The Super Boy is one of the very first handheld consoles of all time. However, usually first means the worst, and this is no exception. When it was released, it costed $300 and has worse graphics than the Magnavox Odyssey. It had 2 much better sequels, the Ultra Boy and the Mega Boy, which were in colour and in 16-bit. It has 5 buttons and an Analog Joystick, which does not come with the system and costs an extra $10, however is used in every game so it is necessary.
