Pros: Color screen, great color pallette, nice games and PORTABILITY.

Cons: Shitty screen that gave you near zero visibility unless you played in a dark room, reduced resolution that gave you very little room to move and nearly no time to react, shoddy materials and worse construction (capacitors dying after it's first year were a thing, today's original game Gears are preactically all dead) and the absurdly short bettery life (6 batteries gave you 3 hours, tops) foring you to buy an AC adaptor and thus, removing the PORTABILITY aspect that was the entire point of a handheld.

There's a reason this bad Boy trampled over the Game Gear despite it's inferior screen: lower cost, better games, longer battery life and a sturdy as dicks build, as even after 2 decades a Game Boy would work just fine.
