About this deal

The original Nintendo Game Boy (model DMG-01) is a classic 8-bit handheld console first released in 1989. It features a dot-matrix screen with an adjustable contrast dial, five game control buttons including a directional pad, two game buttons, and Start and Select, plus a single speaker with an adjustable volume dial, and uses cartridges as physical media. Under the hood it packs an 8-bit CMOS CPU, 8KB of RAM, and a 2.5-inch display running at 160x144 resolution, with up to 15 hours of battery life. When away from a power source, the console runs on four AA batteries. This is a well-loved piece of gaming history, known for its affordable, durable design that helped bring video games into daily life. Classic titles such as Tetris, Super Mario Land, Kirby's Dream Land, and the Pokemon games gave the system a long and celebrated life. The Game Boy is also forward compatible with many Game Boy Color games, while the Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance are backward compatible with original Game Boy cartridges - making it a great entry point into a huge library of retro games.
