The great of retro gaming in both PC and portable just in a distance of a Gameboy Color

Windows 3.1 on a Game Boy Color? That’s a nostalgia-packed twist! While it’s not an actual port of Windows 3.1, developer Ruben Retro has crafted GBS WINDOWS for Game Boy, a software that mimics elements of the classic operating system.

This creation isn’t a direct Windows 3.1 emulator but rather a GB Studio-made software designed to resemble the old OS. It includes a replica of the BIOS screen, a command prompt, and even lets users launch familiar applications like Paint, Minesweeper, and a media app.

Unlike typical software emulation, GBS WINDOWS for Game Boy comes on a physical cartridge that works with Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance. If you still have a Game Boy Printer, you can even print your creations from Paint—talk about a throwback!

Availability & Pricing

The cartridge was listed for €40 (around $45), but unfortunately, it’s sold out at the moment. However, interested buyers can sign up for restock notifications.

This project is a fascinating blend of gaming and computing nostalgia, proving that retro tech still has a place in today’s world.
