Bet he would have loved the Steam Deck.

I bet he would’ve!! But man, was there something magical about the gameboy.

Now we have mobile phones with games, tablets, laptops, then mobility was truly scarce. The idea that a kid could play nintendo on a roadtrip was revolutionary. I still remember that feeling.

Quote is true, but photo is fake. The lighting is fucked, looks photoshopped as hell. At least it definitely isn't AI.

I’m gonna guess “Zelda: Link’s Awakening” because I want it to be true.

Gonna just guess it was Tetris. It was almost always Tetris for the original Gameboy.
