[DeWarioFreak]

Funky Junk Brother!

[UKwildcatTV]

Oh, the good ole' days...

[junitono1]

When I was 6 years old, I thought that's how they really manufactured them...

[Tan1gonz]

when is this commercial from??

[Nicksolo85]

@Tan1gonz the late 90s like maybe 1997 ish.

[lafondabelldr2330]

I have the red one. I traded it for a old xbox. Best thing I ever got. The batteries last on mine.

[NESAtariSegaNerd]

@pooptrooplala Heh heh those pants have GAME BOY POCKETS! ;p

[LifelessLife85]

[545416855987988666]

CHILD PROPAGANDA!

[ms13goku]

[MrLiamCR]

[ThePichuThunder]

So THAT how Game Boy Pockets are made....

[PlayboyTheHunterxD]

[rubenmatrix8]

una persona no tuvo infancia O_o

[mrmogony123]

I remember watching this advert for the first time, it's stuck in my head ever since. Fantastic stuff.

[MegaSeanO1]

0:10 original gamecube

[TheMudkip12]

i wish game commercials today were like this...

[SqwishSqwash]

at 0:21 how come the sticker on the back didn't get painted?

at 0:26 why the fuk didn't his pocket turn red from the wet paint??? XD

[IcePalaceIsIcey]

I think I'll go order one of those in seven seconds.

[LirisFR]

my god, remember this add, and bought the pocket just after saw it.

[Lazymob]

wow i can actually remember this commercial! how much did the Gameboy pocket cost back in the days?

[swirkass]

@Lazymob i dont know but im guessing it was like over 90 bucks if im correct

[PortalJumper98]

why didnt nintendo make a limited edition game boy pocket and color with the original game boy color screen? thumbs up if you agree.

[monny287]

I have a Gameboy pocket. I still play it, though it's a battery-sucker. :(

[BloodySawBlade]

@monny287 It's one of the best battery suckers I ever bought. Not like today's crap on the market.

[mexamexo8]

mom, where do gameboys come from?

[brainstar64]

If that ever happen to my gameboy it will be broken.

[3ComboTheAnimator]

Cool , I have one game boy pocket , but I want game boy advance.

[InOtherNews1]

i wonder if they have those cube ones

[TheTKCreborn]

i used to think it was gross when the Game boy was crushed at 0:13 and the guy says it's thinner. I don't know why XD

[johnjvrambo]

I bought 1 of these when Walmart clearenced it out for $20. It was WAY better than the 3 original ones that I have.

[FC1032]

I actually thought thats how my Gameboy was made as a kid :p...

[Bradkalproductions]

now I know how gbp are made =3

[fook123]

Wow... I remember this commercial, I wanted it, and never got a gameboy until the color.

[Nevermore2007]

stick it in your pocket, man this was a awesome commerial

[videogamepimp22]

i just got a game boy pocket today at a yardsale for only 2 bucks its so cool best game boy in my opinion

[eletricdragonrulez]

@videogamepimp22 you lucky son of a bitch

[DSboy64]

@videogamepimp22 i herd somone on youtube get a gameboy advance sp for 2 bucks at a yard sale WITH a free gba game LOL>:D

[yozpho]

It's so sad. These things are going for the same price as an Xbox 360 on Amazon right now :( ... Remember when everyone got bored with their gameboys and just started giving them away..

[tonky24]

@yozpho Smae price as an xbox 360? Unless it was a limeted addition one or was mint in its box then i don't think it would be that much. I picked up my yellow pocket last year for 7 dollars.

[llIIIlIIllIIIlIIlllI]

0:26 I wonder if that kid would be walking if that was a dick

[gabriel11211]

my dad bought like 2 original game boys and 1 of these and with GAMES! wow i didnt even know these even existed and now i own one in black wow i got lucky

[neoYTPism]

So basically they marketed this by making it look like it was Game Boy after it got crushed, then sprayed with paint. Yeah, real appealing there. [/sarcasm]

[yozpho]

@neoYTPism .... yeah.... it's called marketing to children. I remember this commercial..

[yozpho]

@neoYTPism .... yeah.... it's called marketing to children. I remember this commercial..

[Zazzy234]

ah the memories....

[SOUTHWESTENZ]

ive got the clear one

[lachieshocker]

@SOUTHWESTENZ I had the blue one, until my brothers got into a fight and Chris had it in his pocket. T_T

[10V3yah]

LOOK AT HIS PANTS.

[EternalSaber]

i had a red one. ^_^

[spyder1138]

I remember when I first saw this commercial. Wow that was a long time ago.

[screwattackfan]

I got black

[zantomun]

Ice Blue representin

[2047alvi]

one of my favorite commercials of all time. and im sorry i sold my gameboy pocket 15 years ago, now i cant get it back :(

[ScioFantasia]

Back then, commercials were designed thoroughly, and that is why people still remember them now and will remember them forever. Commercials of today are just stupid and I bet that no one will remember them.

[specter96]

Fuck yeah. I remember this. the only part i remembered was how they painted it

[indigograves]

Just got a transparent one from a thrift store for $10. Really worth it.

[thelogsterz]

when did they come out?

[TheColorPaul]

that kid's pocket is a black hole.

[NGMan62]

@TheColorPaul That's a boy, you vile idiot.

[TheColorPaul]

@NGMan62 lol insult #FAIL you can call a boy a kid, too you vile idiot

[NGMan62]

@TheColorPaul Except that it's idiots like you who do not regard a boy by their male gender and call them the unisex word "kid" while still calling girls girls because they're female.

[meganaut123]

am i the only one to here a wobuffet @ 0:26?

[yungloc77]

i got the green one

[FreedomGotAnAK]

what the shit.

putting a gameboy in your back pocket is a fucking terrible...

TERRIBLE...

idea.

[Ponnybit]

love the snobb dance music from the 90's

[musican67557]

man.I still play my GBC and GP to this day but I wish they still made games for the gameboy though....

[Queenp001]

omg childhood memories are coming back to me.....

[shinymew1256]

0:10 I want this gameboy

[ExtremeBogom]

The reasons I liked this gameboy version was, because they improved the screen, by making it sharper, with better light-to-dark ratio.

It was the perfect size too, like the gb color.

I still think the GB pocket and color are the most comfortable handhelds I've ever used.

Notice how their all horizontal based now? :(

Vertical handhelds rock.

[TheXIPHONE]

u know i think this is how they were nade

[mrpokemaster2k10]

this ad made me beg my mom and dad for a gameboy pocket but they never bought me it the only system they ever bought me was a wii i was given most of my systems by my uncle and I bought 4 of them (nes, snes, gb pocket and gb colour)

[nessnes64]

i guess the silver ones are ones the machine missed

[InfernoPhoenix322]

[TheeRobotJohny]

[Andy120290Returns]

I remember seeing this commercial when I was younger.

[OndskapensHersker]

damn, i remember this commercial so well.

i also remember thet day i got one from my mom. i was so happy, you cant believe it.

[TheDevineEvil1987]

I remember I got this and Pokemon Blue from my Grandma when I finished Grade 4. Good times. 8-)

[MattTheSaiyan]

I got one of those. Still a fun handheld, worth getting 2nd hand.

[beaubenski]

[iJustDontGiveAShit]

[KingFujiboi]

[Noodle52]

ahhh so that's how they made them! lol i love 90's commercials

[Chompeto]

they are like pocket computers

[hondolespaul]

This was the Game Boy I always wanted, but never got...until last year.

[fallentopieces]

@hondolespaul Lol it's funny how we end up buying all the things we wanted when we were children when we finally have money.... im now on the hunt for N64

[hondolespaul]

I just have a tendency to wait for things for way too long. I have a Nintendo 64 with a vast selection of cartridges to choose from. Don't know if I want to sell everything yet or not.

[2047alvi]

@hondolespaul wow how did you get one? back then i did get one but then made a mistake, i sold it. now i want it again. i had the transparent one.

[Roweanos212]

@2047alvi amazon.com

[Roweanos212]

@hondolespaul the gameboy i never new about till 2 months ago, now i got one

[zztopis]

my brother had a dark blue one.

[SuperVpower]

Just got one @ garage sale for 2 bucks.

(I have a game boy color. i'm a nerd, i know.)

But hey, still better than the original (which I am still looking for).

[Crazywredd]

@SuperVpower got a stack of em... got em on sale on ebay

[Amit93]

i rememeber this commercial.

[zoxsk8]

wow i remember this

[hoewingchan]

My bor got silver one with pocketmonsters red back in 96 it was $50.00

the thing doesn't work anymore If any body wants to buy it for parts give me a message

[tarlin101]

lol. . .long time since that. . .

[5k4k1dhtp]

I remember this commercial, I shit my pants.

But then they came out with the game boy color a year later, lol.

[politoed2000]

is the gameboy pocket commercial was made in 1991?

[Poleyonline]

probably 96

[blackychiny]

FOUND IT!!! :D i remember this commercial..came 1 year before gameboy color luckly i waited :D

[VaderNES]

I do not like the Game Boy Pocket. It eliminates one of the greatest things about the original Game Boy: comfort. I will stick with my original 1989 Game Boy, which fits into my pocket anyway.

[Barrylocke]

wow, I could never get my old Brick game boy to fit into my pocket :/

[VaderNES]

Mine fits in the pocket of all of my pairs of pants, even gym shorts.

[robotwo]

I have a transparent GB Pocket and a Yellow GB

[papercanfly]

would you sell the battery cover of .99-$1.99?

[robotwo]

Sorry :c , I need them myself ^^;

[papercanfly]

alright. If you ever change your mind let me know...

[jonasvalero]

i used to have one greenish black. it was badass because it was compact and two batteries!

[LeGEndPAiNtBallER32]

I remember getting one of these in the see through purple when I was four or five.

[LOLDISNEYLAND]

I had the very first game boy with the green screen.. they should have called it the "brick boy" because I later used it as a door stop when I got my game boy pocket. :D

[1Just3Mod37]

game boys pwn but they are so hard to get now since they stopped making them. =(

[lmjsclone]

put it in your pocket sit down and let the screen crack

[kooliokooliokoolio]

first game boy i ever had :)

[Gradey6]

SAME

[tug97]

I got a green one.

[Gradey6]

Blue.

[Mephiles200108420]

I'm glad the Gameboy Micro was more successful than this. At least the Micro was more along the lines of being modified... =)

[juffan]

what were the 6 colors... yellow, red, green, black....blue? and grey?

[scrap104]

Yep, those are indeed the 6 colors.

[MarvLink]

@juffan It's more like silver-metalic finish. It was so very cool.

[Doomsfall]

@juffan There is also a transparent version.

[abysslord16]

@juffan i had a gold one!

[Swordsage]

Ah, the good old Game Boy Pocket. I've owned all versions of the Game Boy that came out, but the Pocket will always be my favorite. It may not have had the color of the Game Boy Color, or was as sophisticated as the Game Boy Advance, but there's just something about the pocket that just gives it that extra bit of charm for me. It was small, slim, lightweight, could fit into my shirt pocket, and played all the classic games I lived on my old gray brick original. I miss that little thing.

[stanthecanadianman]

bah not as good as the original game boy :P i got two of em

[KajiRider1997]

Same here non of them work though XD

[stanthecanadianman]

lol mine just need batteries lol gotta go find 8 AAs XD

[NotSoCoolKyle]

Holy crap! I'm 15 and a half, and I still remember this commercial! I must have been three or four the last time I saw this!

Ah, the good ol' days. You know, when you could take Pokemon out and not be judged.

I miss my childhood...

[apbrit2009]

yeah, i miss those days too

man, i remember getting a gameboy color for christmas

but i rarely used it, even back then i was a pc gamer

which is another reason i miss those days: pc games were better back then

now it's just the sims and more WoW clones

[Dialgadude]

oh my god I remember this commercial! I thought it was a figment of my imagination when I was a kid, but this confirms it!

Favorited!

[tug97]

Pretty cool.

[AJBSONIC]

I remember a commercial similar to this, only the GBPs were assembly-line dropped into vats of color (rather than being shot at).

[animefreak00007]

I remember this commercial, this is the one I saw back before I got mine when I was like 7 yrs old, I wanted the red one but ended up getting a silvery blue one which I think is cooler now than I did back then

[disantismarco]

is that how they make them

[kalcaron]

Yes.

[pokemon56789]

no but it looks like it to draw people to buying it...at least thats my opinion.

[schmity007]

i really prefer the old nintendo over the new wii age nintendo. You know back when they had a lot more attitude.

[tekkentool]

AAAHTITOOOD

[Zorianff9]

Nostalgia, thank you very much, Sweet Memories.

[miguel29092]

Yeahh!

[scrap104]

I played Pokemon (80hrs on Blue & 40hrs on Gold) so much the LCD has a black smudge in the center where the character sprite was located.

[pokemon56789]

I have gold on VBA(visual boy advance)

I had silver but my files kept deleting so i gave it to my friend.

Yes, i told him it delets files...

[ChilledLemons]

@scrap104 Wait....howd you play Gold on a GB pocket? Its a color game...

[scrap104]

@ChilledLemons Gold & Silver were compatible with the older Game Boys and the Super Game Boy.

[Jorbs3210]

@scrap104 And so were all the GBC games that came in a black cartridge.

[puckbunniehater]

*sigh* i miss the '90s...

good old gameboys were the best

[MarkZdunich]

thats a cool factory

[koopa0999]

i want the fat chunky cube gameboy lol

[danmatt7193]

lol koopa0999 i was just bout 2 say that!

[Magmaster12]

That person is going to forget its in his back pocket and crush it

[phatalityprophet]

this is a jewel

[stevenH463]

awsome advert

[metamano]

now thats good advertisment right there

[tktru]

Makes me want a Game Boy Pocket again...twelve years later.
