Your childhood gaming can be justified now! (sorta)

[Chaotix Bluix]

The Nintendo Gameboy has joined the ranks of the National Toy Hall of Fame, putting it alongside the likes of the Slinky, Barbie, Lego, the Atari® 2600 Game System, and a stick.

Personally, I'm not sure what this means in terms to nowadays as handheld gaming has changed quite a bit... but it's certainly an interesting tidbit.

See for your own eyes:

Game Boy was added pretty recently, and guess what, it's 20 years old.

The stick was added first due to the use by children via imagination.
