Nintendo Game Boy Fanboy Club! (Fangirls allowed)

I did get my Game Boy Advanced console primarily for Pokémon, yes. It had Ruby and Sapphire available when I first went out to buy one, which seemed to be very promising; have seen some advertisements of these two games on television, and have been wanting to get my hands on a copy and play ever since. When I was finally able, it really excited me; have enjoyed each and every second of going through it, really!

On top of this, GBA also had support for GBC cartridges, which is great, because back then, there were a ton of Game Boy Color games that I had yet to successfully get done; this gave me a chance to keep the opportunity alive, because when purchasing a set of GBA, I traded my GBC in so that I'd be able to save some money and whatnot (it wasn't much, unfortunately, but still).

Similar things apply for DS. As for 3DS, however, this is a bit of different story; I wound up getting this console for many series all-together (StarFox and Legend of Zelda would be great examples), and not solely one.

Answer to current topic: Game Boy Colour was a better version of the Game Boy. i think it helped for next Game Boy and for me to Learn that every game was not black and white for me(TV was sh*t back then at least my to play SNES/N64 :/)

Answer to current topic:

Do you consider the Game Boy to be a Pokemon machine?
Yes only because in my opinion without pokemon the gameboy never would have been as popular i mean face it most systems by Nintendo wouldnt have much without pokemon.....

Umm.... no. The Game Boy was a huge success due to Tetris, not Pokemon like eight years later

Well thats not what I said it was a success but it wouldnt been as succesful without pokemon in my opinion but its just an opinion so not 100% debatable ;)

Tetris sold 32.26 million copies, while Red and Blue sold 23.64 million copies.

Tetris was the s%$t back then! remember my brother playing day/night. xD

Favorite Game Boy Game: Kirby's Adventure in Dreamland. There were many fun games on the GBA but this is one of the games I remember most. This was one of the first Kirby games I play, and I remember like on world 7 where you have to fight Metaknight as a boss battle, and it always astounded me every time as a little kid. I thought that as a character he was so cool for some reason. Such a fun, easy game.
Answer to current topic: Some of the best Pokemon games were on the Gameboy, but I think that it would be better to see them on a console. I would rather play a game like ORAS on the Wii U than the 3DS. The Gameboy is knwon foor their Pokemon games, but awesome games like Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga, Metroid, LoZ, Golden Sun, Final Fantasy, WarioWare made leaps and bound on the gameboy.
