Gameboy Accessories
Besides the usual accessories, this unit had some creative originals:
Gameboy Camera - A tiny camera that hooks-up via the cart slot. The resolution is not that great, but them again,
the GameBoy's LCD screen isn't high resolution to begin with.
Gameboy Color - Nintendo will finally release a color Gameboy unit after 10 years of having a LCD display. The
new unit will look just like a regular Gameboy, expect it will have a color display. The display is based on sos technolog.
Gameboy Color Cases - Differnt Colors to the old fashion Gameboy look
GameBoy Genie - Game Genie. It enables you to perform cheats
for any GameBoy game.
Gameboy Printer - This device can be used in conjuction with GameBoy camera. The GameBoy printer allows you
to print out snapshots made with GameBoy Camera or to print-out a screen shot from a difficult point in a game to brag to your friends.
GameBoy Pocket - A more portable version of the Gameboy unit which could actually fit in your pocket!
It also achieved a slightly longer battery life then the orginal and had better screen contrast. All this without reducing the screen size. (I think the screen was
actually enlarged.)
Super Game Boy - A game cartrage that hooks up to the SNES that allows you to play your Gameboy games
on your TV with color! Some games had pre-built color scheems and backgrounds for use on the Super Game Boy unit only.
Work Boy - Never heard of it? Not surprised. This was suppost to turn the gameboy into a (P)ersonal (D)ata (A)ssistant,
(PDA), by throwing in a miniture keyboard. It never became popular. Probally because people considered it more of a "toy" then a "work tool".
