I'm afraid the days of King's Quest and Liesure Suit Larry are gone forever, or at least anyone that knows about such things are nowhere to be found. I've asked the kids selling Wii, PS2 & 3, etc., and none seemed to understand I wanted puzzle or adventure games - NOT action games requiring manual dexterity, so they didn't know what I should buy. Eventually I figured out what was needed but, again, not what I wanted.
This is a kid's game and nothing I read in advance prepared me for that. NO included games, NO instructions. I wanted a simple 'puzzle' handheld game that didn't involve rapid finger and thumb movement because I'm simply too old for kid's games.
I ordered two games (Tetris, Mario Bros) which also came without instructions. Guess I'll go watch some TV. Apparently all the reviews are written by youngsters who love to wail at the keys before losing to a relentless clock.
The game console (used) arrived in excellent condition but it was just a shell.
Game has been handed down from my 7yr old to my 5yr old and still gets a lot of play.
This seems to hold his interest and is a great way to pass a long car ride. My son got this for xmas this year and he loves it. He wanted a DS but I figured he was a little too young for one of those.
Unlike previous colors/models, these later models have a different backlit system. It was impossible to find a new Game Boy SP, so I had to settle for a used one from Gamestop, I went to many Gamestops to find one that was in the best possible condition without scratches on the clear LCD cover, although many were in good condition but I wanted a GOOD one.
It's portable so you can play at work, beach, book store, on the bed, in the bathroom, or wherever. The AC Adapter charger is upgraded as well, it's significantly smaller than previous version.Overall if you want an awesome video game system or handheld get a Game Boy SP.
Finally I got a Game Boy SP again. I'm very impressed with this new backlit feature, thanks Nintendo.
Make sure you pick the latest color/model plus its battery is fresher too. Previously I had a NES Classic edition but it got jacked by the workers who installed the wood flooring for my home a few years ago.This Pearl Blue color(which I got) along with Pearl Pink and Graphite were the last model Nintendo made in 2006.
You can't turn the backlit off, instead there is a super bright mode in addition to the regular bright mode.
this is my short review i got this item from rkelectronics,and this thing is totally junk.
