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 a 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 make the system thinner so we could carry our best friend always with us and the Game Boy Color offered us all dose fantastic color games in a screen capable of showing up to 56 different colors simultaneously.

But let's talk a little bit about this unique time capsule that the Game Boy is. Some of the greatest games of all times was 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 are classics, Pokemon red, blue, green and yellow became classic with the time, one of the first pokemon franchise video games, you was 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 play this game and the goosebumps when I catch my first pokemon.
