In 1996 Nintendo shrank the Game Boy by about 30 percent, swapped four AA batteries for two AAA, and replaced the famous green screen with a sharper black-and-white display. The Game Boy Pocket arrived just in time for Pokémon Red and Green in Japan, and it is the slim, pocket-sized version that many kids carried to school every day.

A NOTE ON CHARACTER
Each piece is built from a real pre-owned device, so light scratches or small signs of age may show. We think they are part of its story.
03 / From the workbench
Made by hand in Los Angeles.
Most people never get to see what is inside the device that kept them company for so many years. At FunBox Design, our studio team takes every Game Boy Pocket apart by hand: careful disassembly, deep cleaning of every single part, layout design, and final production in our Los Angeles workshop. It takes hours of patient, screw-by-screw work, because these machines hold some of our own best memories too. Our goal is simple: bring them a second life.
