Received a box of old toys for my kids and stuff in there was this ad. The nostalgia hit real hard.

    Gaming in the late 90s through the mid 2010s was just on another level

    2003 and 2004 were probably the years with the best games.

    Oh dang I’m pretty sure I had the same case for my GBA SP. Seems kinda wild that two gamecube games cost as much as the system itself, though I guess this is pretty late in its life if the DS is coming out shortly.

  5. The ad shows the then upcoming DS.

    When the Nintendo DS was about to launch, Nintendo initially claim the DS will not be a replacement for the GameBoy line. They didnt even want to call the DS a GameBoy as they fear the DS might flop.

    Had Nintendo marketed the DS as the next generation Gameboy by calling it the Gameboy DS, we would have seen its successor being called as Gameboy 3DS and the Switch might have been known as the Gameboy Switch.

    Adjusted for inflation, those GameCube games on top are about $83 in today’s money.
