I started playing GBC, actually, at around 6 years? Then my GBC got lost I think, so I bought a GBA at around 10, GBA(SP) at 13? I started playing VBA when I was 11, though. Loved ROM-downloading! o.O

Im not sure if gbc's can count but I got my gbc when it first came out when I was 8-9, I had only one game for it to and that was pokemon red, but I didn't even get to on a gba til about 5 years later, and a bout 6 months after that the darn DS came out.

It's still GB material, so I guess it should? o.O I didn't get myself a DS after my GBA(SP), thought it would be a waste of money. My brother got it in the end, so we share it now. :D Although both of us don't use it now. =/

I got my first Gameboy Advance.....geez it's been a couple of years, at least. 0_oI do remember the reason why [and the sole reason why]: Pokemon Ruby :facepalm: I actually saved a good portion of my b-day money just to get that game and the system. And for a while, the GBA came out with some of my favorite games such as Kingdom Hearts: CoM, Fire Emblem, and Super Mario RPG :facepalm:I actually broke my first one, though I can't remember how. >.> Then I bought another one at a pawn shop....which had ridiculous prices for a used GBA [It was $20 cheaper, but at the time, it was still expensive]

Haha! I bought my GBA[SP]Light when I was 12, after my PSLE...I just had some saved cash, and I felt like doing it. But, I did get a GBC when I was 7 though--wonder if that counts? :(

I got my first gameboy for my birthday when i was about 5 after begging my parents for one. It didnt last for long though. If i remember right it fell about 2 stories when I was playing by the window.
