Great thread. I did the CD player in pocket thing

. I remember around 1999/00 everybody had a Gameboy Color and played Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow, I never had one and used to play on my mate's ones. Always wanted to play that.

This was my first games console, I got it about 1997, second hand. It had Castle of Illusion (Mickey Mouse) on it, and a game you didn't need a cartridge to play, called Alex Kidd.
