We've seen some bonkers advertising with the Game Gear and its hardware, but now we're gonna go further as SQG looks back at how the Nintendo Game Boy handheld was aggressively marketed on TV. From rap music, to 50's bubblegum pop, early use of CG, Pokemon trading, the sky is the limit when it comes to how the Game Boy will advertise its hardware, peripherals, and most importantly: the games!
