| It is the Color of the rainbow in the gaming world. The GameBoy Color, was released in 1998. It was able to handle games with 32000 colors, ever though only 56 colors could be displayed at one time on the screen! Of course it was backwards compatible. |
|
| It is the original GameBoy, and it was the revolutionary turn in handheld gaming! It was released in Japan in 1989, and had major success selling 60 million copies. Later released was a updated version called the GameBoy Pocket! Between both the GameBoy, and the Pocket, in 1997 together they outsold the N64, selling a whoping 10 million copies! |

| Released in 1983, and it was the first success of video game consoles, for the most part anyway! It sold a stunning 62 million copies, with about 500,000 games made for it! At launch it cost about $100, which is $25 more than it was originally intended to! However due to the "Game Crash" of 1984, it was hard times for Nintendo to get it off the gorund. It was considered a family computer, so they gave it the nickname "Famicom"! It rocked Japan, and soon after, the west! Late on in '90-'91, in fear that the people had lost interest in their console. Nintendo released a new set, the basic, and the sport, the sport came with everything the basic had, plus the NES satilite, and the 4-player adapter! |

The biggest mistake Nintendo ever made! It was a 32-bit console, and wiith the competition at that day in age (PlayStation), it didn't stand a chance! Nintendo never expected it to sell lots, but they were hoping 3 million copies, then down to 250,000, but in Japan it sold a measly 50,000 copies! Now, however it is on their record, and we have to wonder with the next-gen consoles always arriving, will they ever make a repete. Well I guess that is up to their supporters! |

The PSone is the original console of Sony's that changed gaming for ever. You might think, it is just like the 64, with a 32-bit proccessor, but I ask you how come N64 didn't revolutionize gaming! Originally intended for a CD-ROM add-on for the SNES, Nintendo asked Sony to develope it. But after Son'y announced that it was developing it, Nintendo went to Philis to get it made instead. Which left Sony with a controversy, scrap it, or get Nintendo back for that stunt. As you all know they got them back, and got them back good! It was released in North America on September 9, 1995, and was a hit from the moment it took the shelves! As of May 18, 2004, Sony had shipped 100 million PSone consoles. There are currently over 7,300 software titles availible! |
