- The Game Boy line of portable game consoles date back to the first 'brick' released in 1989. Designed by Gunpei Yokoi, also responsible for the Game & Watch portable single-game systems, the Nintendo Game Boy was the very first portable game system to use interchangeable cartridges. The Game Boy Pocket, a smaller, lighter and more power-efficient version of the Game Boy was released in 1996. It featured nothing more than that and a black-and-white LCD display, as opposed to the greenish dot matrix screen of the original Game Boy. Another iteration, the Game Boy Light, was released exclusively in Japan, featuring a green back-lit display.

The Game Boy Pocket, a smaller, lighter and more power-efficient version of the Game Boy was released in 1996.

Another iteration, the Game Boy Light, was released exclusively in Japan, featuring a green back-lit display. In 1998 Nintendo released the Game Boy Color, featuring the same design as the Game Boy Pocket, but including a 32,768-color display with a maximum of 56 different colors on screen at any given time. 2001 saw the release of the Game Boy Advance, later followed by its redesigns - the Game Boy Advance SP and Game Boy Micro. During the launch of the Nintendo DS, Nintendo claimed that the new handheld was the company's "third pillar" rather than a true successor to the Game Boy line, but of course this information was false because in 2006, Nintendo of America's George Harrison stated that the Game Boy line would be dead by the year 2007. This fact was proven true, especially with the unparalleled success of the Nintendo DS. The Nintendo DS line was given new breath in 2010 with the announcement of the Nintendo 3DS.
