I know, I know. Its been quite awhile since I've posted anything. There's been no shortage of news over the last two months, but unfortunately time has not been on my side lately. Starting a new job will do that to you :)
Anyway, I just wanted to make a quick post today that will make everyone feel pretty bad about themselves: Nintendo's Game Boy turns 25 years old today...
Yup, let that sink for a bit. Unfortunately, I was never "lucky" enough to have a Game Boy. I put "lucky" in quotations because by brother and I grew up with a Sega Game Gear, which is definitely a luxury problem and at the time thought was much better than Game Boy due to its color screen and better graphics. However, in retrospect, it sucked pretty bad because of a lack of games and it's ability to drain 6 AA batteries in the matter of an hour.
Regardless, happy birthday Game Boy. If you're interested in learning a bit more about the handheld console or have no clue what it is because you were born after it's time (jerks), Geek.com has a pretty good write up on the history of the device.
Did you grow up with a Game Boy? If so, what was your favorite game or your fondest memory playing with it? Let me know in the comments below.
As always, stay nerdy my friends...
