ITT: Stuff that makes you feel old.

I had a gameboy pocket when they first came out. My cousin had a gameboy a year before that (I remember handheld games being black and white...).

*cough*Game Gear*cough*

To elaborate for those who don't know, the Sega Game Gear was released only 2 years after the Nintendo Game Boy (making it one of the very early handheld game systems) but the Game Gear games were in color and had a built in adjustable light. So even though the earliest handheld games were in black and white, it didn't take long for them to find color.

Edit: Just to add on what makes me feel old, thinking back and remembering that the outside was fun and tiny toons still made references to Bush senior (IIRC)
