So I found a GameBoy...

Same place I found those Atari games, I went back today and one of the employees said they had an old GameBoy in the back.

What a fine piece.

Original GameBoy, working, in great condition, 4 games (Super Mario Land, Alleyway, and 2 others I forgot), and a carrying case. $53.

Think I could buy it and resell it for a decent amount? Maybe even here on the temp...

You mean the original fatty grey gameboy? I own one as well, unfortunately it isn't the most costly little thing :/ I bought mine for 5$ though, and it came with pokemon blue. Garage sales man :)

Yeah the store is never going to come close to that. They started the price at $63, and they won't go any lower than half that, more than likely.

If you're keeping it, thats cool, if you're trying to turn it around for a profit, I wouldn't bank on that.

Probably not. The old gameboy (the grey brick) had so many of them created, and plus, those things lasted through hell and back.

If you're talking about this one from the Gulf War, according to Nintendo only the screen was replaced; original Gameboy screens sucked because they kept developing dead lines of pixels, just like the replacement screen in the torched one
