Another retro-style console was launched by Retro-Bit, and it is called the Super Retro Boy. The launching was done during the CES 2017, thus winning the BEST New Tech Award which was presented by Destructoid. Nintendo's best-selling Gameboy was the major inspiration for the Super Retro Boy, and this console can play Game Boy, Game Boy Advance, and Game Boy Color games.

Its D-pad is located at the opposite side of its AB smash buttons, so the similarities between the Super Retro Boy and the Game Boy were indeed noticeable. The black and white colors were exhibited during the event. No official color variants were announced yet, so for those who still own old Game Boy cartridges, you can still use them playing this new console in town.

The Super Retro Boy is packed with a ten-hour battery life, which can be recharged via microUSB. It also has a TFT high resolution screen for a great gaming experience. This is expected to be released on August, and it makes gamers long for that nostalgic gameplay that the Super Retro Boy can offer. It will be sold for a retail price of $79.99.

Since Nintendo Gameboy's release in 1989, it has become one of the top selling gadgets of the retro period. It has competed with Sega's Game Gear and Atari's Lynx during that time. Portability is a critical factor when it comes to attracting higher sales since players will have to enjoy the games through analog televisions and at the same time they can take the console with them anywhere. This made the players capable of sharing their experiences with family and friends, according to Attack of the Fan Boy.

Its success became a precursor to the many varieties of the console since the Game Boy Color made the games in full color and were a major hit. The Game Boy Advance took the portable gaming experience to a different level.
