Even before that, they had the N64 Transfer Pak. And before that they had the SuperGameboy. They've been trying to blend mobile and console since they had both.

I wouldn't call that blending. That's just making it convenient to have both. What they're doing now is combining them into the same device.

I mean, the SuperGameBoy literally let you play GameBoy games on your TV. And it was hidden way deep inside of it, but Pokemon Stadium 2 had a GameBoy emulator that ran out of a Transfer Pak.

And the Gameboy Player for the GameCube.
