Derby Computer Museum
Derby Computer Museum is full of hands-on computer exhibits. Play games on a SEGA or Nintendo console, write BASIC software on a BBC Micro, load games from tape on a Sinclair, or use our mini retro music studio. The museum is a registered charity run by volunteers. We're here to provide a fun day out and preserve computing history. We also give young adults with special educational needs (SEN) work experience.

🕹 GAME OF THE WEEK - Game Boy Gallery 4 on Nintendo Gameboy from 2002 🕹
Developed by Tose and released by Nintendo in 2002, Game Boy Gallery 4 collected some of Nintendo's earliest handheld experiences and packaged them for a new generation on the Game Boy Color. Featuring both the original Game & Watch versions and enhanced "Modern" adaptations, it offered players the chance to see just how influential these deceptively simple games really were.
Long before sprawling open worlds and online competition, these games challenged players to improve through practice, quick reflexes, and determination to beat their highest scores. Their pick up and play design made them perfect companions for school trips, family holidays and those moments when you only had a few minutes to spare.
More than 25 years later, Game Boy Gallery 4 stands as both a fantastic collection of mini-games and an important piece of video game preservation, introducing countless players to the foundations of Nintendo's handheld legacy.
