    I had the OG Gameboy version of the Handy-pak. It had an added lanyard and it had a funky battery adapter to run off the Gameboy's batteries instead of having its own... because the Gameboy had such great battery life to begin with. Problem was the tabs on the joystick would break off, rendering it pretty much useless.

    8:30 I own one of those game genies. Fun fact. If you mod it by cutting away a small portion of the back, you can use it on your gameboy SP or gameboy color. I used it to hack in Mew into pokemon :)

    I remember only buying one accessory for my DMG, and that was The Light Boy, which was just the lighted magnified screen add on. For my GBA, I only bought the Rechargeable Battey adapter. Just avoided many of them as at the time I saw them as a waste of money, and did not foresee them being collector items.

    Game Genie! Who can forget those? Been rocking those since NES! Booster Boy I think looks like 1 I wanted because it was like turning the GameBoy into a mini arcade cabinet kind of, like the little Donkey Kong game the Mogwai play around with in Gremlins.
    I had something called HandyBoy, which had flip out speakers, screen magnifier, and these weird butttons and thumb pad analog.

    My dad had an old gameboy with lots of games and almost perfect condition boxes of the console and game, and one of the games was f1-race. The game was missing but it did still have the four player adapter, and it's cool to look at. Saldy none of my friends have gameboys so i can't use it, but it looks handy.

    I know that you need the new Retroad S Plus from Ali-Express with the gameboy color adapter. 7" HDMI Gameboy Color. No multiple players but a gem. I do think you may be able to do fighting games with the Super Gameboy multiplayer though. Super Gameboy fighting games were programmed for two SNES controllers.

  • @DaveGX

    I think the BoosterBoy might be the 1 I always wanted, making it look like a mini arcade cabinet, or slightly possibly HyperBoy, except I don’t recall seeing that look all that much. I had a Handy Pack for OG GameBoy, but the buttons were unusable, uncomfortable buttons and tight analog just doesn’t move smoothly everywhere. Unfortunately, my GameBoy no longer works. Would love to seek a new 1 someday or Pocket for that matter, screen died on that 1, which a friend said he got working with a pin because somehow he broke the power switch.

    -GB mobile adapter: used to connect GB to a cell phone. Mostly used with Pokémon Crystal. Even in Japan not many kids had cell phones so it failed
    -PediaSedate: Distract kids with a Game Boy while they’re being given nitrous oxide before dental procedures

    Sound was crisp, the magnifier and lights worked well for 9 years old me, I was very happy with it.
    Sadly it doesn't work anymore aside from the buttons and fake joystick - which was my favorite part about it.
