Why the hell did the use Tetris? They should have made them play Pokemon Red/Blue or Mega Man or something.

Ah man, I hope they don't do one where they give kids a Dreamcast... I can handle the Gameboy hate but that would kill me inside...

I dread to think what they'd make of the ZX Spectrum which was my first gaming platform >_

high point- one kid wanted it for Pokemon Red/Blue
low point- "isn't this a phone cover?"

Because that was what came in the box when the system originally launched.

It was the game that came with the Game Boy, and is pretty much the first game people think of when some one mentions the Game Boy. I would've prefered if they used Super Mario Land instead, but Tetris is still a good choice.

That's not the point. Tetris isn't what sold the Gameboy to 60+ million people. It shouldn't have been used as an example of what the Gamboy was. It makes the Gameboy look far more ancient than it actually was. It was much more than just falling blocks.

No. Pokemon is what most people think of when someone mentions the Gameboy.

They should show the Game&Watch, only one playable game on a single device :).

Not the original brick. Most people associate Gameboy Pocket or Color with Pokemon. The original brick was basically Tetris machine.

Pokemon came out waaaaaaay late in the GBs life. So late in that, if it was a 360 title, it'd be up for release in the West next year!
