"Why is it called a Game Boy, girls can play it too, why can't it be called Game Boy Girl" or whatever she said, that girl either is a Tumblr feminist or will sadly grow up to be one -__-.

She will post on neoGaf about how she wants Link to be a girl.

A girl, who needs no man, and that can save Hyrule by herself, without the help of any man, to be more exact. But seriously, that girl must see that it is just a freaking name, and that Game Boy Girl,  would just sound stupid.

It sucked hardware wise even when it was new. Of course kids used to a DS and 3DS will think it is weird.



I like that asian boy ! He's just a kid but has with a great mind and personality.



I am old



Well I actually thought the reactions were pretty okay, better than I expected anyway. Most seemed to like it and recognize it was just old. There were even some that already knew what it was.

Well, that was....... interesting to say at least! I would love to see their reactions to the Virtual Boy though!

Some of them knew what it was, others didn't but as it's something from our era (and I mean anyone older than 20), yet how did that 13 year old kid not know how to turn it on? Sure a 8 yr old might not but 13.



Hmm, pie.

"They had to use buttons back then"

LOL

"You mean you have to use your hands? That's like a baby's toy!" ;)



Liked some of the reactions but the ipad/ipod (touch, buttons suck) comments were cringe worthy.

Easily the part that makes me feel old. I find touch controls to be unresponsive and clunky next to the precision of buttons. If I can, I always choose trusty buttons.
