The dad who played Tetris under the covers on four AA batteries until they died

What it is

Original 8-bit Nintendo Game Boy handheld, cleaned and tested, with a twelve-month warranty. Dot-matrix screen with contrast dial. Original units commonly show slight yellowing. Colour variants are individually priced from $209.99 up to $249.99.

Why we picked it

The original grey brick with the green screen, cleaned, tested and carrying a twelve-month warranty, rather than a modern lookalike running an emulator. Check the colour before you commit: variants run from $209.99 to $249.99 and stock is thin, so the price depends on which one is still there.
