Thanks!
I wasn't expecting any positive feedback because i always thought that my collection is still to small to post it :D

Nice games!

And no collection is "too small". I'd rather see a tiny, focused collection that means a lot to the owner than a huge wall of expensive games bought simply for bragging rights.

That binder is an excellent idea for storage. I'll have to pick one up myself, my GB games look pretty stupid in the little stacks they're in right now.

2. Donkey Kong, the '94 game. Oh how i've waited for this game... it was 6$ and in mint condition (no box).
3. And Bubble Ghost.

I just bought Wario Land 2 and Donkey Kong '94 on here the other week. Maybe I should start playing them.

Duck Tales joined the party yesterday.
Played it (fun game) while watching France vs England (ugly game) at Euro2012.

I'm jealous. I had so many of those games, but I lost half of them in a move. :cry:

Real nice condition stuff too. It's hard to keep those Grey Game Boy games looking mint.

Same story here, I used to have a smaller collection of gb games and some consoles but I had to sell them before moving to my new house (needed the money for the move and back then I wasn’t collecting). I’m always sad/melancholic when I’m thinking of what I’ve lost back then.

I’m a maniac when it comes to cleaning my consoles and cartridges; I even use needles to clean the very small dirt spots that get in the “Nintendo Game Boy” logo from the cartridge.

I’ve just bought a Zelda Minish Cap and I’m dying that I cannot fix the sticker that is a little ripped. So, Minish Cap added to the family :D

Added a GBA SP ASG 101 to my collection. Finally got one with a perfect screen, no scratches, no dead pixels, no dust inside...

Now I must replace the case, cause it's pink :D . Tho i must say that i like it pink in a kinky geek way: it's kinda like my ... other girl -i hope my wife doesn't read this-.

really starting to look good dood! There was a time where I was going for an entire US licensed collection of original GB carts (and possibly GBC as well). I had hundredsssss of them. But that became really overwhelming. I just recently starting casually re-collecting GB stuff again as well, BUT I'm doing it different this time. I'm only collecting CIB games, just like I do with my other consoles. It's certainly way pricier this way, so I'm going slow and just looking for important games (to me) and not rushing it like I used to. Prioritizing which games I really want --> ie, ones I really will play. Anyway, /personal-derailment. Keep it up! :D

EDIT: Oh, and btw, how is Four Heroes of Light anyway?
