I've got a friend that just bought me one in trade for some web dev work, and he's supposed to drop it off tomorrow or the next day. Box, manuals, VHS tape and everything! Here's hoping I can figure out how to use it. I'm planning on using it to embroider a slipcover for my NES Pi project.

Picked up mine from my friend today. It's even got the original batteries that came with the Game Boy, and they still work! I don't think I could have found a better example.


PS: I hear there's an award for this! I didn't see it in the game series awards thread. Should I post there anyways?

my grandmother just passed away, and i was given her singer izek, only the gameboy color and the cartridge was not with everything. 
i really want to purchase your extra gameboy color and cartridge OR just the cartridge whichever. i really need those to finish a quilt that was started by her. 
i don't know if i am allowed to put my email address on here, but it is my username at yahoo.

Hey! I unfortunately sold the extra cartridge to another member about a week after I made this thread and didn't see that you had posted here because you didn't "quote" me which would have notified me that you posted. Sorry for the bad news and for your loss. I hope you can find another copy of the cartridge. I'm always looking out for weird accessories like these so if I find another I will most likely put it up for sale. So stay active in searching for it on ebay and on these forums!

Very nice! Definitely more complete than mine!

Thanks! Yeah, the box is a bit worn, but it's not like these pop up for under $200 CIB every day. I have no way to play the VHS tape, though. Does anyone know of a YouTube video of it or a video download somewhere? If not, I'll probably just buy a VCR from the local thrift and try to copy it.

I remember seeing this at Big Lots and passing on it because it was just too expensive for my minimum-wage job at the time.

I did get a couple Nintendo 3D1 PC joysticks from there (Nintendo-branded, N64-styled, and produced by the Laral Group).

I would love to get a copy of that VHS tape.
Better yet, I would love to make copies to DVDs for all of those collectors that don't have a VHS player hooked up.
I have a VHS to DVD burner if you want to chat

Sorry for bumping such an old thread but I'm trying to figure out if this was ever released in Europe. I see a spanish manual but paired with a 120v power brick makes me think it's for the Americas.
I algo got to know that there were two models in japan. Anything for Europe or even Asia or Australia?

I'd say that most things sold exclusively in the North America have either an English and Spanish manual or two manuals, one in English and another in Spanish, so the Spanish manual doesn't really imply that it was released outside of the USA.   French is also pretty common due to similar versions often being sold in the rest of NA including Canada's French Quebec. Of course, major purchases from International corporations often include documentation in Dutch, German, Sweedish, Spanish, French, English, and more.
