The Game Boy Light is only slightly bigger than the Game Boy Pocket and features an electroluminescent backlight for low-light conditions. It uses 2 AA batteries, which gave it approximately 20 hours with the light off and 12 with it on. It was available in two standard colors, gold and silver.[32] It also received numerous special editions, including an Astro Boy edition with a clear case and a picture of Astro Boy on it,[33] an Osamu Tezuka World edition with a clear red case and a picture of his characters,[34] and a solid yellow Pokémon Center Tokyo version.
