The paper is expired, I have one too as a collector. It all depends on the recipt paper, the device is fine. Just run down to a store, ask for a line of blank paper, cut to size and insert it again. Works best if you cut a pointed tip to insert into the gameboy camera. It all depends on the paper. You can order some specially for that size if you want. Recipt paper uses a chemical that goes black with heat, so it doesn't burn into the paper, just warms the chemicals. And it might fade with time. Just like how the chemical on original gameboy paper doesn't work really anymore.
Yeah just go to any restaurant and ask the cashier for a strip of thermal paper. We will gladly offer you a strip for free.
Old fax machines used the same type of paper. If it gets old, it doesn't show up well when printed on.
The final arc of the billiam channel is going to be him finding his hot wheels computer
I hope so

The thermal paper has gone bad. That’s the reason the prints look so light
Shut up
Ramen King why
I bought unopened thermal paper for mine and it still is too light. Any other ways to fix this issue? Or any way to get thermal paper that wont be to light?
@@thepokemanchannel1029 if it's from the 90's air seeped in you need modern thermal paper
You need to get modern thermal paper, vintage won't work. You can buy a roll of paper for printing receipts and just cut it into any size you need, that's what Ashens did in some of his videos (Game Boy Extravaganza)
Billiam on every video:
HEY, YOU GUYS HEAR THAT I USED TO OWN THIS _HOT WHEELS COMPUTER?_
YEA I REMEMBER IT WAS LIKE THIS _HOT WHEELS COMPUTER._ YEA THIS _HOT WHEELS COMPUTER_ USED TO EXIST. HEY, HAVE YOU SEEN _RENAMON’S THIGHS- -_ uh UH I MEAN _HOT WHEELS COMPUTER?_

What does that statement mean, bro
Thank you for the tip, the gameboy micro is the same but L instead of Select.
Your paper is old. After time it kind of expires.

Id give you an N... just based on the name and sass but im not quite sure.
@@FortuneZer0 woosh
Yup. I used to work in a label plant. Thermal paper goes bad.
yeah, google gameboy printer paper; there are tons of posts of different kinds of paper people have used that work. The only thing is that getting sticky paper like the original is unlikely

Yeah, I was born here and I had no Choice...
I'm sorry.
I saw this issue with the gameboy printer, it's the paper that became too old, you just have to use new thermal paper (that is the same size)
The 2DS takes pictures in 3D even though it can't display the 3D part because pictures can be transferred to a 3DS from a 2DS and displayed on the 3DS in 3D.
If memory serves, thermal paper expires after a time.
Lifespan is about two to six years.
@@AmyraCarter well thats definitely a lot less then 20, so probably bad
@@jaykoerner I mean, it still can be used, it just won't work as well, if at all.
You can buy new thermal paper meant for printing calculators
@@bigpurpleflower2185 Unfortunately, the regular stuff doesn't have an adhesive back, so you can't turn your Game Boy Camera photos into stickers.
i spent like 7 hours doing the built in stuff on the 3ds.
I found my 3ds sd card and it was just me either obscenely close up and disgusting or me as an abomination from the effects lol
normal Ds for me, my sister would take pictures and we would mess around, and now she has a job as a photographer!
Same but on regular DS with the pictochat lol
Same!
Fun fact, I just took my daughter to that same Crayola experience just two weeks ago. Mnm world as well.

@@nyieshalinae831 what do you mean ultra hand is boring
at animematsuri in the year this video was made, a VERY old couple was taking pictures of people's costumes with their Ds cameras. im talkin like late 70's to early 80's old.
They looked so happy, they took a picture of my garbage division cosplay then hobbled off giggling.
so i guess some of them have...a market out there lol

One of my good friends actually took me and my wife's engagement photos with the PSVita. Amazingly, they captured the moment very well despite the wonky lighting, even if our faces were blindingly white from the lights
You know when you cover the Kinect, you’ve gotta talk about Kinectimals!
I thought this was gonna be your average game boy camera retrospective, but I was genuinely impressed with the breadth of what you covered. Well done Billiam!
Hey Billiam, a friend of mine used a different thermal papel for the Game Boy printer. He started with low quality prints but he changed to a more recent one and it looks great!!!
Yes, it is the chemical used for recipt paper, it does go bad with time, so newer paper will work better for that reason, and the images printed WILL fade with time because it is the chemical that changes with some heat.
I remember eating dinner at Chilli's one night years ago, and some kid was sneaking pictures of the hostess with his DSi. The kid looked like 8 or 10.
Was she cute lmao
bruh
that's kinda why it has such a loud shutter sound you can't turn off
that plus japanese law (which loops back to taking creepy photos)
Absolute madlad
Classy.

It scares me knowing I’ve been to those terrifying gift shops
Trails of Cold Steel on the Vita is pretty great. If you liked persona 4 you'll probably love it.
Whoa it's wild seeing MB in this comment section
Hello Mother's Basement, I just watched your Odd Taxi video before this year old one
Stop him! He's still trying to use his resources to do something fun for us!
Stop! In the name of the law! All the *resources you used* are now forfeit!
I have a red ring story.
In undergrad I had this roommate who I absolutely despised, and the feeling was mutual. He had an XBOX 360 and played it pretty regularly. He had preordered COD MW2 (if you don't remember this thing was hyped AF), he was so excited to play it, popped it in and..... red ring of death. He was so pissed, cursing and yelling. I just sat there doing chemistry homework with a big smile on my face.
I love going back to the videos where you show parts of Orlando. I lived there for 19 years and recently had to move away. And it brings me so much joy to see these landmarks. (ie. the wizard at the magic castle gift shop) "I moved here! This is my doing!" really made me chuckle because everyone seems to have that same feeling about Orlando and Florida in general, they love it but they hate it.
"I chose to live here."
Floridian: But why though?
Is Florida that bad?
@@mykaruest6257 Orlando is like having both the worst parts of LA and the worst parts of Florida in one place.
Short answer: yee
Long answer: yeeeeeeeeeeeeeess
I've driven by that scary wizard in Orlando so many times I never thought I'd see it in a video about the Gameboy Camera.
I borrowed a friend's Gameboy camera cans printer for a few weeks as a kid.. keep in mind that, at this time, taking a picture required film, developing the film, picking up the pictures before you could see them. Quality aside, it was still super cool to be able to take and see/print pictures immediately. I don't think I owned my first digital camera (2mp) for another 6-8 years!
I swear when I went on vacation this year, this was the street Dad took to get to Disney from the place we rented.
When I went on vacation in 2019 I got a hotel room with a great view of that wizard
Can confirm, also moved to Orlando for the almighty Shop Wizard.
Same, the wizard should be a city monument
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't there another store or one like it on I drive near that big ass McDonald's
@@kandikidzora There's a hundred stores exactly like that on that street, but there's another store with the exact same wizard statue too hahaha
3:09 no one gonna talk about this lady went to town on this 7 year old cause he had a camera on his gameboy
Girls grow sooner, so they were probably both about 12 years old
im trying to forget it.
she looks like his sister lol
Fun fact! The OG Xbox also had a camera, which was used to make video calls via the Xbox Video Chat software. It was supposed to be released in the US, but was only ever actually released in Japan.
Internally, it’s the exact same camera as the PS2 eyetoy except the firmware has the mic disabled (since you’d be using the mic headset via your controller).
The video call function has since been restored through the Insignia Xbox Live private server and there’s a guide/patch to enable a PS2 eyetoy to work with it :)
Seeing all these Orlando locations are giving me college flashbacks. Lol
Your grin in the "Billy's on TV" bit made me chortle so hard.
"Let me know what games on the PS Vita I should--"
Danganronpa
DANGANRONPA!
Ew no how about Persona 4 GOLDEN
Muramasa.
Digimon Story CS/HM and Digimon World Next Order.
You can get that on PS4 and Steam, though.
I worked for an app developing company, the main developer and I shared a love of Yu-Gi-Oh and got talking about the lack of AR support for the game, I mean like you said, it’s not something thats hard to do and the game lends itself to it! So we actually developed an app for it and BUILT stands for a phone or tablet, you were able to actually lay your cards down in front of the phone and see your monsters appear on the field, as well as the other persons, it required 2 phones or 2 tablets or one phone and one tablet, connected via Bluetooth, with plans to allow remote play over WiFi in the future, we contacted Konami? I think? And told them that we had developed this app and asked if they’d be interested in hiring us or buying the idea and softwares... after the initial automated response we waited a further 6 months for a response, working on the app the whole time and having A LOT of fun with it! When they got back to us it was to say that they had no plans to develop such a game and ordered a cease-and-desist on any developments or dissemination of said softwares under threat of legal action...
By that point we had a pretty much fully working app, I mean it ran on everything from apple devices, android and even windows tablets! All the animations had been finished and we’d even managed to stitch together most of the audio which we’d essentially ripped mostly from TH-cam videos... It was gorgeous! We did plan on re-designing the app under a different name and selling it ourselves with the simultaneous release of a card collection franchise...
Unfortunately the amount of reworking the app required was immense and we had several big pushes at work one after the other so it shelved and forgotten about...
The thermal paper has probably gone bad, but you can also change how dark the print outs are in the options menu of g/s/c. I always kept mine on the darkest setting and it had decent results
Not knowing the issue but commenting so Billiam gets more engagement~
Dont buy old in box paper
Same
"rate five stars" haven't heard that in a long while
Oh God, I've driven past that wizard gift shop. Your channel is practically committed to reminding me of things I've forgotten.
I’m absolute fascinated by these weird Florida gift shops, you should catalogue the weirdest ones
I love that when doing a sponsor you just go "oh hey, BTW I've been trying to up my quality, so I need to use sponsors. This week's sponsor is x"
It's so annoying when channels try to blend it in like "genghis khan was one of history's greatest monsters, and if you want to be one of history's greatest monsters then you'll need a website from SqUaReSpAcE!"
So true
the way billiam introduces sponsors in his videos and in some videos also gives an extra heads up at the beginning about his sponsor is refreshing. he’s not pushing his sponsors as the Best Thing in the world, but describing their services without sweet talking them up. his commercial breaks are short and also to the point too. good man.
I need to find someones who's aesthetic is the gameboy camera
I'm here
I own one and I still love that stupid thing.
I have 2 now. I bought one. Got home it didn't work. I ended up buying another one. But I recently got bits to open the cart and cleaned the contacts with an eraser. It works now. So now I have two.
Crappy but trying?
I wasnt old enough to experience anything before the dsi really, BUT THAT PET THING FOR THE PLAYSTATION??? Oh my god that brought back a LOT of memories, i remember loving that thing
I remember buying an 'intercooler' for my 360 after fixing it with the penny trick. 👍. That kept it alive for almost another year. It was 3 huge fans and it attached on the entire back.
“If you know the issue, please comment down below”
Well I guess everyone listened haha
Looking these spectacular stores in Orlando, reminds me to "Attack of the 50 feet eyesores" segment of the Simpsons Treehouse of Horror
@@nova_kaiser Talking about good Publicity
The cameras and motion controls just makes me think of VR gaming which then makes me think about how one day VR gaming will just be you reenacting playing regular games using VR controllers/headset in real life but in game it's you with a regular game controller looking at a tv.
A lot of the camera accessories you showed I am familiar with because my friends have them.. it just brings back a lot of memories of my childhood..
I never knew that the gba had it’s own camera
Yo I used to take DS\ 3DS selfies before I got a smart phone xD
The 3DS' 3D camera is dope af, with 3D on it's like looking at a memory
Love all the I-92 shots!
Besides the paper being old, you may want to try wiping off where the laser heats the paper. We use similar printers at my work and if there is too much dirty at the contact point, the print comes out bad.
i recently just moved the orlando a few months ago and now i know where to go cryptid hunting with my dinky little 3DS camera. thanks billiam, very cool.
He really should make separate episode about the eye of judgment. I'd love to see that!
I used my Gameboy Camera as a survailance system when I was little. I was always loved to experiment, so I combined my Gameboy Camera with my Snes and Super Game boy and connected that to the home TV outlets. So in the end I was able to set up my snes anywhere near an outlet and spy through the TV in my bedroom. It was awesome!
orlando native born and raised here, it's so trippy seeing home on youtube. never thought id hear you advertising the Florida Mall
When he said he was going to see the greatest cultural icon in Orlando, I thought he was going to the I-4 eyesore
Same! Lol
I thought he was going to some strip club on OBT LMAOOOO 💀
Persona 5 Battle menu
That's a funny pronounciation of the Nokia N-Taco
I actually wanted one when I was a kid, I'm glad I didn't.
As a PS Vita owner, you have got to play "Soul Sacrifice". It's a pretty wild Japanese rpg style game with all the fun grindy elements to make spells even more insane!
We had this game for EyeToy on Playstation 2 and that was my absolute favorite thing to do for such a long time. Seriously some of the best fun I had (as far as video games at least) as a kid.
Is it weird that I want a Gameboy camera more then I want the iPhone 11.
Nope, not at all.
camera on phone → kinda boring at this point
camera on GameBoy → SUPER DOPE
I have seen the run screen so if you don’t want nightmares DON’T BUY THE GAME BOY CAMERA you might get the creepy screen
Good thing you can pick one up for $20
Immortal_Discard than
Jesus Christ, Invizimals was my childhood. God, it's been so long since I've last played the games, maybe I should boot them up again. Thanks for that rush of nostalgia, and great video as always!

I can't believe I visited Orlando and didnt go to the iconic landmarks you showed in this video...
A true disservice to my vacation
For a while, my only camera was my 3DS camera. I'm honestly scared to see what lurks on that SD card. Great video like always!
For PS Vita recommendations without Persona there's pretty much a few basic recommendations that I give everyone whose got one of these accursed things. The only problem I've had with the Vita is that a lot of the best games are ports that you could just play on a PS3/4 which has made it a bit of a pointless handheld as time goes on lol
Either way, this is my basic list
- Digimon Cyber Sleuth (+/or Hacker's Memory, I played both) if you've not played it yet somehow.
- Zero Escape: The Nonary Games
- Steins;Gate
-
Atelier Escha and Logy Plus
- Gravity Rush
- Uncharted: Golden Abyss
There's a little bit of everything in there, so hopefully at least one of these might suit you!
Killzone: mercenaries
Is a pretty good fps
Or
Odd world strangers wraith (however was original on first xbox and ps3(still good though))
Muramasa Rebirth is great, its a port, but its the best version of the game and the only place where you can play the dlc campaigns which are amazing.
Senran kagura , dragon ball battle of z, one pirate warriors , one piece burning blood are good on vita too
YES to Gravity Rush. That game deserves more recognition. Same with the Zero Escape franchise
Also, Danganronpa
Also, Custom Firmware to have the ultimate emulator machine
One thing that's interesting with the Dreameye is that it was bundled with the Diver 2000 CX-1, a TV with a built in Dreamcast seemingly made for communication; the idea was that the Dreameye would be used as a Webcam so you could video chat using your TV, I assume to make it more convenient, but I'm not sure if said video chat service was ever released, since there seems to be at most two games for it, and the only one I know anything about it Visual Studio, and I didn't see anything about video chat functionality for that, so unless it's the other one, DreamPhotoFun, I don't know what software could allow for video messaging.
You forgot about the Wii camera. The one bundled with Your Shape.
Fun fact: The Eyetoy and the Eye camera can be used as a plug and play microphone on Windows (odd considering they're cameras) but the Xbox 360 live camera and the aforementioned Wii camera from Unisoft are plug and play webcams. They don't have microphones though.
So if you want a webcam and mic setup on the cheap, invest in an Eye toy and a 360 or Wii camera, or go even better with the eye camera.
I don't know the issue 🤔
I can see the headline now.
"Flordia Man kills v-pets and posts it on TH-cam"
"Florida man strikes again"
Billiam really does make the best lunchbreak-ready content.
Fun fact I always like to throw out that was never documented anywhere (I don't think it was at least): If you take a photo on the 3DS and then press back on the circle pad (and realign the two images) you'll actually see a much better image than the 3DS shows you normally (depth is more apparent, things coming towards the screen pop out more, etc). IMO, the 3D makes it look a lot more real than that resolution normally would. I have a photo I took of my late father on my 3DS and it's always a treat to see this more immersive photo of him. I also have ones of my friends from back when we met and were all more or less fetuses.
But, then again, I actually like the 3D on the 3DS unlike the 99.999876% of the people who had the system, so your mileage on this fact may vary.
6:01 Well then ;)
Seeing wacky Orlando honestly made me more nostalgic than seeing the old DS camera again.
Wasn't there a haunted house type place somewhere on I drive... I wanna say it was called Skull island or something like that....
I moved out of Florida recently. Little did I know that those gift shops were considered a oddity. I grew up around those cursed things and just thought everyone had those. Little did I know..
The two cameras provide a stereoscopic image (approximately as far apart as human eyes, computers can do the rest) which the game then displays in the sort of shimmery overlay that it does for all of it's games, the 2 shots overlapping and slightly set apart, which our eyes percieve as depth.
I like how you mention fitting in from middle school, which I just made a video about for yesterday. Spooky.
on my old channel, I used an Eyetoy to record Let's Plays XD
NOT THE MAGIC CASTLE GIFT SHOP, I’ve seen that in person and it’s even more terrifying than it looks
Send that printer to Elliot from The Retro Future channel. The guy's some kind of genie when it comes to old tech restoration. Odds are either the thermal emitter (the part that prints) is either burnt out from use, or really dirty from not being cleaned, so the heat doesn't all reach the paper like it should.

One or the other, my dude.

Loved this video man! As always there's a ton of effort put into it, but this one specifically seemed like a capturing and photo transferring nightmare. It came out wonderfully though!
I remember this sci-fi mmo kinda like wizard 101, I remember you could wander around a space station, make your own character or room.
6:12 woah I have that exact printer
Great video, you clearly put a lot of time in with this one. And I have a solution for the Gameboy printer. You need to buy high-sensitivity thermal paper, because it's a low energy printer and doesn't get as hot. It costs a little bit more, but it will give you better prints. :) Hope this helps.
a game for psvita I recommend is Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles
I fully support this message!!
Not 'technically' psvita game though, definitely a good game for the sony handhelds though
Killzone Mercenary
PsVita suggestion: Soul Sacrifice. It’s a really fun RPG that takes place on a post apocalyptic world where an evil sorcerer has conquered the world. You play as one of his many tortured prisoners who stumbles upon a magic talking book that allows you to relive the memories and experiences of the only sorcerer capable of taking down the big bad. So most of the game actually takes place in the recorded memories of the book. There you take on a very nice variety of monsters and the game changes the appearances your characters left arm (the source of their magic) and even stats depending on how many of your defeated opponents you either spare or fully kill your enemies. It’s really interesting and fun.
Back when the gameboy camera was out, nobody cared about the resolution because the general public didn't know what resolution was. Most of us has CRT style TVs that we watched everything on. We looked at it like having photo booth anywhere you want and it was fun when your friends where over. I had the wormcam and remember it being awesome to take COLOR PICTURES ANYWHERE I WANTED. There was digital cameras back then that were way better of course but this was affordable for kids and easy for kids to use. My moms digital camera I was afraid to touch and it was complex for me as a kid to just take a picture.
But I feel like the original gameboy camera started it all. Like would cell phones even have a camera in it if it wasnt for gameboy having one fit in a gameboy cartrage. Then every handheld devoce after that, I hoped for a camera and eventually expected any and every handheld device to have some kind of camera. Imagine a world where your phone never had a camera and neither did any game consoles.
Some of my favorite PS Vita games:
Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir
Fate/Extella: The Umbral Star
Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth
PSVITA has Odin Sphere?!?!
18:07 CAPTAIN'S LOG STARDATE OCTOBER 15, 2019
Nice.
I pass that weird ass animal statue and Mermaid gift shops EVERY DAY going to work omfg
It’s so weird seeing them all in a video LOL
Tearaway and Little big Planet are both great games for the vita. The touchscreens on the vita make LittleBigPlanet so much better
_Proof that DDLC is still relevant in late 2019_
DDLC?
I'm sitting here trying to figure out if that was the 192 shop or the I-drive shop. Either way, those things are really creepy.
underdog105 it’s the 192 wizard
I was so sleep deprived when I visited Orlando (night shift trying to do normal human hours during vacation) that the giant wizard scared the ever living shit out of me every time we drove by it.
That giant wizard taken on the gameboy camera made it look even more malicious and creepy. Looks like something out of a Rob Zombie music video
