>Want a Game Boy Micro cause they're rad looking
>Check ebay
>$150 minimum
The fuck is wrong with people? Why pay this much for something you can emulate on a shitty cellphone let alone a PC or Rasberry pi or vita.
expensive retro Game collectors are pretty fucking stupid.

Its because
A. Theres a demand for it
and
B. People are willing to pay that much
Its literally people like YOU that drive up price.
t. Made a living off of reselling video games
>Want to buy piece of shit useless gimmick
>Why is price so high wtf
Because retards like you keep buying them
They're not making anymore and the ones that are in good condition are always going to cost money. I traded a guitar capo for mine in like 2006
Obviously I didnt fucking buy it you fucking idiot
Buy one from a jap
its shit
i bought one and within seconds knew i made a mistake
its too fucking small
I always thought it'd go down like this - it looks cool but can you honestly play a game properly on it? I understand the idea is to bust this out on a bus or something and look like a moron, so being portable and small is fine.. but that thing is literally tiny
>Obviously I didnt fucking buy it you fucking idiot
Wow, really?!
Get an SP instead. The Micro was basically made to end up as an over-priced collector's gimmick. It's virtually unplayable if you're above the age of 12, it's just too fucking small.
i couldnt read text in an rpg without without horrible eye strain.
I ended up just using it for dr mario until the listing for selling it on ebay ended
Anyone buying this thing?

I enjoy my pocket gaming, but holy fuck that premium.
>insinuates OP buys thing to further his argument
>OP states he didn't
Have fun in the real world with that attitude, son.
Any good faceplate replacements?
Naa, I have the RG350M, which is more capable in terms of what systems it can play. Even once you install CFW on the Analog Pocket, you're still probably not going beyond the SNES/Genesis in terms of what cores it will be able to run. Even if you could run PS1 games on it, it lacks the second set of shoulder buttons it would need to take advantage of it.
The Gameboy Micro is the Pabst Blue Ribbon of portable consoles, prove me wrong
why would i buy something that i need original cartridges for, its fucking gameboy, phones from 2010 can emulate it
>200 Itchy&Scratchy bucks
>doesn't play the entire library
Explain that shit to me.

Good luck waiting for them to restock this kind of shit.
>OP went looking to buy it
>t-this isn't p-proof that there's demand
LMFAO
>mahogany
>stone
>i want thing
>other people want thing too
>wtf are they retarded don't they know they can just ? the people who want thing sure are stupid!
Textbook.
A week later a patch will "mysteriously" release that unlocks support for loading ROMs.
The thing has a microSD port for a reason.
>collectors are dumb
nothing new here
Your alternative is chink repro shit, which will always have foggy lenses. Bluishsquirrel used to make them, but I think his store is gone. Rosecoloredgaming is the only other place making decent plates at this point, so far as I know.
I guess you could buy some Nintendo plates, but all of the good ones are expensive.
>why would i buy something that i need original cartridges for
For subhumans like pic related who literally believe that playing using original carts is equivalent to listening to an album on vinyl.
youre too late 2 year ago i bought one for 50 bucks
together with a flash card its a blast
There is only two reasons to buy a retro system:
>to play software on it's original hardware which is always the ideal
>to collect
Both drive the price up because old means dwindling quantity of working systems and, in this specific instance, the piece of hardware is shit so it's literally only for collectors who get gouged.
They encourage emulation though.
>They encourage emulation though.
Since when?
Because of retards like you.
>wow this thing looks cool I want it
>price goes up
>wow this looks retro can't wait to show it off to my friends
>price goes up again
>wow this looks like something I can brag about on Zig Forums (this is you)
>WHAT THE FUCK PEOPLE BUY THING AND PAY FOR THING I THOUGHT EMULATORS MADE THESE THINGS FREE
Since... Ever? I don't follow the day to day of /incel/ minutae so you'll have to link me where he came out against it.
>$199
That has to be a joke. Stop shilling. We are not buying your overpriced chink junk.
Repeatedly? They constantly say that playing on the original hardware, with the original cartridge, is the only legitimate way to play. They look down their nose at emulation, and they're also brainlets who can barely use a PC (in James' case he uses a Mac).
