The Game Boy platform (which includes the original unit, the Game Boy Pocket, and the Game Boy Color) came to market when most video game consoles had a life expectancy of just a few years. More than a decade later, the system is still going strong. How did the Game Boy successfully compete--and in some cases bury--an onslaught of faster, more powerful handheld and home console systems? Let us count the ways: affordability, a huge library of games that consistently made the most of the hardware's limitations, smart power management that extended battery life, and uncluttered controls. But perhaps it was the system's ultraportable design that allowed devotees to play video games around their schedule, making it the must-have system for kids and adults alike. Less

A 100% REAL, AUTHENTIC REVIEW BY A GAME BOY ADVANCE OWNER!

Pros Great graphics and games! Smaller unit, very powerful
Cons Poor lighting, no backlight
Recommended it? Yes

Normally, hand held games aren?t my thing, as I find that games simply don?t translate well to a small screen. However, I can honestly say that the Nintendo (and it?s no secret that I am not too crazy about this company), has really outdone themselves with the Game Boy Advance creating yet another...

The Nintendo DSi is a great gaming device to have when it comes to portable gaming. Unlike the PSP, the Nintendo DSi offers a lower touch screen and has a rear and front-facing camera. The Nintendo DSi has a huge selection of games so you can find anything you want for a game. The features on the... Read full review »
