Nintendo even applied a special protective film on the GB speaker that gave the unit a fair bit of water resistance. You could drop the thing in the toilet, and so long as you let it dry completely, and didn't power it on wet, it would most likely survive un-damaged.

Most common failure point on a "beige-brick" GB is the D-pad. The silicone pads were much thinner than the A/B buttons for some reason.
