The older Paul brother is facing severe backlash on Twitter after \u201cruining\u201d 15 Game Boys. Logan Paul and Nintendo fans haven\u2019t always seen eye to eye, and it\u2019s mainly due to his extravagant purchases of vintage collector\u2019s items. More specifically, Logan has received negative attention from Pokemon card collectors. Earlier this year, the Pokemon trading card community slammed Paul for wearing an incredibly rare card as a necklace to his fight against Mayweather. The trading card community also blames Paul for impacting sale prices on vintage cards. Even when he chooses to spend $3.5 million on cards, the internet has a negative response. Now, Logan Paul has chosen to upset another community of vintage collectors by ruining 15 Game Boy Colors. Retro gaming enthusiasts have taken to Twitter to express their disappointment in Paul\u2019s latest art project. Logan Paul ruins 15 Game Boys with resin Today the world lost 15 beautiful Game Boy Colors \ud83d\ude14 https:\/\/t.co\/1yPJcqdH0b \u2014 Bob Wulff (@BobWulff) December 26, 2021 Logan Paul recently posted a TikTok where he soaks several Game Boy Colors in resin and then turns them into a tabletop. Many people were impressed by Paul\u2019s ability to create this piece, but there are also plenty of people who aren\u2019t as impressed. Bob Wulff, a notable retro gamer and YouTuber, was among many to criticize Logan Paul\u2019s DIY project. Many stated that Paul had ruined pieces of history and pointed out that a few of the Game Boys were limited\/special editions. Game Boys tend to sell for around $70 USD on Ebay and Amazon. Yet, they can sell for hundreds of dollars depending on their condition and rarity. But to someone like Logan, who is willing to spend millions of dollars on Pokemon cards, a few thousand dollars for 15 Game Boys might not seem like much. Regardless, retro collectors on Twitter aren\u2019t upset with Paul buying the Game Boy Colors. Instead, they are upset with how he chose to ruin the Game Boys instead of preserving them. Everyone here who says \u201cthey probably didn\u2019t work\u201d obviously has never owned a gameboy or gameboy color since you can fucking play basketball with that thing and it\u2019ll still be fine. Do y\u2019all really NOT see these are all like pristine and don\u2019t even have discoloration? \u2014 \ud83d\udd1e\ud83c\udf38Eva\/GeekyFoxy\ud83c\udf3a\ud83d\udd1e (@PuppyHanaa) December 27, 2021 For reference, done properly: pic.twitter.com\/tFH0L93Qwz \u2014 Chad Dressander (@chaddressander) December 26, 2021 What the fuck, there\u2019s even limited editions in there. \u2014 Axel Evarix (@MisterSheeple) December 27, 2021 Nah.. this ain\u2019t it for me. Ruining classic gameboys. For a table? Nah. This was a dumb idea. \u2014 Neil Tortonesi (@Neil_Tort) December 26, 2021 There are correct ways to display and preserve Game Boy Colors. As shown above, some users even provided Logan Paul with these ideas, albeit a little too late.
