This is a bit before my time, as I was too young to have much knowledge of the first handheld rivalry. I did have a Game Boy Pocket (earliest handheld I ever owned), and I did have hands on experience with the Nomad. Curious to what the older gamers thought, though.
Looking back, this is hard to really judge since I was in kindergarden/elementary school during both consoles heydays...but if I had to pick one today, I would go with the Nomad, horrible battery life notwithstanding. Sonic the Hedgehog 2 alone does it for me, and the lack of more "adult" games make me even less interested in the Game Boy.
