"Game Gear/Game Boy" for us old fucks. But yeah, shit never changes. My son now does the same with his Switch.
Original gameboy was not backlit. I think you could buy external lights that were like a tiny reading lamp you could attach to the top.
I just used a flashlight.
Tiny lamps, magnifiers with lights attached, the little "Lite Worm" you could plug on top that barely did anything besides put a bright spot on your screen...
There was a lot of bad ideas before the concept of a backlit Gameboy left Japan. Because of course they had an exclusive one with a backlight before the GBA was even a thing, let alone the SP.
