And who would have thought that there would be 25 variations of the original game boy since then....or close to it.

My dad bought a game boy and played tetris at night before bed.

That, followed by pocket, color, and advanced gave me every iteration of game boy for a decade.

I haven't bought any since GBA.

On that same topic, my grandfather, rest his soul, could take anyone on at Tetris, Pacman, and Dr. Mario on the NES.

He could beat the hardest level on Dr. Mario with ease and send the biggest castles into space on Tetris. He was amazing.

I once got over 200 lines on Gameboy Tetris, I believe it was around 225. Still one of my proudest gaming achievements.

I remember getting my game boy.

Kirby's dreamland 2 was my first ever game on the system.

I loved yoshi cookie and Dr. Mario. My favorite puzzle games on the system. Wario blast was awesome too.
