You're cleaning out your closet one day when you find an old dusty wrapped birthday present with your name on it, from your dad.

You open the present and find an unopened Gameboy Advance that your dad got for you over 20 years ago but then forgot to give it to you.

How do you react?
What do you do?
Would you be bitter about your missed childhood gaming oppotunities?

Considering it was my grandmother who got me a GBA for Christmas, and it still works and has the backlit screen mod, it's like "whatever," you know?

I wouldn't be that worried about it. Handheld gaming wasn't really that big for me as a kid. I didn't really play anything handheld except Pokmon blue and silver back then.

The true GBA experience is taking it apart and putting in a Afterburner kit.

You aren't even really reading my posts; you're just staring at your e-mail client and fondly reminiscing about that hobo you stabbed to death. :P

I'd rather have a twenty-year-old bottle of whiskey than a GBA, honestly.
I already have three GBAs. Three bottles of whiskey would do vastly more for me this weekend.

I actually did have a gba when I was little, think my brother had one too. We only got two boring-ass games for it, a half pipe skateboarding game and a Power Rangers beat-em-up game. Instead of getting us actual good games he just sold it. Still mildly bitter about that.

My dad bought me a GBA within a few weeks of its release. He knew nothing about video games so he bought it for me in person with my help.

So I guess Id be wondering why he bought me a second one separately and forgot about it, and how he knew to buy a GBA. Mans was in his his late 70s when the GBA first dropped.

If unopened definitely selling. I have my OG gba from when I was a kid and I would prefer to have a modded gba then a unopened one.

I'd be confused because my parents got me a Gameboy advance when I was a kid qnd they had just came out. I still have it, too.

I guess I'd probably be happy too because my dad died a couple years ago and I don't have we a ton of stuff like this to hold onto or sell

I'd probably keep it until it would sell for a lot of money, then consider selling it.

I would contemplate keeping it in the box for all eternity or sell it.

First of all: have it modded with an upgraded screen and then order the Everdrive X5 from Krikzz.

Youre welcome.

That's it? Keep it for another 20 years and watch it sell for $40,000

Oddly enough I have that exact one still, only got a few games for it though. I know for sure I have Metroid and Tetris. I think I got a sonic game for it too but not so sure anymore.

I'd probably just sell it tbh.

At first, I would wonder why my dad got me another GBA when I already had one. After the initial confusion...
