The box says GB Boy aka Game Boy Boy...
Yeah, it doesn't make sense. xD
Onackh Crustpunk And it probably won't be published.
Just like saying "ATM Machine", or "PIN Number" lol
my favorite game on the console is "The dk kongs" !
Fun fact: “Dc Comics” stands for Detective Comics Comics
Came here for the Fake Gameboy but stayed for the Pokemon Cock edition lmao xD
Hahahaah, its cumming soon, I promise.
Brandon Salt looking forward to a girthy review.
literally
i subbed for that game. i wanna see whats inside!
Vampires Crypt Pokemon Cock edition? LMAO. XDDD
Having one too. This thing is soooo worth the money. The Display is bright, sharp and doesn't smear during motions at all. And the sound of the thing is also very accurate. Except with some glitches with the built in ROMs like Super Mario Bros and Tetris. VERY minor things that really are the only sound issues i could spot (I'd even assume it's rom related). Purists might still not like it but I think for a 35 bucks clone it's blowing away everything. Using the Game Boy Camera indoors is now so much more fun too with that CloneBoy :) It's much cheaper than getting an original Game Boy, Game Boy pocket and Game Boy colour backlit. So far this is the best and closest to enjoy original cartridges on actual hardware without wearing out the original hardware.
I put a light in the GBA once. Man that was so many years ago. Could have been 2001-02 maybe.
Was it a worm light?
Nope. It was the GBA Afterburner light. Don't know if this link will post, but if it doesn't just search "GBA Afterburner Kit" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afterburner_(modification_kit)
Have that in mine.
I remember playing this GB in a clothing store when I was a kid. It has a fake Pikachu Game that's kinda like Mario. When you lose, it freezes and if you don't know the A+B+Select+Start reset trick you were just stuck there with a broken GB Boy Colour.
Gameboy Boy
Hahaha, it doesn't make sense unless it's like "Gameboy BOIIIIIII"
Brandon Salt No, Game 🅱oi 🅱oi.
maybe for copyright reasons ? idk
How tf did you break the original game boy there's one that survived artillery fire in the gulf war and it still works
AWESOME !!!!! thanks so much Brandon! Waiting a long time for this video, and it made my day!!!! keep up the AWESOME work!!!!!!
Much appreciated Aviation Lord, as usual thanks for commenting and watching! 🙌
I will always Watch! Your videos are awesome!!!!
One thing I'm a little concerned about this is the screen is slightly wider than an original Game Boy, and it stretches the graphics a little bit. It looks like it doesn't really distort them, but it still seems potentially distracting.
Still, for a $40 eBay clone system, I could do a lot worse.
You're right, its slightly stretched but its almost unnoticeable and for me I can live with that, but for enthusiasts it may be a problem on certain games. Thanks for watching and commenting buddy!
UberMan5000 the screen is blury as fuck! And colors are terrible...
If you want to see stretched graphics, play gbc games on an advance.
For $20 - $30 you can get the real thing and if you end up with a grimy one you can reshell it and replace the rubber pads and screen lens, that should land you around $40 - $50 as well. The stretching is terrible.
biker932012 You can play those games in the normal resolution by pressing L and/or R.
This is the second vid I see of you and I already love your content! Keep it going!
Much appreciated man, thanks for watching!
I think the lighting is messing with screen visibility because mine looks much brighter.
Thanks for the review. Ordered one 👍
I like real game boys from the real company, wait, what happens if a regular gameboy is turned on without a cartridge?
have been using mine for about 7 days now. first one broke down in 5 hours because it had a faulty screen but my new one is great :) loving it so far!
also for the love of god DO NOT REMOVE THE PROTECTIVE FILM FROM THE SCREEN!!!11!11!! the lens is made out of the softest plastic imaginable and it literally scratches by wiping it with a fiber cloth because of the dust between the lens and the fiber cloth......
oh shit, i removed the protective film... 😐
Lol I like how all these U.K, English, and British dudes say batteries lol.
Yeah, we say it liked "batcheries". Wierd, i know. xD
Brandon Salt i wish i had a british accent😥🔥🔥
"UK, English and British dudes..."
Dafuq? Just British would have sufficed.
Anyway - batteries. Who the fuck says batcheries? And what's wrong with saying batteries?
Diamond Dust lol no one said it was wrong at all lol what you mean ?
FrenZyUnboxing ok thank you
Just bought one awesome Brandon!!!! You should do a Gameboy Micro next. Tahnks for a good start to my day!!!!! :)
Awesome man, you'll love it! I'm trying to get my hands on one but so expensive! 😬
just a tip, dont remove the protective film. mine gets scratches from dust......
Thanks Mate for this great review :)
$49 on ebay?! Hell, a local retro gaming store of mine sells the actual Game Boys for $24.99. Why the heck would I pay more for a bootleg?
Not worth 49 bucks but if you can get it for like 35 its worth it. And it's superior to the actual game boy color
Is there the same kind of screen shutter as you move up and down in Pokemon like in the first GB boy Colour?
I also ordered the GB Boy Colour. I waited for about 3 weeks then it came and I picked it up. But as soon as I had opened it I saw that It wasn't the same box as the pictures, but I thought that they have maybe packaged it wrong or something. But when I did open it It was a clone of the GBP instead of the GBC. But thing I can say now is that, I got scammed by a company that makes replicas of Nintendo handhelds. :(
I don't know if the one I got off eBay has 60 - Or however many - games built in, I REALLY wish it was Green, Yellow, or White, but it IS Frontlit!! Not to mention the Interact HandyPak Color & PulsePak Color I got to attach to it!! So, No, I can NOT describe how psyched I am for all that!!
Hey, it just like the plug and play system for NES games.
So now, this one it's got all few more game boy games in 1.
->"Doesn't come out with batteries."
->Flips the gameboy and two batteries show up.
I chucked them in there before. ;)
Dummy
+Brandon Salt Your gameboy was still emballed with plastic and it was in its box. You are either lying or you have already touched your gameboy before (which I don't judge it's alright), but please if you did have touched your gameboy, tested it, etc. Don't put it back into its box/package just for the sake to take it off it and make it look like it's the first time you are trying it.
+Dalmain J Liking your own reply is egocentric/narcissic, please don't do it.
You really believe in unboxing videos, don't you?
Does this support the link cable for playing multiplayer games or Gameboy camera and printer?
Can I use a link cable with this game boy to trade Pokémon with an original game boy color ??
i love how hard this guy pronounces "R"
hes like steven merchant (you may know as wheatly from portal 2)
You look like Jonah Hill, nice video!
When I saw you put the P{okemon Blue into that beautiful transparent Crystal Blue GB Boy Colour, something felt complete.
in gen one if you had leech seed toxic and a drain move, you could get all the damage from toxic absorbed too :P
Also, like the original GameBoy Color, at the "GB title screen", you can press any direction + a/b button for a different color pallette!
ゴメスジョヴァンニ-Only when playing original GameBoy games.
Robert Wisdom Yup.
I actually ordered one the other day from the US from AliExpress. It was actually only $2 more to get it shipped from the US instead of China. It was $34, and using a coupon I had, I got it for $30. Anticipating it in the mail!
Wow, nice man! What colour did you get? Transparent?
The same color you got, transparent blue!
For $45 get an R4 card and a micro SDHC and bam! You've got full games with save f8le capabilities. I purchased 2 r4 cards for 19.95 plus shipping. On the official R43DS site. 😉
Great video though man. I'm a huge gameboy color fan. It was my first game device. ♡
Without the Infra-red you can't use Mystery-Gift from Silver/Gold Pokemons and some other game features.
I have it and i like it. The only prob its that u must keep batteries out when not usin it or runs out of
Wait, if its GB Boy, then that means its the Game Boy Boy.
Game Boy Boi
I have one of these and the clear blue one. The sound doesn't work without headphones and the screen freezes when I turn it off.
Really? I haven't tried the headphone jack and for now no freezing as of yet. Thanks for watching man.
lol I would steal my cousins gameboy with the snap on light to play in my room 😂😂😂
I have ordered one, too. Unfortunately, mine seems broken. It won't play much cartridges and it often crashes and sh*t. I guess it's because I ordered it in winter and they literally wrapped the paper packaging in some foil and that's it. Guess it got too cold :(
Oh really? That's a shame. :S
is it actually good or are you just low key selling them
Wait so if I put Pokemon inside and play I won't be able to save ??
supernova gaming-You can't save the games that are pre-installed in the system.
GB Boy Lol great video man keep it up
Thanks Steve, you the man!
"GB Boy" Game Boy Boy
does it has a low battery warning like blinking led?
That screen looks great!
Whose here for da giveaway! So excited!
Did you finish the metapod? ;)
YurtZoire Dermosus-I always hated metapod when I was a kid.
I am Chinese BUT I didn't even know we had this and I have a Original gameboy color （maybe it also a fake）。
But can it run *_a dead meme_* ???
This things are great but trust me they dont last long, I've bought 3 of them and only one of them lasted me more than 6 months
In our country a Fake gameboy would cost like 5-10 Dollars
You can reset by pressing select + start + A + B.
Is this a proper hardware replica or does it work via emulation?
I think it's a hardware replica.
So you can’t save your game progress?
No it's not. I have 2 of them and both of them crash and the sound goes out all the time. Good at first, but they last maybe 2 weeks before crapping out. Also the power switch broke on my first one. Very cheaply made.
Interesting, ive had mine for a month now and its fine.
@@RetroDodo and mine for two years. Works perfectly and it's awesome
so this is way better than a bit boy essentially is what I am hearing? it has some roms built in and it plays games which the bitboy doesnt. can you upload roms into it somehow? is there a sd slot? or usb port? i just want a cheap portable system I can add games to dang it :(
This clone has no USB connection, no SD slot and doesn't play ROMs. It's to be used with a cartridge collection if you got one.
But if you just want to play ROMS you may just use a cellphone with a controller designed for portable gaming?
I wonder if you can crack a GB cartridge with ROMS?
You can always use an Everdrive but that costs almost twice as much as the GB Boy Colour.
But I'd rather manufacture cartridges myself. The equipment for that doesn't seem to be that expensive.
Love the retro gaming stuff
this guy is british jonah hill
I got the transparent green one and play it almost everyday it's held up forever now
Lmao and I have Pokémon cock edition lmao
Nice man!
Hey whats the battery life? That's a huge contributor to me buying one.
I can't say i've used it enough yet to give you a solid answer, but it will be significantly less than the original due to its backlight screen. I've played 5 hours+ already and its still going strong.
I bought 2. They are great but the d-pad is NOT great. I would rather have a good d-pad and a decent screen than a great screen and a crappy d-pad. I guess I'll play with it a bit more and see if I can get used to the d-pad, but really that ruins it for me. It does depend on the game, though, how much of a bother it is. The slightly altered aspect ratio doesn't really bother me, but it's an issue for some people.
You know that the switch has been released right?
I need this and a fake import copy of Pokémon Gold version.^^ lol
Honestly, I'd just buy it for the screen and speaker (swap them into an official GBC) especially at that low of a price
45$ for that’s shit?! No LED?? Not worth it..
What is Brandon called when he is mad?
Brandon Salty
I seriously think that adding an SD card slot to either a retro or knockoff Gameboy to where you could play Nintendo ROMs on the thing too would make it the ultimate Gameboy, along with backlighting and maybe a rechargable battery, if it's not like the better GBA SP models that have the rechargable battery and the backlighting. I know if I could find someone who can modify my GBA SP to take an SD card and play physical cartridges as well as Gameboy through GBA ROMs, I would pay to have it done.
That would be awesome indeed! Thanks for stopping by man.
So are we all ignoring that this guy is a better looking, British, Jonah Hill?
Anyone know where you can buy one of these today?
Wish alliexpress
Nah, it's not better. Shitty build quality, awful dpad, and incorrect screen resolution and aspect rario.
It may seem like that but trust me, its better than you think. Admittedly no infrared and probably terrible cable connection, but i'd still rather take this on a road trip than my original. Thanks for watching.
Wrong! You can play in the dark, it's better than the original
I loved this video.keep up the good work😃
Thanks Vaidas!
can u sub to me cuz I think gonna quit yt cuz after the 5subs nobody subbed after that
btw the one sub is from my friend but I told her to
Odd that the GB Color version of Aladdin is the Sega Megadrive version.
Yeah, interesting indeed!
Are you fucking kidding me?It doesn't even has the central plastic thing on the d-pad?Is just the lighting that is better
xD
I dont know why they dont do a accu inside of this (like GBA, NDS)
Can i plug on TV by Jack to Av cable?
why is this recommended for me
*hears swearing* O.o *Sweats
Is it just me or the game boy said colour
What'd be funny is when Nintendo takes legal action for then pirating their games they published for the GBC
I have the advanced and I'm jealous
And how much was this and where did you get It
xD - The advance is sick! I wish they did an advance version of this. :)
Wtf I thought Jonah hill went downhill
I feel so glad that it actually isnt too bad
I guess it isnt game over for me :)
Damn. I may buy this.
I have. Pokemon silver version just riged the cmos battery cause mane one died /replaced it
Outside is correct, Inside electronics are very very cheap and bad... 2 examples:
-The internal clock is at 5mHz instead of 4.194mHz
-The audio synthesis is awfull xD
Brooooo I'm ordering one it's a good price broooo that back light brooo
New front light screen much more better 1:16
Is he the guy from 21 Jumpstreet :F so close looking ^^
This console is actually very good ... for the price.
For this price you'll get a decent console able to play all original gb/gbc cartridges, with a low battery consumption, a nice screen (even if ratio is not 100% good) and a good sound reproduction (all channels are present if earphones are used, but yes, there's a small bug with some rare stereo titles, nothing which is a big problem).
I bought 2, one for me, and one for my wife.
But in no way is it better than the original, excepted for the backlit screen.
And infrared led is FAKE ...
Can you do Pokemon Prism please?
Bulbasaur is super easy, type advantage over first 2 gyms for ez levels plus those status moves are sick late game. Bulbasaur is the best choice whether the amateurs realize it or not.
MA MAN KNOWS HIS POKEMON BLUE/RED! Legend!
has he played it yet? I'm new here...
Great video!.....waiting for the next giveaway....
Thanks man, much appreciated. :)
lol swag meets metal equals this guy : P
Can GB Boy Connect to earphone?
What's lickitung licking? That's what I want to know.
It does come with batt trees
But the game boy color can also play original game boy cartridges....
He said Color it’s colour
My friend has this and a few other chinese ripoffs, they're not better the quality shows. The awkwardness of the wider look is an immediate red flag, the weaker d-pad. It's neat that it has emulated games in one package but that's really the only good thing about it you can actually do that on a micro sd and put it in the 3DS if you know what you're doing, I've seen it done. That's cool for your collection though, but I agree with most here and as an oldschool gamer myself and Nintendo fan, definitely not better than the actual GB's.
Should I buy a Gameboy color (not the fake one) for $20?
Toneri Ōtsutsuki Definitely worth it!
Toneri Ōtsutsuki-No. It sucks. The worst GameBoy.
Toneri Ōtsutsuki I'm in love with the system, so $20 seems fair to me, just make sure it's not scratched to heck. For a couple dollars more, you can buy a nice wormlight for playing in poorly lit/dark areas; that way you can play it in sunlight or night time. :D
ゴメスジョヴァンニ Thanks
