OverClocked ReMix Celebrates Gameboy's 25th Anniversary With A Tribute Album
The Game Boy was released in North America on July 31, 1989 – 25 years ago today. In celebration of the original mobile gaming device’s 25th anniversary, video game music group OverClocked ReMix has released Legacy: Game Boy 25th Anniversary, a collection of 15 songs from the Game Boy and Game Boy Color, remixed and arranged by 16 different artists.
Legacy is the 49th community arrangement album published by OverClocked ReMix. Like all its previous projects, Legacy is free to download. The album’s 15 tracks include iconic classics like Super Mario Land, Mega Man II, Pokémon, and Tetris, as well as a few less well-known tunes like Dragon Ball Z: Legendary Super Warriors. To get a little more background on the project and get a little taste of the music, check out the trailer below.
OverClocked Remix is an unofficial gaming organization that’s been all about loving video game music since 1999. This isn’t the first time we’ve covered its work; you can check out earlier albums it's produced here and here, or go to its website for more info and way more music.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
