Yeah. I still have mine, but the battery door has been lost.
Damn fine console.

 

[Temp_User]

My little old self would say . . . . perpol!

 

[MicH]

I had this one.

Hey, me too!

But Atomic Purple is definitely what I think of when I think of the GBC.

 

[psyfi]

Also well done OP, Game Boy is always two words. So many people write it incorrectly as one word for some reason.

I'm usually careful to write product names correctly (especially when I actually like the product), but somehow I always write Game Boy as one word. Maybe now I'll finally remember haha

Atomic Purple

That colour doesn't look quite right

 

[ffvorax]

Definetly PURPLE!
(also Yellow, but purple is the one!)

 

[Graphics Horse]

:O

Maybe I forgot about these, there's a clear black one in Japan too.

 

[Macka]

It's definitely Atomic Purple, but I gotta say a LOT of people seemed to have the Gold/Silver one at my school, myself included.

 

[Hippopuncher12]

If you don’t say Atomic Purple you are wrong.

 

[boiled goose]

Lime green

 

[GasProblem]

I loved my yellow GBC 😊

 

[Forkball]

Lime green

It was kiwi green you fool.

 

[425kid]

Lime green because that’s the one I have. Seriously when I think of the Gameboy Color, my mental image is the transparent purple one.

Glad to know I had the right one

 

[Bucket Mouse]

Surprised at all the Atomic Purple mentions. I thought solid purple was the "official" GBC used in all the promotional materials.

 

[Intel_89]

I had a turquoise one but atomic purple is the staple GBC colour as far as I'm concerned. It's not even my favourite colour from the many that the system had but it's the one that immediately comes to mind.

 

[Bishop89]

Atomic purple.


Maybe the Special Pikachu Edition.

I had both of these.
So I'm going with that answer

Winner winner chicken dinner.

 

[Grizzo]

The solid purple one for me.

I wish I could get a frontlit screen GBC (I think backlit doesn't exist on this system?) so I could just play it anywhere. I have a backlit original GBA which I love but there's something about the GBC shape that I also find convenient.

According to Nintendo:

Unless that says in Japanese "This is the definitive color of the console" , there are official Nintendo pics of literally every possible color

 

[Lucumo]

The "red" one.

 

[Markitron]

I remember clear purple essentially being the default one.

 

[Shadow Broker]

This is the one I had and seen many others with.

 

[Spukc]

[Red UFO]

It's that or this one:

That's the shit right there son

 

[Journey]

Atomic Purple

That's the one I got

 

[Plasma]

The yellow one because that's the one I had.

 

[Young Tick]

Special Pikachu Edition. Yellow isn't my color but fitted perfectly for the GBC.

Salute.

 

[Aiustis]

Half of everyone I knew had the purple one.
