I had the original, but the games were super expensive, so I had three of them: Tetris, Super Mario World and Batman, to my enjoyment as a kid, in that level of suckitude. Tetris was fun until I beat it every time. The other two were too hard for me. Also, Batman just sucked as a game.
By the time the GBC and then the Pocket came out, I was in college and “too old” for “kids games,” so I played “real” games on a computer. Never had an NES and never bought another Nintendo product until the Wii. Now I wish Nintendo would put out a modern version of the Wii.
