gameboy but i'll let you off. :)
My first gameboy was a white gameboy advance and my younger siblings got a used transparent purple gameboy color. This was the only way to keep us quiet on long car rides.
Awesome, car rides at night were the worst though, without backlit that is. :S
Man I had all of the above plus a grip/battery pack that made it shaped like a playstation controller on the back. It was pretty nice actually. I didnt use the joystick and button extenders very much. Mainly racing games it felt better or fighting games where you have to do a back down forward motion.

My first game boy was tye DS game boy
my first was a N64
Very nice, what about handheld?
Brandon Salt a green Gameboy Color for 12$ 😀
My first was GBA,but then I got the SP so I gave it to my friend.
Very kind of you!
Very awesome friend
I found a teal Game Boy Color in my garage yesterday. Woo! (Fun fact, the font used for the words "Game Boy" is Gill Sans)
This is so nostalgic that it physically hurts 😂😂
Bet you get all the girls with that xD
you're telling me that game boy has a audio jack and the iphone 7 hasn't?
Hahah, that's right. xD
but whe still use round tires, touchè.
Anfy Games *Touché
Yo, that shit is hot
Damn right DJ!
I had some similar accessories for my O.G. Gameboy. I used them for a few days before deciding it worked better without them.
So basically it’s a gameboy on steroids...
why would a magnifier use batteries
oh nevermind
>.

The only thing the Gameboy Color accessory was missing was a built in light
Gameboy: this isn’t even my final form

Random Teacher: Hey! Turn that down and put it up!
My first gameboy experience was with the first generation Gameboy, that had a green and black display. Then I had a Color, and then the 1st Advance. Fast forward to last year, and I have a new 3ds xl now.
Back in the school days, having a magnifier with a backlight was practically necessary. Especially during those pre-dawn winter bus rides on those looong country bus routes.
I feel you man. The worm light saved me many boring car journeys.
I just today got a Gameboy colour with Emperors new groove as the game so I decided to watch this video once more to see how I can enhance my Gameboy experience
With those upgrades, we never stood a chance
*_”Did You Hear That Vibration?”_*
“This isn’t even my final form!”
Most the add ons I thought were stupid, I liked how the plain gameboy color could be run over by a lawn mower then submerged in water and 24 hrs later your catching a pokemon.
Everyone's always like "Yeah, Pokémon Blue!" I'm sitting here like "Pokémon Crystal, bitches!"
Gameboy-I CAN GO EVEN FURTHER BEYOND
"Yo check out my game boy ladies" haha
The only thing is that when the batteries in the accessory lose charge, you can't replace them ):
Gamboy evolved! INTO smart boy wahoo😭😭
so you can atualy change the vibration setings here
This is how they used to flex in '90s
Daaaang right.
