For example, the Game Boy to Game Boy Color is a real upgrade, as they use different cartridges, whereas the Game Boy Advance to GBA SP isn't, as the game format didn't change. It should come as no surprise, then, that, accounting for inflation, the Game Boy today would cost around $240.

Even after adjusting the price of every other handheld or hybrid Nintendo console for inflation, the Nintendo Switch 2 comes out as the most expensive. Handheld and hybrid consoles have hardly ever been super cheap, perhaps except for the Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance.
