The Game Boy may not had been the first handheld with changeable cartridge games that honor goes to the 1979 Milton Bradley Microvision (More on that on a later date) but Nintendo has some heavy hitting IPs on there belt and made the Game Boy a house whole legend.
The Game Boy was Nintendo's second handheld system following the Game & Watch series introduced in 1980, and it combined features from both the Nintendo Entertainment System and Game and Watch. It was also the first handheld game to use video game cartridges since Milton Bradley's Microvision handheld console. It was originally bundled with the puzzle game Tetris.
In the summer of 89 I got the Game Boy and the first 5 launch games from K.B. Toy Store and they are,
Alleyway
Baseball
Super Mario Land
Tennis
Tetris (included with handheld)

I can still remember the day I took a bus over to a now defunct music store to pick up a Game Boy. The library was definitely far bigger then that, though. And I definitely made some good choices with Zelda, Star Trek: TNG...and, of course, Tetris.
Alas, if those were all the games at launch when I went for one...I would have passed on a Game Boy.
