Custom Modded Gameboy Color Kanto Starters Pokemon Console (Gameboy Color)
Custom Orange and Blue Gameboy Color System, Design is based on the Pokémon 3rd Anniversary Edition Gameboy Color which was Exclusive to Japan.
The Game Boy Color referred to as GBC, is a handheld game console manufactured by Nintendo, which was released on October 21, 1998 in Japan, and was released in November of the same year in international markets. It is the successor of the Game Boy.
The Game Boy Color, as suggested by the name, features a color screen, but no backlight. It is slightly thicker and taller than the Game Boy Pocket, which is a redesigned Game Boy released in 1996. As with the original Game Boy, it has a custom 8-bit processor somewhat related to a Zilog Z80 central processing unit (CPU). The original name - with its American English spelling of "color" - remained unchanged even in markets where "colour" was the accepted English spelling.
While mostly retaining the same hardware as the original Game Boy, the Game Boy Color's primary competitors were the much more advanced Neo Geo Pocket by SNK and the WonderSwan by Bandai (released in Japan only), though the Game Boy Color outsold these by a wide margin. The Game Boy and Game Boy Color combined have sold 118.69 million units worldwide.It was discontinued in 2003, shortly after the release of the Game Boy Advance SP.
