Samenvatting:

Since its launch on April 21, 1989, the Game Boy has left its mark on the history of video games. After the worldwide success of the Game & Watch and Famicom (Nintendo Entertainment System in the West), Nintendo's hardware master Gunpei Yokoi utilized his experience by designing a simple machine with undeniable advantages. Thus, the Game Boy (with 118 million units sold worldwide) became the first console to successfully democratize video games among a diverse public.

Game Boy Anthology presents the complete catalogue of the Game Boy library published worldwide, cataloguing around 1,050 cancelled titles, accessories (including the most absurd and insane), as well as the collectors' versions of Game Boy Pocket and Game Boy Light. The hardware chapter reveals Nintendo's technical choices and the technology used according to costs and constraints.
