I really enjoyed all of this series. The Game Boy was my lifeline as a kid, and reading your articles on the game really brought on the warm fuzzies. I am seriously jealous of your collection, though.. you got some really awesome games! All I have left are Kirby's Dream Land, Dr. Mario, and Pokemon Red. Lost my Link's Awakening at some point. D:
Oh how I miss my Atomic Purple Game Boy Color... it's such a magnificent library of games that shamelessly Nintendo halted when the GameBoy Micro and DS spawned in the market.
I just wonder if the incoming games for a new generation of portable system will be as charming, but that could be hard to achieve. Most of the magic on the Game Boy was the 2D simplicity that relied behind the games, perhaps we will find new geniuses aside Hal, GameFreak, Rareware, Capcom and Intelligent Systems. it all parts from the future.

Even though I'm incredibly happy with my DS (given to me as a hand-me-down gift), I'll always miss my lime green GB Color.
Your posts were very informative and enjoyable, even if I didn't particularly like the games. This will be a missed series.

This along with Zen's Gameboy post inspired me to go out and purchase an original Gameboy, and a Gameboy Pocket (they cost me $25 total) as well as a few games. Though, I purchased a Color a few months ago.
So far I've purchased, Metal Gear Solid, Pokemon Yellow, Kirby's Dreamland, Tetris, Megaman II, and Megaman III.
I should hate you for making me spend money, but I don't. I love you.

Don't worry dude its not just you, since I started doing this thing I've bought nearly 30 Game Boy games, 2 Game Boy Pockets (the first one has too many scratches and I wanted one that looked nice), a Game Boy Color, a original Game Boy, a boxed game Boy micro and I'm waiting on a Back lit GBASP. I've spent over 500 Aus on Game Boy stuff in the last few months. Damn I need something constructive to spend my money on.

I've enjoyed all of the write-ups I managed to read. Nice personal retrospective! When the Game Crazy and Gamestop chains here started clearing out all of their old cartridge games at discount prices I really went on the hunt for GB games. My collection bloomed in a very short time.
And then last year I found Shantae for $3, and never miss an opportunity to mention that :P
If you haven't checked out Wario Land 3, it's highly recommended.
