SkinnyDre 8 years 9 months ago Posts: 32	Well, the title says it all. I'm looking to know if the Gameboy from 1989 only came in Gray, or if Nintendo produced it in many colors like they did 8 years later with the Game boy pocket. I somehow have the souvenir that they produced it in different colors, but it might only be my imagination.... Thank you, Andre

Would you happen to know the year when Nintendo produced their colord Game Boy (The classic ones, not the pocket one) Or how many colors they produced? Thanks again for that fast and informative reply Andre

NickMania 8 years 9 months ago Posts: 1039	it was probably about 5 more colors added to the original grey color, Colors like Black, Blue, Green, Red, and Yellow. as for the year they were released it may have been 1992 or 1993. Edit:it seems that they also had a Classic GameBoy that was a Clear See Through One and here is a picture of it!

Gameboy was white/beige for the longest time until they unvieled "Gameboy Pocket" which was a smaller version of the same unit, but had multiple colors... and then I think it eventually followed up with Gameboy Color, and so forth.

Also, there is a Famicom-style GBA SP, and a Famicom GB Micro.
