Boxed Bandai SwanCrystal

The Bandai SwanCrystal was the final and best version of the WonderSwan handheld and sported a truly crisp colour screen. It is also probably the rarest of the series these days too, meaning that retro gamers should be more than happy that this wonderful SwanCrystal just appeared on eBay. It's the complete boxed red version of the console and even comes with an equally boxed version of Final Fantasy II.

Seller ships only within the United States.

Final Fantasy (Wonderswan Color)

If you do actually own one of those Gunpei Yokoi designed handheld beauties, then you really should think about grabbing Final Fantasy for the Wonderswan Color from Play Asia. It's a pretty faithful remake of the NES original and thus one of the best action-RPGs available for the system.

Bandai's fantastic WonderSwan

Bandai WonderSwanDesigned by legendary Game Boy creator Gunpei Yokoi, the WonderSwan from Bandai was a powerful little handheld console released in 1999, that happily went on (in all its various... err... variants) to sell a very respectable 3.5 million consoles worldwide. Apparently got a couple hundred games released for it too, including the brilliant Gunpey and some Gundam offerings. The original version of the machine in particular, the one with the black and white display, usually sells for 30-40$, meaning this very impressive and apparently absolutely new in its box WonderSwan (Skeleton Black model) could go for quite a bit more, though apparently not much. Seller ships worldwide.
