Is there any reason why I should believe this Gameboy has really been through the Gulf war bombing, besides the label.?
I can just imagine someone going all crazy on it with a flame thrower in the bathroom. :P

that is crazy how is that a game boy that got bombed still working?

you'd think it would have done something to the screen.

the screen would have melted.
im not usually one to go crying fake... but cmon now. plastic is plastic.

Maybe it was face down or had a square rock covering the top :S

This does not bode well for all those Gameboys in landfills already. By the looks of it, archaeologists will be able to pick them up and continue our saved games of Tetris.

i don't believe that gameboy got melted its just crazy. and how is somebody playing tetris on that thing when it is in showcase?

pokey and MllrRat have a point, plus they're not pushing the buttons so its not really "fully-functional"

theres only one explanation for the miracle screen; its alive and it really didn't want to die...so it didn't. its either that or they gave it to a kid with matches and he missed the screen.

i thought the original screens were glass. just to add the seed of doubt. also, ballistics can be a funny science, and just by looking at the damage to the thing, i'd say the blast was coming from teh bottom right an working up to the top left, check out the clean areas under the buttons on teh left side. and who doesnt carry they're gameboy face down in their back pocket on their right hip? sheesh. naysaying bastards.
