Thnx a lot for the nostalgia! Technology and gaming has advanced so much today.. 3D and stuff, that sometimes we'd rather wish to get back into the 8-bit era and enjoy the simplistic pleasures it had to offer.
I still have mine! not the printer, just the camera. i never got the printer...maybe i'll get one on ebay.... OOOHH, they should remake the printer for the DSi. that would be awsome <3
The plug wouldn't fit in to the SP very well because the recharge/accessory port on the SP isn't an original Game Boy link/accessory port.
After playing Pokemon a bit, and trying to print out things from the Pokedex, I was curious as to what a Game Boy Printer was. I really didn't think that it was a real item until I saw one on eBay at some point. I am thinking of buying one, and I thank you for posting this review of the printer and the Game Boy Camera!
no it dosn't use ink its thermal thats why u need special paper and also to make the picture right side up if its upside down when taking picture press select an then up and choose the icon with the up down arrows
ah yes this is essential if you want to call yourself a gameboy collector although it was sort of a short lived fad (five years) it was extremly popular for it's time and also temprarily held the record for the worlds smallest digital camera! and many kids owned this for an affordable price print paper isn't that hard to come by since many homebrewes are sold but original papaer goes for a little bit extra. this goes right next to the adorable game boy pocket as a treasure
Wow, the printer was alot cooler than I ever thought :o
First time I saw it, for like...10 years ago *hehe* I thought "wow..a printer" but I've never ever seen it in a store.. I was just 8-9 years old back then, so I didn't know anything elses than to play, hehe.
I remember playing Zelda Link's Awakening DX and Super Mario Bros DX and the galleries had print options. I used to think "I want a Gameboy Printer, someday, I might see one in the store," I never did, in fact, it wasn't until watching this video when I found out what one looks like.
I bought a gameboy printer ant a flea market for a buck several years ago. never stopped working. still buried in my room somewhere. This may have inspired me to dig it out
Its so wierd why nintendo made all those really cool gadgets for the retro consoles and none for the new consoles like ds or wii be cause thatll be will really good on a ds?
The game boy printer uses thermal paper, like the kind receipts are printed on. It just burns the image into the paper. As for why it's not printing dark enough, I'm not sure. Are the batteries good? Some games (such as pokemon) have settings for print darkness.
I remember I would always play pokemon crystal and gold and there would always be the button that said print and I would click it and it would say "ERROR PRINTER NOT CONNECTED" I had no clue how to connect it to a printer
i just bought a game boy printer and all the pics i take are faded and i can't see them i have tried new paper and it still doesn't work. can anyone help?
In the uk a managed to pick up an unboxed camera and printer for around £7 no cable though. A few days later at a shop called cash generator ( basicially one of those video game and electrical style pawn shops I guess) I picked one up for £1.99 again unboxed and cable-less
can someone help? my printer comes out very bright and faded you can barely see it. is it possible that the roll can be damaged from being in heat, cause i bought it new on ebay and was wondering D: help!
