    This is such a fantastic idea! The gameboy was such an amazing system and it’s so awesome to see it still being appreciated and even games on it being experienced for the first time by newcomers. My father was wanting to get into gaming as well but one of his main gripes was “there’s too many buttons to learn” I think I might just get him a gameboy! Idk why I didn’t consider that before thank you so much for the idea!

      My dad’s actually a bigger gamer than I am. He is being stubborn about retiring, but I’m going to get him a PS5 when he retires in the next year or so. He was also begging me to just get my mom something simple, as he too, didn’t want to have to explain how to use a Switch to her all the time. The Game Boy is such a good idea for those kind of folks, and you should see what people are doing to those things now. I almost bought myself one, not going to lie.
