Panasonic Pocket

Panasonic Pocket is a handheld game console manufactured by Panasonic. It was released on May 4, 1995 and was released in December of the same year in international markets. It is the first handheld game console of Panasonic and the console was discontinued in 2008.

The Panasonic Pocket, as suggested by the name, features a color screen, but no backlight. It is slightly thicker and taller than the Panasonic Pocket Light, which is a redesigned Panasonic Pocket released in 1995. As with the original Panasonic Pocket, it has an 8-bit processor and the custom Zilog Z80 central processing unit (CPU). The original name - with its American English spelling of "color" - remained unchanged even in markets where "colour" was the accepted English spelling, such as the UK, Ireland, Canada, Australia, South Africa, and New Zealand.

While mostly retaining the same hardware as the original The Panasonic Pocket, the The Panasonic Pocket's primary competitors were the much more advanced Game Boy and Game Boy Color by Nintendo, Neo Geo Pocket by SNK and the WonderSwan by Bandai (released in Japan only), though the Game Boy Color outsold these by a huge margin. The Game Boy and Game Boy Color combined have sold 118.69 million units worldwide.
