GTA 5 Runs on Original Game Boy Thanks To Modded Cartridge
A modder has shown off how they’re able to play Grand Theft Auto 5 on the original Game Boy thanks to a modded cartridge. Grand Theft Auto 5 has been re-released multiple times across different platforms since it first launched on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 way back in 2013. The Rockstar classic has already been made available on the PS4, Xbox One, and PC so far. This year, GTA 5 will release on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S as well, in spite of another rumored delay.
Nintendo's Game Boy is one of the most popular consoles in history, selling almost 120 million units during its lifetime.

Interestingly, GTA 5 sits above Tetris in number of sales, which is probably due to both the number of times the game has been re-released as well as the popularity of its online component GTA Online, which continues to grow unlike GTA 5 — enough to get its own standalone release in the future.
