Super Game Boy was the Nintendo Switch of the ‘90s
One of the best features of the Switch is the ability to play the same game on a portable device or through your TV, playing where you like and keeping all your progress and saves. But before the Switch, Nintendo offered a similar experience with its Super Game Boy, a device that let you play Game Boy cartridges on your TV.
You stuck this thing into your SNES, popped in a Game Boy cart, and that was it. You were then able to play that game on your TV, sometimes with enhanced features like color and custom borders. Pop it out later and back into your regular Game Boy and you could keep playing the same game on your road trip. Super Game Boy was a great idea that Nintendo would return to, in a way, with the Switch.
