O.K., clear is not color. Black really does seem very colorful either. What weird GB colors. Their battery life wasn't all that great either. Good thing the actual GB Color was released.
The battery life is the best of all handheld consoles at a whopping 35 hours. No other handheld console has such a long battery life. I own one myself (one made in 1989), and I change the batteries yearly, and I play it all the time. Bad battery life my arse.
Which raises the question, if Sega couldn't make six batteries last long, how did Nintendo make four go on for such a long life? Later, that went down to two batteries, making the Game Boy Color even more incomprehensibly good.
That's relatively easy to figure out. The Game Gear was a more powerful system, displayed color, and had a backlight. While always nice to have, these features drained power like nobody's business.
Also, keep in mind that the Gameboy Color was released seven years after the Game Gear and even then it did not have a backlight. Nintendo did not have a backlit portable system until the GBA-SP came out.
They just played it smart and focused on Batteries, Portability, and most importantly, Games.
the color edition s of the gameboy,s are rare.but the gameboy pocket editions are easy to find but the white colored gameboypocket is averagely hard to find mmm.
I used to have the yellow one :D it was wierd, i was jelouse of my friends having the gray gameboy and they where jelouse of me having the yellow one XD
I had my first gameboy in 1993 :) christmas. First games where Super Mario Land and Donkey Kong.. Later in 1998 I bought Pokemon Red and Blue, Silver, Crystal etc :) POKEMON RULES! Later on I bought Gameboy Purple clear color :)
I have a clear one. We bought it at a garage sale a years ago. It wasn't in great condition and it's stayed the same. I want to clean it on the inside.
i had the green one, my brother had the seethrough purple, i really wanted the red one, but as long as i could play pokemon it didnt matter

These gameboys came out around 1995. They wanted to make it the same as the original grey one, only in different color and better sound.
Though the sale of these was not the best, so only a year later in 1996 they bought out the gameboy pocket.
