Game Boy autopsy: What's inside Nintendo's classic handheld

Above, you can watch an entertaining and technical look into Nintendo's original 1989 Game Boy handheld -- particularly, a deep dive into the Z80-powered CPU that drove the system.

It's a neat look into the console that launched Nintendo's handheld business, which has been the cornerstone of the company's success since it first took off.

It's worth a watch whether you were there in 1989 or just have a curiosity about how retro systems were designed and what they could do with their limited architecture.

The video comes courtesyof newly launched YouTube channel JackTech, which promises "retro, music, programming."
