2.5 hours of battery life? Damn, forget this! I can watch a move longer than this! Where's the power cord on this thing? Better stock up on the batteries if it doesn't have one!!


Chance prepares the favored mind. Look up once in a while and you might learn something. - BLUEBOY

think the average life span for batteries on a nintendo gameboy was about 2.5hours but we use to use rechargables.

No the original gameboy goes 20-30 hours easy on 4 AA alkaline batteries. I still have one which my 5 year old sometimes plays with.

Remember all, where's the game cartridges at? If they were able to re-license and re-release game cartridges it would be a great buy. Forget that. I have 31 carts but that wont make me go out and buy this. There are other methods to reproduce game play on other portable devices.

As both of the people before me should know, your methods are illegal, at least in the U.S. This is a great investment for someone who has tons of carts from the 90s.

Bah. I'll just play SNES games on my Evo 3D...

i thought if you owned the original carts its legal to have an emulated version.

on another note i sold my snes and games in 2002 to buy beer for my m8s 18th birthday party.
