A large number of hardware is available around Nintendo's Game Boy Classic (DMG-01). Partly released by Nintendo itself, partly licensed and partly without license. On this page you will find a compilation of all kind of  hardware known to me. If something is missing, I'm happy to read from you.

PLEASE NOTE: Often the same hardware was offered by different suppliers in slightly modified ways and different packaging designs. In this hardware guide, I have refrained from showing very similar items more than once. You can find a more complete overview of items available for / realted to the Game Boy Classic in my "Game Boy Master Collection".

The stereo headphones were included with the main console in some sets. In Japan, this was sold separately under the designation DMG-02. The headphones were connected to the headphone jack on the bottom of the Game Boy. Unlike the Game Boy's mono speaker, the headphones could play sound in stereo.
