I think its missing in the Rarity Guide. Its official from Nintendo for Promotion from the old GameBoy.

Today my GameBoy + TV-Adapter arrived finally.
Game Boy + TV Adapter von Nintendo (http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=104752893307&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT&rd=1)

Someone ever see this one before?
I remeber, that I saw it at the beginning from the first GameBoy in one Store here in Germany, not the Device itself, only the GameBoy and the TV. There was the GameBoy and a normal TV which show the same game.
You must play on the GameBoy, but you can watch the TV screen, which show the game in a good quality. You can't change the contrast on the TV screen, but this one is much better then the old GameBoy contrast. It looks more like the GameBoy Pocket on the TV screen.
You can change the volume on the GameBoy and the volume from the TV will change with it too.

At the back from the GameBoy came out a cable, which you must connect with the Device at the front.
At the back from the Device you have a Video, an Audio output and the power plugin.
You need no power for the GameBoy itself, this will send from the Device to the GameBoy.

I think its a great Collector item. Maybe a bit like the M82.
Someone else own this one or ever see it?

Wow..never seen or heard of one of these. I knew of the Demoboy, which was a big clunky metal box..I've got one of those. Which I had the GB that went with it though...or at least the pinout.

That unit is a lot more compact than the DemoBoy, though.

There was one other unit, I believe, that did GB-TV conversion. And I'm not talking about the Wideboy adapters. Can't remember it right now.
