Is it Nintendo Game Boy or Nintendo Gameboy?

Technically, the official spelling for Nintendo’s first handheld is two words: Game Boy. However, the majority of people type “gameboy,” even those of us who know it’s two words rather than one. Every one of Video Game Gem Vault’s Game Boy games were spelled the “Nintendo” way. Well, a lot of people asked, “Dude, why don’t you have GBA games on your website? Like bruhh.” So, I decided to give into my nature to press fewer buttons and type it out how it should have been — and now we are using “gameboy.” The gaming world voted and decided this is the correct spelling now. Sorry Nintendo.

Game Boy or Gameboy — same console, same nostalgia.

At the end of the day, whether you type Game Boy or Gameboy, everyone’s talking about the same legendary handheld. Collectors search “Gameboy” way more often, so we’re rolling with it to make things easier to find. And eventually we won’t even use “gameboy” — in 5 years, be on the lookout for strictly “GB”!
