Summary

This week we turn our eyes towards Nintendo's original, black and white (or is that green and...lighter green) Game Boy. The portable that was too large for a pocket may not have had the graphical oomph of its competition, but the Game Boy sure wedged its way into our hearts. And with the rumor last week that Nintendo may soon begin offering downloadable GB games for play on the DS via flash cartridge, it seemed the right time to talk about our fave handheld and its pea-soup screen.

Also: The games we've been playing this week include The Simpsons Game, Ratchet & Clank Future, Exit, Beautiful Katamari, Castlevania: Dracula X Chronicles, Mega Man ZX Advent, Battlestar Galactica, Prism, Puzzle Quest, and the Guitar Hero III and Scene It demos.

That's, you know what? It's been a year. I've grown sick of the obscure video game references. You need a new schick now?
0:55.9	I need a new stick, so give me some time.
0:58.4	Okay.
1:00.1	Boogers!
1:00.9	Who wants boogers?

1:04.4	No.

1:06.5	Maybe next week, folks.
