Game Boy Pocket commercial

[@47issues]

Back when portability was a selling point, and not a necessity

[@Bunnydawg]

i dont get it

[@Raylen23]

@@Bunnydawg back then something being portable was a reason to get it, it was a big plus. nowadays being portable isn't a plus it's the bare minimum it's what people expect.

[@Raylen23]

@@danielgrezda3339 exactly, lol but I think with PC's, and Xbox's and PlayStations, it's an exception because their capabilities are beyond the others, but anything below those capabilities should be portable in the eyes of consumers

[@4arms4life]

And then Gameboy Color walks in and he becomes more popular than Bob the Gameboy Pocket

[@dustra5000]

Then the micro...

[@kitterbug]

I imagine the gb light coming first and say hi, until being pushed by game boy color

[@megaboygamer]

and then the Gameboy classic if Nintendo make one

[@will_mcdermott]

No for some reason gameboy original still sold more until it was discontinued until 2003.

[@gamemastermaarten]

The Gameboy Color and later editions are later released. Or you had an future time machine when they come from the commercial. Video is from 1995

[@Dewotto]

Wait, the Gameboy Pocket did have a slightly large screen though.

[@will_mcdermott]

No. It does.

[@pev789]

It did but had the same amount of pixels as the original

[@anapasalic6608]

Yup , even bigger than game boy color s

[@tmwk__]

GBP had a much clearer screen.

[@LemmyKoopaVGA]

People have smartphones, I have gameboys.

[@كيفحالك-ج6ف]

you fricked a game?

[@atomicengineer]

Still have my gameboy pocket, still play it, the thing was made to last forever. Super Mario 6 golden coins, Wario Land, the pocket camera, etc. still work.

[@theMNmetaldude]

"stick it in your pocket today!" a great excuse when someone tries to steal it out of the store!

[@bensharpe64]

"the commercial told me to!"

[@shoozebelstar6664]

I love how silly this gameboy pocket commercial is!

[@bannanabread1697]

In My Opinion, i think its wholesome not silly! (not a personal attack on your opinion.)

[@Goochbag8]

So I says to the lady, I says, "I gotta leak in my sink" she said "Go ahead it's free!" hahaha

[@BradleyJuby]

Got a green Game Boy Pocket for my 10th birthday!

[@TravisGoss2011]

I recognize some of the voices. I wonder if some of the actors in this commercial were some of the members of The State.

[@illuminatioracle]

@poopybooyah it was from ren and stimpy's production music. forgot the exact title, but it is on the soundtrack.

[@adriannissen]

Rumor is the mindblowing budget for this commercial almost bankrupted Nintendo

[@archgirl]

"Not bigger, just sharper!" Is literally bigger. xD

[@UserOnline1324]

No, it looks bigger because the console is smaller in size but the screen size stayed the same

[@archgirl]

@@UserOnline1324 The display on the original Game Boy is 47x43mm. On the Pocket it’s 48x44mm. It may only be fractionally larger, but it is larger.

[@wbaba34]

@@archgirl you know this was 4 years ago

[@archgirl]

@@wbaba34 I do, but I don’t see why it matters. I got a reply a month ago, so I replied to that person. I don’t care how long it’s been, it’s no issue for me to respond anyways.

[@HawaiianPrint0taku]

The Pocket was my first gaming system ever. It was years before I got a PSX so I consider the Pocket to be my first.

[@Gameboy-Unboxings]

I always wanted one like in the commercials that have the "GAME BOY" in big font on the front of the console..

[@UFighterX]

I wonder if anybody has one of these gameboys

[@geekforlifevandc]

i like how on the box it said dont stick it in ur pocket (in the manual) but its called gameboy pocket it also says that on the light

[@WebVManReturns]

Unfortunately, when that bomb goes off in the war, Bob won't survive because he's not built like a brick.

[@dudemanbro06]

What a great motto. "Gameboy pocket! Stick it in your pocket today!"

[@Doude4222]

brings back memorys

[@Hayastantzi92]

i still have mine to this Day

[@jesusb131313]

This is so cool and awesome I wish every commercial was like this like an iPad commercial.

[@supermike64]

Clever commercial! I wish they did stuff like this today instead of just sex appeal and the use of popular sports figures to advertise things...

[@WebVManReturns]

Gameboy Micro: It fits in your coin pocket.

[@Kullen64]

I had a Hot Pink gameboy color. That was my first handheld console. Got it the day it came out and loved it.

[@tylerhrunek]

A Game Boy is still a Game Boy regardless the size.

[@Gotmilk0112]

This looks like a fanmade commercial, lol...

[@lorenavillalta3873]

But is is seen on television.

[@AustinAbero]

I love the game boy pocket

[@CraftStickBitch]

When he says " stick it in your pocket today!" does he mean steel it?

[@suspiciousflamingpyro]

He's thinner, sharper, can do everything the other guys can, he's perfect!

[@KuroNick]

My Gameboy always goes out with its friends during the day......

[@FocusSight]

Just when you thought the Game Boy Screen couldn't get any smaller, it did.

[@blackneos940]

My Dad got me a few Game Boys a year or four back..... :) It was when I was in my early 20's..... :3 I'm 26-going-on-27 now, and am going to play Blades of Steel on my silver GB Pocket..... :) RIP Dad..... :'3 And thanks for the cool Video of this great commercial...... :3 Ahh, the memories of being a 90's kid....... :3

[@Zachary90]

Everyone's gangsta until the GBA SP walks in

[@aleckermit]

Imagine making an ad where you deny that the screen got larger xP

[@reinbew62]

Best commercial ever

[@TheUnholyExpert]

"stick it in your pocket today!" XD

[@hasanalasadi809]

I have no idea why in god's name KZbin recommended this to me but i'm so glad it did otherwise i would have never seen this masterpiece

[@NFITC1]

I remember this commercial. Made me want one. :)

[@anapasalic6608]

Same🙂

[@kurbusmax]

“I don’t have any hair, Jim.”

[@0gami1tto]

GB Pocket would give sick detailing fades on raw jeans

[@pwnageprata]

awesome. you can totally tell its the humour of the guys from The State.

[@cutemimi25]

I kinda find it weird that a few of the Game Boy Pockets don't have a power light (or battery meter) which kinda bugs me but I got a game boy color (I'm ordering a Game Boy Pocket from ebay luckily mine has a power light).

[@wild0999]

0:27 Wow that guy's just a little too excited isn't he?

[@germanname1990]

Now you’re playing with power, pocketable power! Yeah, that was my first handheld. It was red and it came with Dr. Mario.

[@alexc8726]

Imagine they do this for the switch 2

[@SpartanA932011]

The Gameboy was originally marketed towards adults, so it was not uncommon to see "a grown ass man in a leather jacket" playing the Gameboy.

[@supermariobro93]

I recently got the exact same Gameboy Pocket from a game store, with "Super R.C. Pro-Am". Best $30 I've spent!

[@midarcher]

I miss these commercials

[@Dudeonwheels]

Gameboy Pocket. Yeah, your BACK pocket because that's the only one it'll fit in.

[@MikeOxImpressive]

Those are some big-ass gameboys.

[@nbv4]

David Wain posted this video on his blog a few months ago. it's him, Kerri Kenney, Ben Garant, Michael Showalter & Michael Black

[@NoriakiCuckyoin]

lol the ren and stimpy music

Those boys turned Nintendo Game Boys into Nintendo Barbie dolls... and I thought Nintendo cereal was weird...

***** Good. I've made a few Amour AMVs on my second channel. :D

[@corbeliousfudge3100]

Whats your second channels name?

[@ToysintheStatic]

It still fit in your pocket, even after they made the micro.

[@DrRobotnikPingas]

Ren and Stimpy music in the background 😂

[@EWOODJ]

Stock music

[@JustRegularLuna]

I had a solid black one. Well I do but some of the tiles on the LCD screen are gone out. One of the columns on the very edge is gone, and about half of the tile column next to it. Man, I played the p-windin out of that thing. Between Donkey Kong, Tetris, Pokemon (Red Blue and Yellow) and stuff, it saw a lot of use. Nowadays I play those games on the Gameboy colour as the missing columns of tiles make playing annoying, but it was the stuff. RIP Gameboy Pocket.

[@tadofficial1563]

I think the Tv ran out of money.

[@AvidAngels]

Love the batman animated series Gameboy..now I play it with emulator on my Nokia N900

[@acecomics150]

@Jaaonderdha you forgot, ads were more honest back then.

[@ScootsNBhistorybehindthegaming]

it's all fun and games with that thing until you squash it and break the screen

I remember these commercial as a kid

[@ghostboy323]

Little boy: mommy i want a new gameboy mom: but you already have one little boy: yeah but this one talks!

[@deidrecullum5754]

*buys fake* kid mommy this isn't a game boy mommy part 2

[@roland_the_cursor]

lol back in the day when it was cool to have different coloured game consoles.

[@SpongeBobFanatic-dy6ls]

HOLLY SHIT REN AND STIMPY MUSIC IN THIS COMMERCIAL AND SETH MCFARLANE IS THE VOICE OF THE GAMEBOY POCKET!

[@SPIDER-ut3wt]

I don't think that was Seth MacFarlane's voice.

[@andresruval]

i have the silver one, i have it right next to me. i just need to find the games now

[@AReed-bd5gf]

Sounds Like Jeffy When He Says Dork 0:11

[@Paulygon]

Lmao it does

[@2dudesonabike]

Pockets must have been big back then, I can hardly fit mine in my pocket hahahha!

[@IIMayhewII]

Gameboy pocket has a charm that the other gameboys just don't have for some reason.

[@FunkyStudios]

So if Bob was implied to have been originally a OG Game Boy, how the hell did he turn into a Game Boy Pocket.

[@puppetchaos]

And then the kid sat on it.

[@SPIDER-ut3wt]

Hehe!

Notice they're standing next to the water cooler the first 0:00 -2 seconds

[@whistler879]

Damn this looks sick. When does it come out?

[@grongy6122]

huh, it took 12 years to answer to a joke

[@TrashbyDesign]

2025 we just gotta wait a bit longer!

why would you put an electronic device in your back pocket?

Later that night, Bob got lucky with the thicc Red Game Boy

[@beckybecky125]

"So Bob, do you still play all the games?" "All the Game Boy games, babe." Wait till 1998, Bob. Wait till 1990 fucking 8.

Yeah he won’t think your vocabulary is so sweet anymore

[@XxJerk48xX]

wait....the Game Boy came in more colors!!!!

[@TheMamaluigi300]

Jerk48 It was the Play it Loud campaign in ‘95

[@gamemastermaarten]

Gameboy Classic has since 1989 only the one with pink en grey buttons. Later at 1994 you had color version as Green Black Red Blue and Yellow That made each of one looked which Gameboy Classic Color look you want. Now 24 years later the Color versions of Gameboy Classic are rare as you completed the box or manual. I want also the color versions. I had almost an black Gameboy Classic from Japan. But it was sell from another user. And the item is sold. :(

[@MrToastOmnomnom]

And this is when I saw my gameboy talk...They said I was crazy!! BUT SEE!!! SEEE!!!!!!

[@garciaalvin3]

i lost many gameboys in my days,ahhh .....memories.

[@DavP0w]

Why is the Game Boy logo on the DMG's huge ?

[@XEMFRIR]

Actualy I had a Gameboy Pocket. The screen was actualy bigger than the original.

[@shanthegamer21]

Those GBs with the big-ass GameBoy logo on them are the most rare out of them. I wonder why Nintendo never made those a variant. Lol

[@SweetSawlt]

Is that a gameboy in your pocket or are you happy to see me? XD

[@guitarcoverdft]

It can fit in back jean pocket

[@TheCoolEevee]

Team, we ran out of money

[@PaloJaurez]

They should put Bob up for an auction and see how much he is worth now.

[@CoolTunes08]

David Wain, Black, Showalter, Robert Ben Garant, and Kerri Kenny are the voices.

[@Apldeap100]

he sounds like stewie

[@rockolutheran]

could someone tell me why on earth the titles on the gameboy originals are completely different than the normal ones the lettering is huge
