Nintendo has unveiled another limited edition Pokemon 3DS XL. First up, we had the Pikachu 3DS XL, then we had the Charizard 3DS XL and now we have the Eevee 3DS XL. These consoles are sure to be collectors items for Pokemon fans across the world. Yet these is just the latest in a long line of limited edition Pokemon consoles.
Our favourite cute little monsters have adorned consoles from Game Boy Color to Game Boy Advance and DSi. There's even a limited edition Pikachu N64. Join us as we look as some of the rarest Pokemon consoles. You won't find all of these in your local games shop, that's for sure.
The Pokemon Game Boy Color was released as part of a Pokemon Yellow bundle which was released in 1999 in the US and followed a year later in Europe. The game built on the popularity of Pikachu - the electric Pokemon was the only Starter Pokemon and he'd follow you around from the start. Indeed, you couldn't escape the little yellow fellow as his cheeky face was staring at you on this Game Boy Color as you played.
I have the Pikachu N64. It's in the attic now though XD.
Got the Pikachu Game Boy Colour and the Black DSi.
Celebi GBA <3
I have the Dialga and Palkia DSLite, imported from America for more money than I should realy be spend ing on a console I'm never going to switch on, but y'know...
The games shop in my town have the Pikachu N64 and the pikachu GameBoy Colour, (as well as a regular GameBoy Light which I want too) but I'm saving up for the stellar Ł75 Game&Watch's they have.
Yeah I got Game Boy Color Pokemon Edition and a first Pokemon N64 a Groudon GBA SP and if anyone wants Nintendo Europe AU and USA to bring out the Pokemon 3DS XL thhen join this www.facebook.com/OperationPika @OperationPika
Aah I have the Pikachu GBC! I collect rare consoles but it's such a pricey hobby. These are all on my wants list, and trying to get my hands on one of those new 3DS LLs is going to kill me (I fly to Japan a month later AGRH)
I bet Marti Bennett has most of these
24 pages? That's just embarassing, ONM.
The Pokemon Stadium N64 is the only one I own but seriously tempted to import the Pikachu XL it's awesome XD
Jesus, never realised there were so many of these things. I don't actually own any, usually because I already owned the system and didn't see the point in getting another or swapping, but I recall some of these being awfully tempting along the years. Especially the Black DSi. So very pretty.
I don't own any of these. In fact, I didn't know half of these existed. But now I want them all and I'm very jealous towards anyone who has one.
ive got the pikachu N64
a friend of mine had that pikachu N64
good times
I have a pokemon mini and a pikacu tamagotchi. I also have pokemon cards that work on my ereader.
I have the Kyogre GBA SP and am still using it to play emerald!! oh, the irony.
A friend of mine owns the red Groudon GBA SP, and i've seen the Pikachu N64 many times at stuff like markets and car boot sales, but I personally don't own any of these Poké-systems, which is a shame
I have the Pikachu N64, it's cheeks light up when the power is on
I just want that Gale of Darkness Gamecube, even though it looks the least interesting. Although, I'd just settle for any Gamecube system where I could have that plate installed. It would look so much better if they had done a Shadow Aura one instead of silver.
The others though, are just amazing.
I have the Groudon GBA SP :3
I only own the Gameboy Colour one. Also... I want to get a Sharpie and draw a bra over Pikachu's nipple-like cameras...
I have the pikachu gameboy advance
but im not sure if my brother sold it or not
The xl's design isn't really that stylish in comparison to the other consoles
I have four of these.
Pikachu/Pichu yellow GBU
Pikachu N64
Pokémon Crystal GBA
Pokémon DSi
oh and a purple Pokémon mini if that counts
Anyone know how mny of these were released in the UK (I know some were, not sure how many though)? Also I don't have any of them, personally I really don't see the point in them.
I've got the Palkia and Dialga DS lite. But it's really not that special other than the things it came with: Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Time, that game's DVD episode 1, a soft case with the same picture on it as the DS that could hold up to 3 games, and a price tag of $200+.
Sigh... I have none of them. The only limited edition console I have is a red Mario GBA That came bundled with the original Mario vs. Donkey Kong.
these are epic
I own the pikachu game boy colour and Pokemon yellow I would like to get the black DSi but eBay prices are high!
I have the Pokemon N64, I still have it out and it has resumed limited gameplaying service until I've found the memory/rumble paks
It's not rare though - there were *thousands* of them unsold, picked up by the likes of Gamestation and eventually flogged for a tenner each. I had two at one point!
EDIT: In fact, most of the people in this thread have one too, it seems!
I've got the pokemon game boy colour
The Groudon GBA SP was the first Nintendo console I ever owned and I still use it to play my GBA games, i'm doing a run of Saphire right now.
I have one of the old gameboy colours with Pikachu on it (i don’t think its a very rare one however) and also have both Groudon and Kyoger GBA SP (with there cases) looked great going to the old Pokemon Expos.
Also have 2 Dialga and Palkia DS lites and a black Zekrom and Reshiram Dsi
Also, is there anyone elce out there who thinks there designs should be printed the other way around? You only want to show these things off when your at a event or something, so why have the design up side down when playing it?
I got these too. the old black and white Tama and the colour one that linked with Gold/Silver.
The pokemon mini was great too. i have the purple (Smoochum) colour!
The E-reader is fab, great with both Pokemon and Animal Crossing shame it never got a UK release.
24 pages is milking it a small bit, guys. It's like Forbes or something.
Anyway, Celebi GBA and Pikachu GBC are the pick of the bunch for me. A friend has the Pikachu N64.
Anyone else think the Lati@s GBA is hideous?
I own the Pika N64 and bought the Pikachu GBC (the yellow/blue) for my brother. The N64 was actually cheaper to buy from Gamestation when I bought it than the standard grey/black N64 was
I think I have two. The Pikachu/Pichu GBC and the Pikachu N64, which I'm sure isn't very rare, but meh!
I have a Pokémon Mini but unsure what the colour is. I think it might have been purple, since it was my sister's and she loves purple. And I'm sure it had a game that's rare. Will have to check on that.
I had a Pocket Pikachu (Pikachu Tamagotchi) as well. I think it might have been the second version one where it was in colour.
I also have a Lugia GBC Case and a Ho-oh GBC cover. I'm not sure if the cover actually had Ho-oh on it, or if it was just Gold, but it was sold with it. By cover I mean you fix it on to the front face of the console. Not sure if I have anything else. Might do, but can't remember. XD
jee my collections tiny ive only got the n64 dsi and gameboy color ones
Uh..I never said or implied that it was rare though. I just didn't use it anymore so I was made to put it in the attic so it wouldn't take up space.
I know you didn't - ONM did though!
I have none of these, but I like all of 'em!
Maybe you should start collecting them? Gotta catch 'em all!
*glasses* YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I know people who have had the yellow Pikachu GB Color, the Pokémon N64 and the Zekrom DSi. Haven't owned one myself though, mainly due to buying my consoles at or soon after launch.
Japan usually gets all the cool stuff...
Pikachu GBA SP -
Funny bit is the pic of the box says Toys R Us =P
Unfortunately not, but I think my friend has that black and silver Palkia and Dialga DS lite. I tried to do a trade with him once.
A good article missing an important entry - the Pokemon Mini, of course! It can't have shifted many units. I remember considering buying one as a kid, but my brother talked me down by saying it'd be gone in months. He was right.
I have the Pikachu N64 and Game Boy Colour.
I really want the Latias and Latios GBA though.
I have none of these maybe i should collect these.
I nearly had a Pikachu GBC for Christmas when I was young. They had them in toys r us and were cheap, so when we went to get one they had sold out. I was devastated
All I have is the GameBoy Color...
Looking at all these awesome consoles, I now feel so worthless!
Charizard 3DS XL is the best.
I have the Pikachu N64. It's set up in my 5 year old son's bedroom. Pickachu's cheeks light up when it's switched on.
dont you mean all pokemon related consoled? LOL
Got three of the consoles now. Got the Pikachu and pichu gameboy colour with crystal as a christmas present, the pikachu N64 as another christmas present and just upgraded me 3DS to the Pikachu 3DS XL. The old consoles have been with my family for years.
I have the Game Boy Color and N64. I didn't really know they were classed as being 'rare'.
