SP! :) ;) :D ;D

Clamshell opening to protect the screen, small, battery-chargeable, & totally backwards compatible! :o

I like the gameboy color the best. Man back in 1998 the gameboy with color was the shit!

GBC; first GB I got...played it endlessly :)
I like to glitch old VHS tapes and turn them into visuals for live music events. Check out what I'm working on - www.instagram.com/tylerisneat

ah yes so many awesome games for it. I liked it a lot because it somehow reminded me of the NES.

The Game Boy light is the best but since that's not an option I voted original.

GBC? I dont know any good games for it... mario allstars and pokemon gold... more? Gameboy advance is the best for me. I think the SP is ugly

GBA SP, and more specifically
the FAMICOM GBA SP limited edition.
It's just a great little system, though I've
taken to playing GBA games on my NDS Lite.

Gaming peaked in the 8-Bit & 16-Bit eras...
all else is just rehashes and insanity passing
itself off as "gaming."

My vote is for the 2005 Model GBA SP 2.0. The one with the backlit screen and a level of brightness even beyond that.

/\ This would be my vote if that was the case.  I've never played an SP, but one that plays GBA with backwards capability and a lighted screen would be the best (GBA for CV games).  I don't like the DS (though I guess that may not go by the GB moniker).  Though my only fond memories of the gameboy were of the original as a kid--Tetris and Balloon Kid most notably.

GBA SP backlit, no contest. It plays three generations of Gameboy games on a big hand-held screen, what's not to love?

Trium Shockwave

SP, absolutely. Plays all the Game Boy games all the way back to Tetris, and the compact clamshell design, backlight and built in rechargeable battery are huge improvements over previous models.

My favorite edition of the game boy is the GBA SP!!! Specifically the Nes version. 8)
