It seems CES 2018 wasn't just an avenue for new hardware as Hyperkin, a well-known retro game console developer, announced their prototype revival of a classic handheld console -- The Game Boy. This isn't just a mere revival though, as Hyperkin also beefed up the frame and body of the device and aptly named it the Ultra Game Boy.
