All the buttons can be pressed, the power slider clicks, it even has the volume and contrast wheels, every thing every god damn thing.

It even comes with a model of Link’s Awakening, which no joke, was my favourite game growing up 🧚 🗡️

The cartridge has a mock battery inside, which I’m guessing refers to the fact that Zelda has a battery powered save file. Mario Land, the other cart in the set doesn’t have it!

Got the lego gameboy at Legoland, and am kind of blown away by how perfect it is.

Fun fact: It comes with 421 bricks, a reference to the release date, April 21 1989. The serial number on the back refers to it as well.

I’ve always known this date by heart, because that is exact day I too was born!

Gorgeous poetry.
