Nintendo Game Boy Advance

Nintendo · 2001

The Game Boy moved to a 32-bit ARM CPU in a wide landscape shell, but kept backward compatibility with Game Boy and Game Boy Color cartridges. The reflective screen is the ordinary complaint; the library and the battery life are why it worked. The indigo launch model is common, and modified backlit screens are everywhere now.
