I myself wanted one of those remote controlled air planes. I thought that's the coolest thing ever. Once I grew up and had the money, I never bought it.

I never got that Gameboy I wanted, but that's OK, I'm made up for it using emulators years later.

i finally got the gameboy and the screen was so dim it was unusable, and the batteries 4x AA lasted maybe an hour.

If you really want to play games on the classic devices, consider checking out IPS screen mods that add a backlight to most models of gameboy. I’ve also seen rechargeable USB-C battery packs mods people install
