Can someone help me here ? Have you a game boy ? [img]smile.gif[/img]

**Snaps fingers** There's one at my Grandma's house that's in the condition EXACTLY like you mention.

I take it you want it in grams/Kilograms (Even though mass isn't the same as weight >_&gt

YeLL · 11-29-2005, 11:46 AM

Yes, in grams ... sorry for my english

Thank you very much !

GRENTLEMEN · 11-29-2005, 12:51 PM

I haven't a tetris cart, I'm sorry.

YeLL · 11-29-2005, 06:49 PM

Ok, thank you nevertheless. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I'd imagine it'd weight the same with any old cartridge.

When do you require the answer by?

YeLL · 11-30-2005, 07:07 AM

Before this day, at 11:59 PM (in France)

At this message, it's 12:08 here ...

YeLL · 11-30-2005, 12:35 PM

6 hours remaining

Nobody else has a Game Boy ?

Thank you [img]smile.gif[/img]

***Ace Mercury*** · 11-30-2005, 01:46 PM

Don't have one on me right now, but this site lists the with-battery weight as 394 g. So, if you can find the weight of a cartridge and four AA batteries, you can do some math and figure it out.

YeLL · 11-30-2005, 04:12 PM

Already tried ... but many sites gives many different results ... It's a multi-choice question, but the 3 results are similar ...

228 grams
236 grams
245 grams

That's played with a margin of 8 or 10 grams.

Thanks nevertheless.

YeLL · 11-30-2005, 05:56 PM

1 hour remaining ... I'll say 245g but I'm not sure at all

YeLL · 11-30-2005, 06:44 PM

10 minutes remaining ... Is there a heroe of the last chance ?

YeLL · 11-30-2005, 07:06 PM

Finished ! I'll say you if it was the right answer !

Thank you all [img]smile.gif[/img]

Chunky Kong12345 · 11-30-2005, 09:02 PM

You never answered my sort-of-question.

YeLL · 12-01-2005, 09:56 AM

I believed that this sentence was intended for "WHAT YOU LIKE IS IN THE LIMO" ... I did not know that it was the question which was sent to me. Sorry.

GRENTLEMEN · 12-01-2005, 01:20 PM

Naw, I never got a message from anyone.

YeLL · 12-02-2005, 02:45 AM

The answer was : 236g
