I might buy an OG gameboy for my son

[River_trey]

really?

My local swap meet sells the game boys for like $20 a piece.

i might have to do some digging next time they in town

Definitely look out for them next time, they are becoming very rare and if you can find one in good condition it would be worth some decent cash.

I wouldnt give my kids my shytty old systems as gifts

I would just give em a pc loaded up with emulators and a 3ds

forget it those things are to expensive now. old pokemon games are out there being sold for 100s of dollars now.

still can get decent price on ebay tbh, was going to buy silver/gold

Don't bother if he's already been tainted by modern games.

I tried to hook up the old sega genesis for my kids.

My four year old son was like " why it look so dusty daddy"

My daughter "these games are boring, can we just play Xbox "

I just put that shyt back in the closet

a beg to differ, it maybe old but i remember appreciating atari and commodore 64 when sega and nintendo was crushing buildings.

I was about to say emulators, but it still doesn't match the feel of holding the Gameboy and seeing the graphics on that greenish screen. You should get him any of the Donkey Kong Lands or Link's Awakening and watch him get hooked.

But it's not tho, like it was a pretty well known sale.
