Broodstar’s Game Boy Collection ~updated 23.08.2014~

[Broodstar]

Sad week, I had to sell my entire Sega collection to support my participation in the World Magic Cup Qualifiers. Sold it for about 200$ and invested the money in my magic the gathering deck.
The good thing is that I finished on the 3rd place and won a lot of prizes.
And I have two more Qualifiers to attend to

Regarding the Magic the Gathering qualifiers all went well, got two top 8's and a lot of prizes. I've sold some of the prizes and started again to invest in my Game Boy collection.

So, the first games that arrived are:

Every time I come to this thread I feel jealous of that copy of Stranded Kids.

One day that game will be mine! One day...

Nice additions to the library too, what else do you have on the way? I've been needing to build my Game Boy library myself - I have a lot of the obvious big name franchises like Mario, Metroid, Pokémon, Zelda and Mega Man, but much less of the unique Game Boy games that were one offs (although I have a few, like Catrap and Revenge of the 'Gator).

I know, i love that game too and I've made some financial sacrifices to get it.

I'm also negotiating now for a loose copy of Trip World that looks very good. I've managed to drop the price from 125$ to 75$. But... i don't have the money and I'm desperate

I don't have the money because i've payed for several cartridges that are on the way: The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons, Daffy Duck: The Marvin Missions and Duck Tales 2.

Oh, i love Revenge of the 'Gator I'm a sucker for pinball games and sadly i don't have any.

Wow, that should be the crown jewel of any Game Boy collection. I'm not sure I could ever justify that one to myself to be honest - although I really enjoy the game and think it's graphically amazin for classic game boy, I think I'll be sticking to my 3DS Virtual Console download of it instead of forking out.

I've never played the latter two, but Seasons is good stuff.

Yeah, it's pretty good, but I suck at it. Pokémon Pinball is still my favourite pinball game on GB though!

So... Duck Dodgers joined the party:


I can't wait till next week, it's gonna be the best week ever. Besides Oracle of Seasons, Duck Tales 2 and a pretty common F1 Race, Trip World is on it's way

[Broodstar]

This little jewel is sitting on my desk at work right now:

These cartridges came today:

I've paid 60$ for Trip world, 8$ for Duck Tales 2 and F1 Race and 11$ for Oracle of Seasons.

Trip World and F1 are impeccable, Zelda needs to be cleaned and the sticker is not in perfect shape and Duck Tales needs the sticker to be glued (at least is in one piece).

Added Minish Cap and Blaster Master Boy.

Finally got Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone to complete the two cartridges series for GBC:



And found this little retro gem at 3$ in a random supermarket:

Got this superb game yesterday and played it all night (no need to say that now I'm at work and barely keeping my eyes open):
Bionic Commando

Nice collection man. I like how you use card sleeves to hold the carts.
