Following this rule, will Nintendo begin with the original Grey DMG as their GameBoy Mini console? We’ve had the SEGA Mega Drive Mini, which means that it shouldn’t be too long for the fabled Dreamcast Mini drops. The ‘classic mini’ series has so far started with early consoles releases and moved in chronological order. Let’s break this down a little before our brains explode. I’m not suggesting that Nintendo have managed to genetically modify a Ditto to save on production costs, but with every evolution of our favourite handheld coming under the category of ‘a classic’, the choice of which style the gaming giants chose for their GameBoy Mini is a question that is still up in the air and will undoubtedly divide gamers. So when the GameBoy Mini does finally drop into our laps, it’s a complete mystery as to what shape it might take. It seemed like the pinnacle of gaming surely it couldn’t get any better than this? If you’re an avid Retro Dodo reader, then I don’t need to go into the history of the handheld from here on out (but for the purposes of my ever-growing word count, I’m going to do anyway).įrom the best Gameboy Color games and the best GameBoy Advance games, through to the best WonderSwan games on Yunpei’s second and less well-known portable gamer, the handheld has constantly evolved and still is changing today.īetter graphics and a backlit screen aren’t enough to satisfy gamers anymore they want all the games in one place, a streamlined console to go with their latest iPhone, and online connectivity to be able to play with their mates that they met on their ‘garp yaaaar’ (that’s gap year to everyone else).

Rumours surrounding the arrival of the N64 Mini and the GameCube Mini are coming thick and fast, especially with the arrival of a modded Nintendo 64 Handheld, so what better time to talk about a scaled-down version of the handheld that started it all. Nintendo have been pretty hot with their mini console series thus far the NES and SNES Mini consoles were a great success, with the latter finally bringing some of the best SNES games on the planet to new audiences. It’s no secret that the GameBoy Mini is one of the most anticipated and wished-for handheld devices by portable gaming fans the world over.
