I've still got my original grey brick. It's one of the few consoles I had that I never sold on when I upgraded. 
No boxes though.
Link's Awakening is one of my all time favourite games.

I've been meaning to mod my GBC with the front light from a GBA:SP so I can replay some old GBC games, I loved Zelda Links Awakening DX, and Survival Kids (Stranded Kids over here).

Same here
Especially after seeing the DC collection for the Xbox 360 last night!This thread has also given me a craving for another N64 as I want to play Mario64 again. Plus I've always wanted a SNES as it's one of the few consoles I never had.

You know what you need to do
All 3 can be had for very good deals on a certain auction site

Resistance is futile... My next purchase that arrived yesterday (and yes that is another copy of SMB3):

VERY NICE.
May I ask how much you got that lot for and from where?
Interested in selling me one of the SMB3s?
The original (and best) Gameboy. That looks to be in great condition mate. Well done, a good buy! I remember Chirtsmas 91" was a great year for me with that original Gameboy (and box), Tetris, Quix and Double Dragon as my starter games!Further adding to my retro collection I have just bought this!
Cannot beat Tetris on the original GB
My Castle Of Illusion and World Of Illusion games arrived yesterday. Once Quackshot is here I will post a pic of all three.

I picked that lot up from eBay again... Cost me £40 inc. shipping, but the console does need it's 72pin connector replacing (which I'll be doing this weekend).
This copy of SMB3 isn't in the same condition as my last copy, but works and includes everything in the box (box does have some wear). I'm always happy to sell spares

It's no use resisting, it won't work
You'll be browsing and the next thing you know, you'll have hit that buy button and you'll be the proud owner of a nice retro console

) ? (Email in trust)
