Is there a difference in the gameboy and gamboy colour case?

CodeDrawer

@obsidianspider Again I tried, but I couldn't find anything saying if there was a shape difference like a curved battery cover, stuff that can't be told in the dimensions.

@CodeDrawer get yourself a free cad program such as 123d, google something along the lines of "gameboy cad model" then have a look

@obsidianspider And sometimes just answering the question takes less time than a long winded diatribe that doesn't answer the question.

@spruce_m00se I guess I didn't realize that this forum was just a way to link people to the documentation and google.

@thedeathstar if people would learn to read documentation and look on google well then the forum would be less cluttered.

my last advice was sound, if he follows it he will learn something.

OK sure I messed up. I did some reasearch. I couldn't find anything. Please don't get too mad.

even if you cant measure those models it should give you a visual idea of the differences.

@spruce_m00se One that is exactly what I needed! Two, being Canadian, I hope you didn't make up the name to sound 'Canadian'. Which if you did, you didn't do it well. Thank you very mush!

@CodeDrawer lol, made up my name to sound canadian! as if I care about Canada.

it is actually my gaming name that I have used for the last 20 years or so for online gaming.
It is a play on the spruce goose. and my gaming clan all had names that sounded like spruce goose.

CodeDrawer

@spruce_m00se Haha OK I get it now!

That is surprising. Out of 28 years of material from that show, it's funny which moments end up being the most memorable. When you started posting here, the name definitely got a smile out of me.
