Unrealistic. Gameboys never die.

[–] SternburgExport@feddit.de 13 points 5 months ago

For real tho. Still got my GBC I got 22 years ago. Only problem it had was the little headphone jack contact that got stuck once so no audio was coming from the speaker.

[–] Wilzax@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

Batteries in it die pretty often though, so maybe ghost rules count that?

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 5 points 5 months ago

Exactly, but on the plus side think of how many McDonald's ice cream machines this guy is going to have access to.

The number of batteries in the ghost realm killed by Gameboys must be the ghost version of the great garbage patch

Yeah this should be a Game Gear in the comic.

[–] Mango@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

I used to have a box of nearly dead batteries to say you're wrong.

[–] ours@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

In hot/humid climate their screens sure do die. I'll have a few to share for sure when the time comes.

[–] umbrella@lemmy.ml 24 points 5 months ago (1 children)

gotta have that fresh, constant stream of dying batteries too

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 19 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Are the batteries used in the afterlife the ones being recharged?

Sidenote: The Gameboy in the last panel looks like a mouth with buckteeth. He so happy.

That reminds me I should finally play Donkey Kong on game boy. It is supposedly the best game for the system...

[–] dwemthy@lemdro.id 8 points 5 months ago

It's very good. Wario land is my personal favorite

[–] Yuki@kutsuya.dev 4 points 5 months ago

I enjoy Pokémon way more though

Wouldn’t this be better for c/comics ?

[–] RandomVideos@programming.dev 9 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Thats why, when you are about to die, you should destroy everything you can so you can use them for the rest of eternity

[–] button_masher@lemmy.ml 5 points 5 months ago

Maybe that's why the Egyptian Pharaohs were buried with all their stuff...

[–] Karyoplasma@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 5 months ago

Gameboy did not give up the ghost, it just returned.

[–] umbraroze@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

The ghost of dead Game Boy also came with ghosts of dead batteries. ...So many dead batteries. Many coming from tragic circumstances, such as almost reaching the last level of TMNT 2.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 4 points 5 months ago

So many gems on the gameboy...

[–] mexicancartel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Imagine the gameboy as ghost's mouth. Its screaming bip bop

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

So what if you're playing a game that's supposed to kill enemies?

[–] Landless2029@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

This is me now... I'll finally be able to enjoy gaming again once I die.
