Hands up: Which one of you owned a Game Boy and still had games from it in the basement? We're just guessing that some hands will go up, as for many of us Nintendo's "Game Boy" was the first handheld of our gaming lives.
We don't know Redditor popfonics' exact connection to the Game Boy, but we do know that he has been diligently collecting games for the handheld over the last ten years. And not just any. Rather, the user's goal was to collect all Game Boy games that have ever been released in the USA (US Original Cartridge Set).
506 official titles - and 5 unlicensed
And that's exactly what popfonics has now done and shared pictures of its collection on Reddit. In total there are 511 titles - 506 official and 5 unlicensed Bible games.

This collection leaves many people open-mouthed; the Reddit post currently has over 17,000 upvotes. In the comments, the user is asked, among other things, which 3 titles were the hardest to find.
The answer:Tracking down a copy of Dick Tracy was a particular challenge, as was finding the US versions of F1 Pole Position and Jimmy Connor Tennis.
There were more Game Boy releases in Japan, fewer in Europe
A notice:The collection is all Game Boy games released in the USA. More or fewer titles were published on other continents. Loudthis sourceAround 800 titles were published in Japan, while in Europe “only” 459 were published.
However, the number of titles published in the USA is given there as 526, which would mean that popfonics has not yet collected all the games. There may be inaccuracies here, but either way, the Redditor's collection is pretty impressive.
How many Game Boy games do you still have at home?
