Design Porn: Game Boy Stuff

Share:

Was there ever a more delightful escape from long family car rides than playing Tetris on your Game Boy? Sure, those earlier versions might not have had a color display — like your lucky friends with Sega Game Gears — but something about the Game Boy always felt more legit. Or maybe we just convinced ourselves that we liked it more because it was cheaper, and our parents were unwilling to drop more than a c-note on a handheld gaming device. Either way, for this latest edition of Design Porn we’re rounding up a handful of Game Boy-inspired objects guaranteed to transport you all the way back to 1989; please leave tips in the comments if we’ve missed any others of note.
