Description
Yes, believe it or not, this WAS introduced in the '80s - 1989, to be exact. The Gameboy was introduced as a portable version of Nintendo's 8-bit NES. Four models later [The Super Gameboy, for playing Gameboy games through your Super Nintendo; the Gameboy Pocket, a 'slimmer' version of the old Gameboy; Gameboy Color,and Gameboy Advanced, the current model], it's still in production. Also introduced was the first game, Tetris.

Loved this for only one reason- TETRIS.. This was my younger brothers game boy- that was the only game I could handle with out wanting to throw the thing and bust it..
Loved it because I was addicted!
Tetris was awsome, I also loved the Final Fantasy games. This made long road trips bearable when I was a kid.
am i still sad to admit i still own the gameboy and play it occasionally!? Super MArio.. legand!! :) xx
Loved this for Tetris. My sister got one, I didn't, so I stole it all the time and lied as long as I could. Now I have that Tetris music in my head.
I've actually never had a game boy, I remember as a kid the two boys my mom babysat had them and wouldn't let me touch them....and then all of a sudden I lost interest all together..my nephews have newer versions of them
i remember my brother having one of these...he wouldnt let me and my sister touch it at first...but i remember getting ahold of tetris. that game rocked..those skills come inn handy now a days, i can pack things very well
I never had one. One of the children from my church (who's family was wealthy) introduced her Gameboy at a party on the day the Gameboy was first released! We were so amazed by it that we didn't want to leave when the party was over! I played Tetris until my fingers hurt!
Another thing my big sister had that I'd play with when she wasn't around. I think when you grow up with systems like Atari and Nintendo, you love video games for life.
The Super Mario Land Game was my favorite. Tetris was a good game too. My favorite music on Tetris is the music they play for the scoreboard. It sounds so pretty!
o man it was cool haven that but it was only the begging of toys i loved tetris i still do
Older siblings had the original grey one. I had the next generation; same basic shape and size, but the grey part was now available in more colors. Still have it. Mine's green. I also still have the Gameboy Camera.
Game girl anyone? Loved it!
I always wanted one as a kid, but only ever had Nintendo. I think that is why I got a Nintendo DS Lite at the age of 25.
