Do the Game Boy sales include Game Boy, Game Boy Pocket, Game Boy Color, and, in Japan, Game Boy Light?

I've bought probably 12 N64 games new, and 34 or so GameCube games new. The NES and Super NES are too old for me to buy new, (I was almost 2 for the Super NES launch). But I've probably bought 30 Game Boy games throughout the years new.
