Happy 25th Birthday to the Nintendo Game Boy

by Crazy, filed in Games on Apr.21, 2014

April 21, 1989 saw the release of the Nintendo Game Boy in Japan. Bundled with Tetris in the North American market, the system would go on to dominate the mobile gaming market and give Nintendo a lead that they have not lost since.

I still have my original Game Boy and many of it’s games. Share your memories of the system and your favorite games in the comments!

Strangely, I remember being quite fond of the Tiny Toons game.

Also Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins and TMNT 2 Back from the Sewers.

What’s so amazing about Game Boy’s success is that so many other handhelds came out that were supposed to be more powerful, yet Game Boy outlasted them all. When I got my gameboy back in 1991, it came with tetris and Mario land. Next year for Christmas, I got Final Fantasy Legend 2 and Kid Icarus.
