Would You Buy It?

[pussy galore]

Hi,
I just encountered a 2,5 yr old nl unit at an auction site.
The seller says it is overclockable, but not to 166mhz.
The Description says the screen looks used, but the glass should be replaceble.
I read it costs about 7€.
Do you think the Buttons are still ok if it is that old?
I guess the ending price is about 90€.


please reply fast, because the auction will be over soon!

Give me the url and I'll give you my expert opinion on it

Buttons should be ok but who knows, can be replaced easily along with the screen though.

Just paid 150€ for a BLU 160 MHZ with a 128MB SMC so might be worth waiting around for something better for not that much more €€€

BUY IT!!! . Thats about half the price of a BLU+, but with the screen replacement. and...no backlight. Hmmm, depends on how much $ u have, and if u already have a GP32. Its always good to have a backup.

Thanks for the reply, but the auction is over.
It was at 65€, and I set my Autobet Agent at 70€.
I would have bought that thing for 66€+7€ shipping BUT the f***ing Program failed.
Never use Software from Metaspinner.de

Crap!
Now i'm really pissed... :angry:
I'll never use that kind of software anymore.

still here is the Link:

I would not suggest you to get a nonlit unit, I have one, and I don`t like non lit screens

Save some more money, and go buying a BLU or FLU later on.

If it had a backlight I would say go for it. Playing a GP32 with out a back light or front light totally sux. When I turn on the light for by FLU there is no comparison it makes all the difference. I don't care how fast you can it can over clock, if you can't see the screen then there is no point. it's like playing a GameBoy Color with out any back or front light. Look a bit harder or wait and you will be bale to get a FLU or BLU or eBay, or look at the marketplace forums here.

it does not totally suck, i've had my NLU for almost 2 years and the only reason why i bought a flu is so i can play games in bed. The NLU have a great screen that reflect light very well so even in crappy lighting you can still see the screen. Yes your probably better with a BLU, but if you want a GP32 and you can only afford a NLU, then don't hesitate to buy one, you won't be disappointed.

hmm i want to sell my gp32 too,,
nlu unit.. but i would sell it for 60€ + 64MB SMC
problem.. battery cover is broken :-/
so i someone needs another gp32 for testing or something
i would go down with the prize (then without the smc)
PS: its overclockable to 150 (not that stable, depends on program) and 145/140 stable

You do realise that the Gameboy Color never had any back or front light.
Neither did the first model of GBA.

Anyone selling a NLU in the states for cheap?

I have 2 non-lit GP32s. If the price was right, I might consider selling one of them. Though, I'm not sure that qualifies as "cheap."

I also have the following items that I'd sell:
2 wireless link cables (Like These)
2 Chatboards
1 Homemade GP32 Worm Light
2 128M SmartMedia cards

If you like any of that stuff, make an offer.
