Thanks to MSNBC for their article discussing using classic consoles and handhelds to make retro-styled music. The piece explains: "Over the years musicians have since created software that allows them to tap into the sound capabilities of these old game platforms - as well as the newer Nintendo GameBoy", and references GameBoy sound packages such as Nanoloop and LittleSoundDJ , as well as composers like Micromusic.net, 8BitPeoples, and Paul Slocum.
