I love that Elliot got these things, because you know they're going to get treated with the proper love & care they deserve. That lanyard at the end is adorable.
Sometimes sellers get excited about the games they sell or they get to know you(I use eBay) and I like letting them know what they sell me goes into my collection and that I'm not a reseller. I bought Bravely Default and Bravely Second and the seller hoped I enjoyed my playthrough. I let them know I'm a collector and am excited to have them. Connections...so pure
@@GlassMaster_Jaeyeah lmao i had a chat with this ebay seller after i asked them about a camera and we chatted about our life and they told me about the camera and everything and told me it's backstory
That Gameboy Advance "battery pack" is actually just a power converter that only works plugged in. I bought one back in the day thinking it was a battery pack, but no.
that pink SP had some solvent poured on it, something like lacquer thinner or based on the color of the system, more likely acetone in the form of nail polish remover.
I had one of those gba afterglow front lights, and yes they were terrible. The dial should adjust the brightness but it's never going to be great. The module on top has contacts that touch the screen cover to power it. Maybe try unplugging that and putting it back on to get better contact? Definitely a blast from the past. Good luck!
You got a steal of a deal on those iBook clamshells. They are so scalped after online in North America and are often sold for way over the price of their actual worth.
Been using Sendico since the Japan vlog series. It's amazing all the cool stuff you can find for such good deals, I've recently picked up a splatoon 2 pro controller with a broken ZR trigger for ¥2400. Should be a fairly easy fix, if need be I can shell swap another pro controller I have. Super excited for that, I've also ordered a lot of DS and DS lites, maybe more than I should 😂
That pink SP looks almost like it was a deliberate design choice. It'd be perfect as a Splatoon special edition. Also I find it funny that you refer to a bunch of MacBooks but not a single one of those Macintosh laptops was an actual MacBook. Just PowerBooks and iBooks. :)
It's been fun watching what you unearthed! I really, REALLY want that gameboy colour lanyard with the miniture gameboy! Verrrrrry sick, Nice haul!! I STILL haven't finished unboxing all my items, but I'm trying!😅
I was a key holder at GameStop and we got a lot of SPs on trade. That where is very common. It's actually just from it being put down on a table and picked back up. It's how they wear. I think the heat from the backlight causes it, but if you've seen a lot of game boy SPs it's very common on high use models.
Man, I was a into it when the GBA came out, and that front light add-on would have been wild! Imagine playing that in the dark at night! I bet it looks decent in that use, especially considering it was unplayable in the dark otherwise 😅
Take a shot every time Elliot says “Gameboy” 🥃 Jokes aside, I love seeing all the cool stuff you own! You should make a museum for everyone to go and enjoy, it would be lovely ❤️
That GBA game was Puyo Pop Fever, released on damn near everything. I'm surprised you weren't drowning in it at the Hard-Offs 😂. Also what a sick Seibu Lions GBP! Does anyone know if they made them for other teams? Gonna have to look when I go to Japan next month!
I've started importing from japan thanks to all your videos and everything is so much cleaner than the used market in the UK and cheaper too. everything is at a fair price
3:53 i've never seen the game before, but i looked it up & its Puyo Pop Fever in Europe/America or Puyopuyo Fiba (ぷよぷよフィーバー) in Japan. seemed to be released on a lot of different consoles, not just GBA
My favorite thing was the White DMG Game Boy! it would have been the GBA front light but that didn't seem to work probably, though I like how seemless it looked (kind of just looked like a slightly bulkier screen lens).
Elliot the AGB-008 is not a rechargable battery, is an adapter to play directly from the light socket, so you will never need batteries again, I have one and I can even play with an IPS screen, also you will need the cable model AGB-009 to make it work since have a weird conection.
the game you got with the gba (the sonic team game) is Puyo Pop Fever. Its a really good Puyo Puyo game thats release on everything back in 2004 (PS2, GameCube. Xbox OG, DS, PSP, GBA, Arcade and even on the Dreamcast actually its the last dreamcast game sega ever made) the gameboy version got a physical release in europe and the uk.
1 minute 11 seconds in. ... I have one of those iBooks clamshells and the screen is also damaged and before unpausing the video I KNOW you will fix it and I KNOW I cant wait to see that so I can then repair my own.
I know it's a Konami product so they're advertising their own game, but marketing a GB accessory with Castlevania: The Adventure is like marketing a car with flat tires, stripped paint, and a broken out windshield
My gues regarding the Advance SP is that it got splashed with some sort of paint dissolvent. Probably someone was painting their house and some of the liquid got spilled on the Gameboy.
Elliot's gotta spend the two weeks to memorise the Katakana. It's not exactly simple but they usually well read out English words. But then he'd also know how to read Puyo Puyo in japanese
My favorite items were surprising the cases and the lanyard. Im still sad you didnt go for that sakura gameboy, or that t shirt bundle would be my fav lol
Speaking of apple, you should make a custom game boy color for Steve Wozniak. I saw a documentary about him, and he plays tetris on a GB light. It was an old documentary, so i don't know if he's upgraded his GB since then, but i think it's a neat idea.
@@TheRetroFuture, hey Elliot, I've just tried buying from sendico my items are arriving in their warehouse, I've just pooped my pants at the delivery costs, it's already at about £260, can you advise how to reduce the delivery costs? Is it cheaper to have a large parcel sent or a few smaller ones for example, also will I get import tax? Thanks man
Pokémon Green was localized in English as Pokémon Blue. Meaning that, aside from the cover art and title screen, the games are identical. The game that is actually exclusive to Japan is the later released Japanese version of Pokémon Blue. #TheMoreYouKnow
The Red and Blue versions of Pokemon released outside of Japan are honestly in an interesting position in relation to the Japanese games because they’re not entirely the same as Japanese Red and Green or Japanese Blue-as I recall, they keep the original version exclusive Pokemon from Red and Green, but they included the updates from Blue such as the (somewhat less ugly) updated sprites and updated music. Also bug fixes because as buggy as the international release was, Japanese Red/Green are somehow even more broken.
I vaguely recall seeing some dmg style pockets when I was a kid, but that was 20 something years ago and I might be confusing something I saw on the internet with what was released here.
Awesome as always.
I love that Elliot got these things, because you know they're going to get treated with the proper love & care they deserve.

unboxing videos are the best 😅✌️
I love seeing all the retro tech. That Game Boy Pocket that looks like the original Game Boy is so cool. Great video thanks for sharing

I have no money left after paying rent
I love retro handhelds. These are very rare.
You got a steal of a deal on those iBook clamshells. They are so scalped after online in North America and are often sold for way over the price of their actual worth.
I remember when those cool, colorful Macs came out.
As for the pink Gameboy, maybe someone spilled nail polish remover?
Loved the iBooks and powerbooks! I heard the plastic parts on those are falling apart, good look restoring them!
3:55 that game is called Puyo Puyo Fever and is basically Dr.Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine, it's such a good game
Great video! The defect on the pink gameboy advance sp is super cool
I agree!
That pink GBA SP actually looks kind of awesome to me.
Every time Elliot said "MacBook" and I instinctively corrected him to either PowerBook or iBook...
I love your content you make my days way better❤

A new sendico opening! My favourite videos from you
Looking forward to whatever you plan to do with the powerbooks! Always wanted one, but they are so hard to find now.
Man, I was a into it when the GBA came out, and that front light add-on would have been wild! Imagine playing that in the dark at night! I bet it looks decent in that use, especially considering it was unplayable in the dark otherwise 😅
My favorite TH-camr of all time right here boys
Take a shot every time Elliot says “Gameboy” 🥃
Jokes aside, I love seeing all the cool stuff you own! You should make a museum for everyone to go and enjoy, it would be lovely ❤️
Sorry but its an Ibook G3. And the black is a powerbook g3. Macbooks didn't exist till 2005. The G3 Series is from the early 90s
Those aren’t MacBooks. MacBooks weren’t released until 2006. Those are iBooks and PowerBooks
always excited about another retro future upload 💯
MacBook?!? It's an iBook! Also, those are super cool machines... hope you never need to change the HDD in those :D
And at least one PowerBook!
6:28 that’s a PowerBook
That GBA game was Puyo Pop Fever, released on damn near everything. I'm surprised you weren't drowning in it at the Hard-Offs 😂.
Also what a sick Seibu Lions GBP! Does anyone know if they made them for other teams? Gonna have to look when I go to Japan next month!
That GB Pocket case is amazing. I would've taken that everywhere as a kid
Matte clearcoat that metallic one and preserve that look!!!
There were so much stuff and I was so invested I forgot to take out the trash
5:53 that’s a iBook
that pink GBA SP looks so cool wth the paint like that! i hope it dosnt rub of more, i'd love to have one like that looks sick!
I've started importing from japan thanks to all your videos and everything is so much cleaner than the used market in the UK and cheaper too. everything is at a fair price
I would love to see a Game Boy Light! I never even knew the thing existed until your videos!
Great video! As a massive Mac fan, I'm keenly interested in what your plan is for those iBooks and the PowerBook.
The game from sonic team you were wondering is Minna de Puyo Puyo which is sega’s Tetris clone
3:53 i've never seen the game before, but i looked it up & its Puyo Pop Fever in Europe/America or Puyopuyo Fiba (ぷよぷよフィーバー) in Japan. seemed to be released on a lot of different consoles, not just GBA
I have the Gameboy Gallery case boxed, glad to see what it looks like outside of it without having to open mine.
My favorite thing was the White DMG Game Boy! it would have been the GBA front light but that didn't seem to work probably, though I like how seemless it looked (kind of just looked like a slightly bulkier screen lens).

yep, I've also got one of these lying in my drawer somewhere ^^
Real ogs know that this video was called “ spent all my money”
I love watching your videos because of how entertaining they are,
the game you got with the gba (the sonic team game) is Puyo Pop Fever.
Its a really good Puyo Puyo game thats release on everything back in 2004 (PS2, GameCube. Xbox OG, DS, PSP, GBA, Arcade and even on the Dreamcast actually its the last dreamcast game sega ever made) the gameboy version got a physical release in europe and the uk.
5:31 look like a GBA SP with the 'Barbie' logo, but the logo has started to melt.
my fav item is the tiny colour lanyard i always love the wierd small bits you get
this is the main channel ._.
1 minute 11 seconds in. ... I have one of those iBooks clamshells and the screen is also damaged and before unpausing the video I KNOW you will fix it and I KNOW I cant wait to see that so I can then repair my own.
The GBA game was Puyo Pop Fever, which released in 2003 on damn near every console supported at the time.
1 view… never been this early before, excited to see your latest haul buddy!
Edit: the lion dmg 😭😭 want one of those bad boys sooo bad
2:31 that's a quality egg bag right there, looks like you could fit a duck
Keep the pink splotch of the SP as-is--I think it looks cool. Moreover, any attempt at fixing it will always incur a risk of wrecking it.
That Pink GameBoy SP!, don't fix that, it looks awesome :)
Interesting collection of things, look forward to the upcoming videos.
The free game with the GBA is puyo pop fever! I used to play this a lot on my psp back in 2007 😂
Always love your content!
He kept teasing this exciting project I was on the edge of my seat the entire time hoping he would say what it was about but didn’t spill the beans
“It will make a nice gift for a friend”, damn I need a friend like that
I know it's a Konami product so they're advertising their own game, but marketing a GB accessory with Castlevania: The Adventure is like marketing a car with flat tires, stripped paint, and a broken out windshield
My gues regarding the Advance SP is that it got splashed with some sort of paint dissolvent. Probably someone was painting their house and some of the liquid got spilled on the Gameboy.
Can confirm that light is as dark as you see. All the light mods at the time were crap because LEDs weren't there yet.
The gameboy light was a nice find.
The pink sp looks rad. Keep it that way.
If you're interested in GBAs with vintage mods, I have my original that was modded with an internal front light back when it was new.
All cool stuff! As always!
I’ve had an eBay search for the seibu lions pocket for 5 years they always go for so much! Honestly I want the Toyota one more, maybe one day!
Love that pink defect !!!
I have an iBook g3 converted to a touch screen by Gemini
draw kirby eyes on the gameboy matalic pink one and it will be one of a kind.
Elliot's gotta spend the two weeks to memorise the Katakana. It's not exactly simple but they usually well read out English words. But then he'd also know how to read Puyo Puyo in japanese
You're making a two screen macbook G3, aren't ya?.............🧐
4:00 The game title is "Puyo Puyo Fever", written in katakana.
My favorite items were surprising the cases and the lanyard. Im still sad you didnt go for that sakura gameboy, or that t shirt bundle would be my fav lol
You should preserve the metallic GBA SP by adding a minimal layer something like a clear coating paint (sorry not a native english speaker here).
Puts my handheld collection to shame! Great video Elliot, cheers from MX🫡
I've always wanted a Seibu Lions Game Boy Pocket, super cool!
Also the Macbooks are insanely cool too! :)
this channel so underrated only 563k!!
I feel like you ahve like the triple
That's an iBook not a MacBook
iBook G3 Clamshell >>>>
Speaking of apple, you should make a custom game boy color for Steve Wozniak. I saw a documentary about him, and he plays tetris on a GB light. It was an old documentary, so i don't know if he's upgraded his GB since then, but i think it's a neat idea.
Really enjoyed this video. 🔥🔥🔥
Nice Video Elliot.
You’ve got me intrigued what the MacBook project is.
this man has caused a gameboy shortage all by himself and i love it
I like how Elliot buys more stuff in a single video than the average Gameboy collector owns haha
😬
@@TheRetroFuture, hey Elliot, I've just tried buying from sendico my items are arriving in their warehouse, I've just pooped my pants at the delivery costs, it's already at about £260, can you advise how to reduce the delivery costs? Is it cheaper to have a large parcel sent or a few smaller ones for example, also will I get import tax? Thanks man
Wouldn't be surprised if the Lions mascot was designed by Osamu Tezuka. Looks like from Kimba.
„Look at the lack of scratches“ guess I live here now.

Those front lit GBA Halo kits are by Innovation and they are still readily available new on eBay.
It hurts when you call the ibooks and powerbooks macbooks
the pokemon green was my favourite :)
Don't feel bad about the cracks on your orange iBook. It was a manufacture defect, 99% of those have a crack in that spot next to the logo.
iBook, not MacBook😅
Omg it literally says PowerBook on the box!!!!
