Nintendo Game Boy, 90s pop culture!

Is a fact that this big gray buddy and his little brothers are one of the most iconic signs of the 90s pop culture, not just one of the biggest success of the big N Japanese company but an electronic device that brings us back to our childhood. The Game Boy brings us the first real portable with a bunch of fantastic games, the Game Boy Pocket makes the system thinner so we could carry our best friend always with us and the Game Boy Color offered us all those fantastic color games on a screen capable of showing up to 56 different colors simultaneously.

We enjoyed it so much that nowadays you still be able to find it in second-hand shops or auction sites. Today we bring you a unique list of titles and consoles that, if you're interested, we will send to you directly from Japan, a Japanese genuine Game Boy from Japan, cool right?

But let's talk a little bit about this unique time capsule that the Game Boy is. Some of the greatest games of all time were made for this system, hits like Super Mario Land, Metal Gear Solid Ghost Babel, Mega Man 5, Mario Land 2, Tetris, or the well-known and super famous Pokemon red, blue, green, and yellow version.

Despite games like Tetris or Super Mario Land being classics, Pokemon red, blue, green and yellow became classics over time, one of the first Pokemon franchise video games. You were able to, for the very first time, try to gotta catch 'em all! In my personal case, I still can remember the first time I played this game and the goosebumps when I caught my first Pokemon.

Some subcultures use modified Game Boys to make music, which is called 8-bit music or chiptunes. A specially modified Game Boy with a specific cartridge makes it possible to write music and to perform with a Game Boy. There are even live shows of chiptune bands!

We will write more about the chiptunes music and how you can make music with some of the 80s and 90s consoles but for the moment, here you have the list we promised you, check it!
