Via Flickr, some little fellow attempts to visit as many world-famous locations as possible with his Game Boy Advance in hand. But what could he be playing? [Thanks, David]

Flickr user oceanpark claims the above Game Boy was damaged in the Gulf War and still plays Tetris. Amazing. [Update: Whoops! Someone tell Blake there is this cool company that makes elf-like and plumber games that are really fun. I guess you can’t know everything about Nintendo, although I’ve been to Nintendo World Store and lived online for the past 10 years, this one must have slipp...

The Associated Press explores the still relevant and “grandaddy of them all” portable, the Game Boy, with reviews of three new games: Summon Night: Swordcraft Story, Battle B-Daman, and Games Explosion.

Though I’m not big on covers (I even leave my bloody iPod Video unsheathed) this may be up your alley. From the site: “BoxWave’s FlexiSkin? is a new soft case for your Nintendo Game Boy Micro that lets you play games while it’s protected! It comes in your choice of five colors: Aluminum Grey, Coral Pink, Frosted Clear, Future Blue, and Smoke Grey.”

At the end of the month Nintendo is slated to release a ton of non-games and casual games that are intended to appeal to their growing audience of both older gamers and also female gamers. None of these games, however, are playable on the new dusty pink GBA SP. Why? Because they’re all for the DS.
