And no, the original Gameboy never had a light screen. Nor did the Gameboy Color, or even the first revision of the Gameboy Advance. It wasn't until the Gameboy Advance SP that Nintendo finally put a backlit screen in a Gameboy device. Of course there were plenty of clip-on lights for all of the different models that worked to various degrees.
God, I remember having one of those clip on lights for the original Gameboy (I still have the Gameboy). That thing was a piece of garbage.
