History of Nintendo: The Game Boy Color

ONM remember the handheld granddaddy
Ah, the faithful old Game Boy Color, handheld forerunner to the GBA and great granddaddy of the all-conquering DS, DSi and now, the DS XL.

We've got our rose-tinted specs on today and have gone all gooey with nostalgia after poring over this splendid little History of Nintendo: The Game Boy Color feature from our colleagues over at Official Nintendo magazine.

There's a potted history of how the GBC was conceived, the battle against Sega's Game Gear and ONM select their five very best Game Boy Color titles.

So if you want to bathe in the gentle glow of some golden Nintendo memories from a more innocent age, why not head on over and remember one of the truly ground-breaking handheld devices.

It's a fine read indeed and you'll also find extensive links to more History of Nintendo goodies further down the page.

Good times indeed.
