GameBoy, GameBoy Pocket, GameBoy Light and GameBoy Colour. What next?
It's GameBoy Advance. The new GameBoy has a 32 Bit CPU and a 2.9'' wide screen. This makes GameBoy Advance have a finer display and faster processing.
Nintendo has also added some new buttons for better operation of games. The "L" and "R" buttons have been added on the top, like the Super Nintendo and N64 controllers. Almost everything that has been in the old GameBoys have been upgraded, as you can see below.
