Man, Sports Illustrated For Kids on Game Boy takes me back. It’s basically a bunch of mini-games wrapped in that familiar magazine vibe—like if someone turned the pages into pixelated soccer, basketball, and baseball challenges. The controls are dead simple (it’s a Game Boy, after all), but some of those timed drills actually get pretty intense.

I remember getting stuck on the basketball free-throw mini-game forever because the timing’s weirdly strict. And the soccer penalty shootout? Way more satisfying than it has any right to be. It’s not deep, but there’s something about the chunky sprites and those little victory jingles that just works. Perfect for quick sessions when you’re waiting for the bus or pretending to pay attention in class. Still holds up if you’re into that old-school handheld charm.
