On my first GameBoy, there's a vertical line of pixels that 's dead....but it's near the side, so it's not too bad.

That happened on my SP. The whole thing died eventually.

Man, I went through a ton of those. My platinum-onyx color one got water damaged (when it was in a backpack) on a log ride, and the other one I dropped. It's weird though, because my GBC is still going strong. The speaker is weak, but that's what headphone ports are for.

My DS lasted a long time, though.
