Systems that emulation made irrelevant.
>it's a NES YOU CAN TAKE WITH YOU
...but we can all just take a NES with us now.
Vita, Phone, Switch,... a GBA (oh yes it can)
So what's the point of the Gameboy other than pokemon if every experience can just be had better on the NES or SNES version?

Like such famous gems as:

>>7067517
Legend of Zelda Oracle of Seasons/Ages are the best top down Zelda's IMHO. Or did you specifically mean original GB? I honestly never thought about what games were GBC only or on both.

Actually I find consoles with integrated displays to have some of the highest levels of authentic texture.

Great point, a lot of low res games don't look the same stretched over a high res modern display (or taking up 1/100th of the screen of pixels are 1:1). I prefer playing older games on PSP or 3DS if possible.

Maybe not famous gems but games like >Kwirk/Puzzle Boy
>Catrap/Pitman
> Ninja Gaiden Shadow
> Bionic Commando (a bit different from the NES version)
and

That's a fair amount of stuff that makes the GB worth playing
