I liked them a lot.. I bought 2 at full price. :D

Then later I bought about 10 (or was it 7.. I forget) at $2.00 a pop when the WB-Store was closing out at the local mall. I also picked up the printer for 6 bucks. :D

They're good fun. I like taking pictures of myself in the bathroom (where I usually play the GB anyway) 8-)

j/k!

I actually picked up my first GB camera (which is strangly my first GB cart ;) ) last week.
I think it's a great little novelty but without the printer or knowledge of how to
transfer pics to your computer it's really not that good as a camera.
The games are really suprisingly fun :)

No, they make the cheapest CG enhanced video production studio. He he. My cousin and I have a VHS tape with some of the most bizarre stuff you can imagine. One video I made showed me walking off camera with scissors, and coming back completely bald. That took a little while to get the image editing to look right. And CanX, is that picture from that guy that was taking color photos by using three separate color filters? It's like the modern day Technicolor.

I'll refer you to my member photo.

Yeah, I dig the GB camera. It's kind of like the still cameral equivalent of the Fisher Price PXL 2000 that I never got back in the day (and now are too frigging expensive on the 'bay.)

Since we're on the subject, does anyone know how to get Gameboy Camera images into a Mac? I've got the PC link software, but of course, it's not Mac compatible (even if I use Virtual PC). Sure, I can scan them in but the quality is not the same.

BTW, PXL 2000's are awesome. I've got 3 of them, including one with the AV mod.
