Why did Nintendo stop making Game Boys?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo_DS
IS THAT FREAKING TWILIGHT PRINCESS?!
hey evryone

Yeah, but that's not *Game Boy*. It was the dual screen gimmick being tested, it was successful, and they could have absorbed it back into the Game Boy line.
>>345423447
Not enough gimmicks.
>>345423447
Because its name not gender inclusive

it's just name for nintendo's handhelds. just cause it's called DS doesn't mean it isn't a "gameboy" ya autist
>the DS is an experimental companion piece alongside the gameboy, not a replacement, we swear. Here, have Game Boy Micro.

A DS is a DS, and a Game Boy is a Game Boy. Just like a girl can't be a boy and vice versa. Physics, biology, definitions, etc.
>>345423447
cuz that's sexist op
>>345423447
They empower the patriarchy.
I'm so happy they didn't end up calling the DS the "City Boy" like originally intended.

what
Nintendo gave lip service to the idea of the DS being a separate and distinct idea from the GameBoy line; this was most likely just to cover themselves if it sunk.
But the DS was hugely successful, was capable of traditional games anyway, and ended up with a solid variety. The distinction between the DS and the GB was quickly arbitrary. I wouldn't mind another single screen handheld from Nintendo that brought back the GB name, though.
you can't rerelease something if you continue making it
anyone else steal money from their dad as a kid to buy a new Game Boy Color?
>>345425036
Tyrone, stop lying, you don't have a dad
>>345423998
A gameboy is a gameboy! You can't say it's a ds.
DS was a gamble, they weren't sure if people would take to the gimmicks, so the alternate branding was them leaving a way out
>>345425134
Nah, I'm a Polak and I was living in Queens. I did almost get mugged by a bunch of little niggers on the way to the store though.
>>345423447
What's that game?
>>345426087
it's some pixel art of Twilight Princess or Majora's Mask, I'm not sure which
It'd be hilarious if Nintendo revived the Game Boy and all the genderqueer wackjobs got outraged about it.
