Game Boy Color - Teal (Renewed)

Item came well packaged and works great! Appearance of Gameboy color sounds great and game play is awesome.

Very Nostalgic! I get to play Tetris without the blue screen lighting of my phone. Plus the GameBoy uses batteries. Having it has been therapeutic for me. Refurbished doesn’t mean lack of quality. Money well spent!

Item as described

Works like new.

UPDATE; EDIT: After I started using the gameboy it started working just fine with everything. The left D-Pad is registering, the power button is fine, I even tested the audio Jack with plug in headphones and the left and right side worked perfectly. Only reason no 5 star is some VERY minor cosmetic "damage" for lack of better term. A few scuffs on the body of the console, but nothing affecting play/usability. The screen even had that little peel away plastic like you get on a cell phone even though it came in generic packaging. I read the reviews, broke down and bought one, and I have to give it 3.5 to 4 stars only because the power button on it needs to be slightly toggled before it actually turns on and registers the game loading, the Left button on the D-Pad seems to be off center so it takes a minute to get the device to register a press down on it, if not a quick shake of the handheld to wriggle around the inside mechanics, and after a power off, there is a good 2 to 3 second freeze frame of whatever game played, that takes s bit to fade out. Trying to decide if I want to take wathe time to pay shipping and send it back, in hopes for a better working model, but I'm not sure yet. Will try to repost with a follow up.

It is a good handheld device

I ordered two of these. The first arrived and was in fantastic condition but when I pressed the different buttons they all required a lot more strength to depress then what the Nintendo Gameboys buttons on all of the Gameboy systems usually require to depress the buttons. This had to have been because the Refurb business Amazon uses put brand new after market membranes on the Gameboy and this is fine however if they are going to do this they need to put ones on that are closer to what the original feel like. These membranes were so hard to press that it would have fatigued my hands quickly. I returned it and placed another order for another gameboy color. When the new one arrived it was not in the Excellent condition that was claimed by the Refub business on Amazon and had yellow resin all along the sides of the body of the Gameboy and part of the gameboy on the corner was loose. The other major issue is that the A button did not function right and you had to push down really hard to get a response. Also the select button required a lot strength to push down. It is very upsetting that these systems do not go through a better QA process.

I was a little hesitant when I bought this, afraid that it might not work or might stop working, but it's still working great!
