Game Boy Advance:

With the popularity of Nintendo Entertainment System, it came time for the creation of even more portability in a game system. The idea for the Nintendo Game Boy originally started in the 1970s but was first released in 1989. The creators wanted to create a game that was not only completely portable, but also light, relatively inexpensive, as well as durable. The Game Boy (advance) was named to represent its similarity to its big brother, the NES, as it was the same color, had the same configuration of buttons as on the NES controllers, and it used mini cartridges. The Nintendo Game Boy was quite technologically advanced for its time with an 8-bit processor and 8kBs of RAM. It wasn not much to look at in terms of screen size and color (only having four different shades of grey), but the makers thought of everything to make the portable gaming experience a great one for the player. If one was tired of going through batteries all the time, there were jacks built into the side to allow the plugging in of a rechargeable battery pack or AC adapter. There was also a headphone jack that was a welcome addition, especially for parents. One could even link two Game Boys together for two-player games. One could even purchase a Game Boy Camera attachment and a Game Boy Printer to print the pictures out on.

The game most synonymous with Nintendo Game Boy was Tetris, as all Game Boy came with this game included, but there were many more titles in the library including Pokemon and Final Fantasy.
The next edition in portable Nintendo gaming was the Game Boy Color. The Color version of the original was released in 1998 and was so named for its colored screen. It was smaller than the original Game Boy and was the first of its kind to be fully functional even with the original Game Boy games. Game Boy Color had twice the processing speed of the original but the resolution of the screen was the same. Even so, the color screen could show 56 different colors at the same time. The case came in different colors, including see-through purple. The last game that was made for the Game Boy Color was in 2002, but its games are still able to be played on the Game Boy Advance.
Game Boy Advanced

The Game Boy Advance was first produced in 2001 and was a 32-bit gaming system. It closely resembled the Sega Game Gear, which was the original Game Boy rival. The Advance was also made to be able to play the same games as the Game Boy Color. There were different Game Boy Advance models such as the Advance SP, which looks like a small laptop computer, as well as the Game Boy Micro, which was a smaller version of the original Advance and allowed users to change the color by having removable faceplates. The most popular Advance games were in the Pokemon series.
