My Portable Nintendo Game Consoles

I just wanted to make this post because apparently it's surprising that I still have my old consoles and they still work just fine. I'm not that old, am I? I mean, I like to keep them as like a souvenir of my childhood, in a way. So here they are:

My old gameboy color! My first gameboy. I got it when I was 8 years old so that was a long time ago. It's purple and a little see through. I put a few stickers on it and I'm surprised they actually stayed on. Still works just fine, but changing the battery all the time is so time and money consuming.

I skipped getting a gameboy advance and got a gameboy SP. I loved the color silver then (and I still do). I got this when I was 12 and I thought it was the coolest and sleekest thing ever. I used to pretend that it was a phone because that's kind of what it looked like. I remember I was so amazed that it didn't need batteries and you could actually charge it from the outlet like a cell phone. It was the most high tech thing at the time!

I fell off the whole nintendo thing once I got older just because none of my friends didn't have any of the consoles and my parents wouldn't get me one because the new DS consoles were too expensive for them. I asked for it every year and they kept saying no. Sophomore year in college, decided to just buy it myself when the limited edition of the pokemon black/white DSi consoles came out. Got the white one of course. I loved it to death.

Once I heard that Nintendo was coming out with Pokemon x/y on 3DS, I had to get a 3DS. I didn't just want some boring 3DS though, because it's hard to top my love for my old DSi. Then news came of this release and I just had to get one. They released it March 24 and I was in Target, first thing in the morning, to get myself one. I chose target because they were having a sale on all consoles and the price of this dropped to $159.99 (being previously $199.99). It was such a steal. I couldn't pass it up.
