Recently I decided to relive my days of yore by getting an old gameboy original (nice and cheap) and Pokemon Blue. The first unit I received was scratched to [four letter expletive] and had a really odd sound coming out of the speaker; a kind of loud buzzing and a high-pitched squeal combined. I returned it for a new one. To my horror, my new unscratched model makes EXACTLY the same sound. They're totally identical, even the volume of the buzz is the same. I tried changing my batteries and everything, but still the squeal cometh.
So did the gameboy always make such a god-awful sound, or am I just unlucky? I'm assuming the former is correct, but I just want confirmation.
