I wanna buy one because they look cool and they've got some good games.

Because I'm not allowed to shop online I was wondering where I could get one from. I was thinking that GameStation might but I don't think GAME would because they don't really sell stuff like that, it's Modern Stuff they sell most of the time.

Your best bet would be online unfortunately, it's also where you would get the best price for it. I'm sure if you ask around your school, some people would have them lying around at home. I have two of them in great condition that i never use at home with loads of games for them. I'd probably be just as happy to give them away if a friend asked me.

I remember the good old days of the gameboy colour though, many a good time spent playing pokemon with friends using the old link cable. :)

Aha, my Dad used to make gameboy games, i must have around 5 gameboys of all types laying about, along with as many duplicates of games. Try amazon on used, it's normally cheap :)

I have a feeling you can buy games for under a pound.... Awh, i miss the days when they were all cool :D

I'm not allowed to shop online which I think is stupid because my mum lets me buy things off iTunes using her card but not Amazon or eBay! :( Would Gamestation sell GAMEBOY games?

I used to have a green gameboy colour with this huge light addon and huge vibrate pack. I was so proud.

Unlikely, since they are out of production your best bet is second hand sales shops, friends or online

Gamestation won't sell them anymore, since they got bought over by GAME all of the retro stuff just faded away. When I was a temp over christmas, someone traded in a SEGA Mega Drive with loads of games and got £11. They then just get sent to head office afaik.

I would think you would maybe have some luck in places like Cash Generator or something like that, but I know that the only "retro" stuff Gamestation seems to sell now is original xbox games and PS2 games.

i doubt gamestation or any game shop would sell them anymore because they have came out with the nintendo ds and comming out with the nintendo 3ds and the only way is most likey to shop online which you cant :S

I sold my Game Boy Colour like 10 years ago for £5. I really want it back. :(

You can still get them for fairly cheap off ebay. I think i saw one there last week for 8 euros with a few games.

I don't know this for certain but you can try CEX it's a second hand shop and I think some have a relatively small section fro Gamecube, so they probally will sell a few Gamecube's.

I think maybe I would be able to shop online.

Do you think it would be cheaper to buy the console with or without games?
