As the designer of the 8080 and Z80, that kind of makes Faggin the father of the brain of the Game Boy.
And I wasn’t aware so many Intel processors were developed in Israel.
I feel like if we walked down the entire supply chain and design lineage of a device like the Game Boy, we’d see a wonderful collaboration of people from many regions across time. All contributing to keep me quiet on long car rides.

- Waterluvian 3y agoTrue. But everything is trivia at a point.
