One day on the bus to school it was all anyone was about.
Kids were passing around cards, showing off and trading.
Someone showed me their holographic Tauros and I knew I had to get in on the hype somehow.
My sister must have learned about the vidya first, because she got her Red version which we all shared until my brother and I got our own Game Boy Pockets; he got Blue and I got Yellow.
I remember the December when my mother took our Game Boys away and said she was giving them to our cousins. I was distraught and so confused, we hadn't done anything wrong.
And then that Christmas we got Game Boy Colors and Gold and Silver.
Jesus, I still remember the smell of the perfume my sister got and sprayed liberally that same day. It must still be relevant because I smell it again from time to time, in the strangest places, and it takes me back, weird as it sounds.
Ahh, memories.
