Penny Pinching: Comical and Ridiculous Times People Took ”Cheapness” To The Next Level

If you grew up in the 90s or early 00s, then you’re sure to remember the Gameboy – but just how popular was it? Well, the original Gameboy sold more than 118 million units worldwide. In America alone, if every Gameboy sold were lined up, they would stretch from coast to coast almost 9 times! 

Some sources estimate that the Gameboy accounted for nearly 60% of the handheld gaming market during its peak popularity in the 90s. So basically, if you didn’t own a Gameboy back in the day, you were basically a social outcast. But don’t worry; there’s always the Gameboy Color… just kidding. That’s so 90s!
