I decided that I wanted a small handheld that can play Tetris in color. That's all I want the thing to do, be a portable Tetris machine. I have a Gameboy that has Tetris and it is fine, but I gotta admit it is really difficult to see the screen unless the lighting is right. Additionally, Nintendo decided to pretend it had color by putting patterns on the Tetris pieces. Which is fine except they used a "blank" pattern for one, making it slightly difficult to tell, once you get going, if you have a hole or if you had one section of a piece that was blank.
That brings me to the Gameboy Color. Keep in mind that I missed all of this as a teenager or whatever I was when this was all coming out.
This guy on eBay is selling Gameboy Colors with frontlight mods. It's honestly worth $100 to me to solve this Tetris problem, but I am curious if anyone out there has had experiences with Gameboy Colors to where they are like, nah, you don't need it or yes, it's the only way the thing is playable.
(It does surprise me that there are very few videos of people playing Tetris on a real Gameboy Color on Youtube. I am going to make one when I solve this, it's our ticket out of this dump, Caltrops.)
