At this point, in a certain sense, Game Boy can be seen as the premise for the first mobile phone, when the player is mainly moving their thumbs and staring at the screen. This provides gamers with easy maneuverability, and also allows players to get used to and coordinate between consoles quickly. While the Atari Lynx and Game Gear have a screen in the middle and controls on the side, the Game Boy buttons are located just below the screen. This is essential and useful for gamers in continuous matches. The monochrome interface is a minor drawback compared to the competition, but in return allows its battery to have an incredible lifespan, up to 30 hours. First, its control designs are basic, but extremely effective. Game Boy is a significant development in the history of Nintendo. However, when it comes to this classic handset, the light gray color is still the color bold in the hearts of gamers around the world.

Since its release, Nintendo has consistently redeveloped the Game Boy consoles, making them thinner, lighter, more advanced in machines, and more eye-catching colors. At a cost of just $ 97, the device sold 300,000 units in the two weeks of its launch, a perfect start and a springboard for further conquest of the International Market. Released in Japan in 1989, Game Boy was designed by Nintendo engineer Gunpei Yokoi, who previously developed the company’s LCD Game & Watch game.
