GameBoy fills new niche

Link: Education

Pete Suarez and Jo Ann Holferty want youngsters to use a GameBoy to do more than learn about Pokemon, Super Mario or Zelda.Like learning instead about math, science and history. Their company, Pocket Direct LLC, is an official Nintendo publisher that has produced Pocket Professor KwikNotes, a cartridge for various GameBoy platforms that features basic information about several educational subjects, allowing the devices to be used for education rather than play.
