What if one of the most successful handheld consoles ever wasn’t built with cutting-edge technology—but with a completely different mindset?

In this episode of Tech Stories, we explore the incredible story of Gunpei Yokoi, the overlooked engineer at Nintendo who created the legendary Game Boy.

Starting as a maintenance technician on the factory floor, Yokoi didn’t follow the race for the most advanced technology. Instead, he developed a powerful philosophy: using “lateral thinking with withered technology”—a simple idea that would go on to shape the future of gaming.

Tech Stories tells the hidden, surprising stories behind the world’s most influential tech companies, inventions, and creators—packed with insights, suspense, and real lessons you can apply.
