T3 Magazine compared the durability of an iPod, a Nintendo Game Boy, a Pentax camera, a Nokia 7600 phone, and a laptop, according to Macworld UK, to discover that the Game Boy withstood their tests the best and longest.
The challenge involved dropping the items in a muddy field in Wales, driving them in an off-road vehicle, and subjecting them to a clay pigeon shoot and paintball fire.
The Game Boy withstood these tests the longest. This shows Nintendo knows its market very well and bodes well for the durability of the Nintendo DS and its dual-screens.
