I might be able to get a few random WS games, but nothing substantial. I can't go out of my way to get them, unfortunately. Leaving Japan in a month!

Looking at youtube videos and reviews it sounds and looks like the wonderswan monochrome was quite poor,the color was very good but the crystal really improved visual quality,almost to the point where good lighting was hardly needed.If you have the spare money i'd go for the best,wonderswan crystal,especially as the games look fantastic.I also know a cheaper place for the games to order from japan but they are carts only.
I have the lynx 2.It's incredible.get it. :mrgreen:

Yes,i have heard some people say that they prefer the ws colour as they can use the brightness switch to get the best picture in all lighting conditions,but most people seem to say that the crystal screen is better even without the brightness adjuster.It certainly looks better on youtube.So i would still go for the ws crystal.

The games are excellent but a bit pricey here in u.k.,certainly at least £7,50 and up from there,so if you can get a package of a ws crystal WITH some games included,that would be good.

I can't remember the cheaper ws colour game site but i'll have another look and post back soon.

wow,great.the ws was streets ahead of its competitor,the gameboy color.I've got a neo geo pocket colour,that too was serious competition,a better system but the games were a bit more variable in quality than the gameboy.Amazingly enough,the brightest non lit screen is on the game.com! streets ahead of all the others,it's unfortunate about the screen blur and the appalling games.
