The Gameboy was Nintendo's first handheld game system based on cartridges. It was first released in Japan and America in 1989 for US$89.95. It was released in Europe the following year. The Gameboy was originally bundled with Tetris.
The original Gameboy was bigger than the later Gameboy Pocket, earning it the nickname "the dinosaur." It also required 4 AA batteries to play and had a shorter battery life than the Gameboy Pocket. It's original color is a tan. Variations include clear, white, black, green, red, yellow, and Manchester United Football Club.
