I'm interested, but sold. If it's backwards compatible with the switch then I'll be. Depending on price.

Everyone wanting to buy a Nintendo Switch 2, meanwhile I'm trying to sell stuff on a flea market so I can buy myself a custom backlit Nintendo Gameboy Color. I just have zero interest in the newer consoles beyond PS3.

I'm on the same boat. Perfectly content with my PS4 and gaming laptop. Buying a new console just doesn't make sense to me anymore. Instead of buying, lets say a PS5 and $80 dollar game for it, I could buy like 15 or 20 games on my PS4 or steam instead.

This is the console I am saving up for: ![](https://i.etsystatic.com/34324192/r/il/9d50cf/4897659934/il_fullxfull.4897659934_ipru.jpg) Gameboy Color, with upgraded larger IPS Screen, Backlit, and the shell, buttons and screen border colors of the original 1989 Gameboy. Once I have that I won't need any other Gameboy, since I never really cared for Gameboy Advance (aside from maybe the Sonic Advance games which I did play in the past). Blows the Switch 2 out of the water already for me.

So this coming Sunday I will be running a flea market stall. I need to make back Β£10 for the stall charge, then I need to make Β£160. So if I make Β£170 on Sunday, I will be placing my order on that backlit Gameboy and should have it next week. If I only make Β£140 or Β£150 I'll still probably order it. The console itself will cost me Β£160 so if the profits from the stall make it so I only have to pay Β£20-Β£30 extra then That'll be just fine. Either way, Sunday will be the deciding day for that purchase.

Well, turns out there might be thunderstorms so it'll be postponed for a week. ![](https://media.tenor.com/CIfteVbUwgcAAAAC/mike-myers-wayne-campbell.gif)

So the rain never appeared, as such I was able to set up my stall. I managed to make back the stall fee and wound up only Β£17 shy of the Β£160 I need for my new Gameboy. So I will just put the rest to it. Will have to go to the bank to deposit the cash before I buy one, maybe sometime during the next week. Once I order it I'll post it in the latest purchases thread anyway.

Ok, any idea when? I thinking around the time when E3 would have taken place.

I don't know. Ever since E3 is no longer around it because a bit more difficult following gaming news. IGN hasn't been all that active with gamings news either.

IGN hasn't been bothered about games in a very long time. I've haven't been following game news for a just as long, but I do keep my eye on some YouTube channels that cover it.

Yeah I still follow the gaming community, even though that is not all that active either like it use to be, but me personally I game casually now (casually compare to my old high school self anyway). So I just rely on word of mouth instead of news.

First of all, there are not enough hours during the day and perfectly content with playing older or smaller games for somewhere around $10-$20. I can get more games that way anyway and still have money saved. Not to mention the fact that I already have a PS4 and gaming laptop. That's good enough for me.

True, 20-30 quid is what I'm willing spend on a game. Not, 60-70. That's way too much for something that in all likelyhood is going to be a broken mess filled to the brim with micro transactions. Most games, I play now, I get on sale.
