>>12923080Or on a plane! Back then, I had an NES, so when they introduced the Gameboy without the money to support having any more gaming systems. I was fine ceding some of the amazing exclusives, as I believed I had better versions to play at home and most the conversions to the Gameboy had to make sacrifices to accommodate the portable hardware. I didn't mind playing whatever they had for the system on kiosks, typically Tetris, but it did seem like a split focus from Nintendo Power for a different audience from the NES player. The closest I got to getting one was a chain retailer going out of business setting all their prices on clearance, but they kept raising the starting price of the Gameboy such that a 50-75% discount didn't amount to a significant price reduction (illegal, but they were going out of business) from its $90+10.1%tax, because they raised its retail price up to $300USD while they were clearing everything else out. Most my gaming outside then was on arcade machines anyway, and when I ran out of tokens that's what a visit to those kiosks or some computer department was there for me to enjoy other games. For portables, I favored the other ones over the Gameboy for the longest, as those offered more for me with the TurboExpress and NGPC still being my favorites. I suppose like always, my taste in games/systems is different than most.

>>12923080>"Now you can be gay outside!"What did he mean by this?
>>12923080With Game Boy you didn't have a choice but to play outside because if it weren't for the sun that screen was impossible to see... thankfully Game Gear and Lynx CHADS didn't have this issue.
