Well that said, do you or anyone else have a gameboy they want to sell me ? I had my original one I got when they first came out when I was a wee one however in the move it has been MIA. Just a working fatboy is all I need

I'll just assume you're referring to me? They just said that the internals were 'fried' and they didn't bother bringing it to sell. So in the mean time I'll just get ready to shell out the 40 bucks that the local retro store wants. Even if I did get it broken, I know nothing of console repair (I mainly work with Xbox controllers), and the store charges at least $35 to repair it. They're always fairly priced until you get to the big ticket stuff.... :'(
