We recently picked up an original 1989 Nintendo Game Boy at a local flea market, and were instantly reminded why these handheld consoles are still so collectible. The Game Boy revolutionised portable gaming. Its simple design, durable build, and long battery life made it an instant classic. Launched with the legendary game Tetris, it brought video gaming out of the living room and into the hands of millions. Collectors love the original Game Boy not just for nostalgia, but for what it represents: a turning point in gaming history. Even well worn units are sought after for their design, durability, and cultural significance. Whether you're a retro gamer or a serious collector, the original Game Boy is more than a console, it's a piece of tech history.
