What's in Your Pockets? (1990s)

This week on The Busy Signal, we’re digging deep into the oversized pockets of the 1990s. Remember stuffing your JNCO jeans with half your bedroom? We’re taking a nostalgic look at the stuff that followed us everywhere during the decade. So grab your Discman, check your cargo shorts… What was in Your Pockets in the 90s?

Nintendo Game Boy

Before mobile gaming was everywhere, there was the Nintendo Game Boy — the chunky gray handheld that changed gaming forever. This week on The Busy Signal, we revisit the Game Boy and Game Boy Color era. From Tetris, Pokémon, and link cable battles, to worm lights, endless AA batteries, and those weird accessories that somehow made perfect sense at the time. It’s a nostalgic trip back to the days of portable gaming, school bus trades, and trying to see the screen under literally any light source possible. Remember to reach out and touch the past.
