Game BoyReleased by the world famous and top gaming console maker Nintendo, Game Boy is a highly successful line of handheld gaming consoles. The worldwide appeal of this product led to the quick development and marketing of several accessories for improving the gaming experience of Game Boy. This gaming console was the successor of a popular brand of handheld gaming consoles ñ the Game & Watch (G&W) series. In 1989, the next generation handheld gaming console, ’Game Boy’, was released to make the path easier for its successors ñ the Game Boy Colour and Game Boy Advance. This playing console is claimed to be the first successful handheld console featuring quicker game play and superior polyphonic sound reproduction. The earlier batches of Game Boys were released along with a free version of Tetris, a popular video game. This highly addictive puzzle game contributed to a sale of up to 69 million units, which made the Game Boy the most successful portable gaming console in the history of video games. A popular Game Boy accessory was the Game Boy Battery Pack (or AC Adapter) that ensured several hours of extended usage, making it a good replacement for the expensive AA batteries that drained quickly. Another useful accessory was the Game Link cable that facilitated connection of two Game Boys to play the same game or a game from the same series. Popular Game Boy games and Game Boy Advance games include several football and motor racing games. |
