Obama: Stop Playing GameBoy
February 26th, 2007 by Gibran Nawaz in Business, Offbeat, Portable
When promoting his presidential campaign in Texas, democratic candidate Barrack O’Bama said the following to a group of young supporters, asking them to ask their friends to help in the campaign.
“I want you to tell them, ‘It’s time for you to turn off the TV and stop playing GameBoy’ … We’ve got work to do.”
It’s interesting to see even more politics involved with gaming, but this time, with a blast from the past. It seems that the “Gameboy” term is still strong as can be.

“-Playstation/xbox for the cool people with actual income. (instead of getting it from grannie)”
