Was this really necessary back in the day?
>>728754520No. We hunched under lamps on the edge of the couch or, at worst, burned through tons of AA batteries using wormlights.
Boomers be like>Yep, I'm ready to game
>>728754520I would just use the transfer pak to play Pokémon.
Why do zoomers need videos to play at 2x speed?
>>728754520Beat pausing between every street light
There's a free thing called THE SUN that you were supposed to be under in order to use a gameboy.
>>728754520Idk what that is but I did play on a gameboy
>>728755986>freeNot if politicians have anything to say about it
I just used one of these. The glare from the bulb was pretty bad, but it was either that, or not playing at all, because they weren't backlit.
>>728754520too bulky
>>728756881Oh fuck I remember having one of those. It was a piece of shit to keep on the Gameboy.
>>728756881I remember playing pokemon at the rythm of roadside lamp postsGood tiems
>>728754520yes, completely necessary. nobody ever played a game boy without that
you'll never finish without one
>>728756881What's behind-the-scene implication of the text? He's not their real child?
>>728758174Believe it or not anon not every ad used to be some sort of quip or pun.
>>728754757dude is building a gundam to play on lol
>>728755986>the sunYou never touched a gameboy in your life if you think they worked well in sunlight.
>>728757853 Based. You weren’t *really* gaming unless your Game Boy had the full Voltron setup-magnifying glass, side lights, external speakers, caffeine drip, and prayer. Those clamshell light-magnifier combos were like strapping a mech suit onto your handheld.
>>728754520>can't play in dark>light causes huge glarehow the fuck did anyone play on this thing?
>>728758265You say this but the ad is literally advertising a flashlight by saying>>728758174YOU CAN'T STAY IN THE DARK FOREVER...
>>728756881>>728754757>>728754520>this was okay but sega mega drive addons are a meme to this dayExplain it to me without sounding like a mentally deranged nintendo cultist.
>>728763194All of the gameboy add ons were accessories made by third party companies and completely unnecessary to play a game. Where the 32x and CD were official sega products and were required to play several games
>>728763194Segroids are so fucking stupid.
>>728763457>Where the 32x and CD were official sega productsAnd they also cost a gorillion dollars.
>>728763194That was not ok
>>728763194The lighting addons are pretty necessary to play gameboy in the dark or generally low light conditions. Everything else is a bit superfluous.
>>728763194Who the FUCK wants to smother your gaming console in 50 metric tons of plastic shit? I could care less if it was the Game Boy or the Game Gear, the only thing add-ons add is the regret of having purchased them in the first place.
HE'S GONNA TAKE YOU BACK TO THE PASTTO PUT BATTERIES UP YOUR GAMEBOY'S ASS
>>728754520Nobody bought those things.
>>728763194The Game Boy accessories didn't greatly contribute to Nintendo's exit of the hardware business
