Nintendo Game Boy micro Purple Handheld System With Charger

About this deal

The Game Boy Micro is a 32-bit handheld console from Nintendo and the last in the Game Boy line, built as a miniaturised version of the Game Boy Advance. Purple was one of four colours in which the Micro launched in Japan , making this a relatively uncommon colour variant. Unlike its predecessors, the Micro ditched plastic in favour of a metal casing , giving it a noticeably premium, sturdy feel. The 2-inch screen features a backlight with adjustable brightness , and the console also includes a 3.5mm headphone jack. The Micro is capable of playing all Game Boy Advance games , giving access to a huge software library, though it lacks backward compatibility for original Game Boy and Game Boy Color games. The built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery offers up to 5 hours of play at top brightness and volume, or around 8 hours at default settings. The console features a removable, decorative faceplate for personalisation. This used example comes in purple with a charger included, making it a neat, self-contained package for fans and collectors.
