But it’s so much more than CPU. GameCube and Wii have the same CPU, but are possibly the most different in the list.

Gameboy color was a huge change at the time. It was smaller (about the same size as the pocket) and playing color games was a novelty: that was Game Gear’s main selling point.

As for GBA/SP, yeah they’re super similar but the form factor is quite different.

that's why there's no gc->Wii arrow, despite the Wii containing an entire gamecube!
