Nintendo Yellow Game Boy Color (GBC)

Product Information

Fandabidozi How so? The beginning of this article lists the rules exactly as I stated, and the cover of every box of "Pokémon Gold/Silver" (as well as all those other games) lists them as GameBoy Color games that happen to be playable without the color on the original GameBoy. They're just not GBC exclusive games like "Pokémon Crystal." (See Commemt #101 for a quote of the pertinent information.) Prehistorik Man was technically amazing on GB with paralax scrolling and Faceball 200 as a true 3d game... or f1 Race as the first 4player game... there are so many noteworthy titles Quarth I've noticed that Pokemon Yellow dropped it's number 3 position, and Super Mario Land 2 in now in it's place!

Super Mario Land and Tetris are still my two favorite GB games, and I still have and play those games. SepticLemon Oh OK makes sense. Although technically IIRC Gold and Silver can be played on a regular Game Boy even though they are labeled as GBC games — Crystal is the one where it can only be played on a GBC. Quite a good list. It's nice to remember some of the games I played as a kid. Lethal Weapon was one of the better games for me. Gunpei Yokoi’s design philosophy – using proven, inexpensive components in new and interesting ways – continued through Nintendo's handheld linePositive assessment on the legacy of the Game Boy Color has also focused upon the merits of its game library, particularly for its third-party and import titles. Travis Fahs for IGN noted whilst "the Game Boy Color's life was relatively brief", it "built up a small library of excellent games", including Wario Land 3 and Pokémon Gold and Silver, and a "unique" and "previously unheard of" line of successful third-party games, including Dragon Warrior Monsters, Metal Gear Solid and Yu-Gi-Oh! Dark Duel Stories. [13] Ashley Day of Retro Gamer noted that the handheld had an "overlooked" status, stating "the Game Boy Color (has) an unfair reputation as the one Nintendo handheld with few worthwhile titles, but this simply isn't the case...returning to the Game Boy Color now reveals a wealth of great games that you never knew existed, especially those available on import." [38] See also [ edit ] Links Awakening is one of the greatest games of all time. Cannot argue with it at 1. Tetris is well placed at 2. My dad played Tetris for hours and hours sometimes in one sitting. I'm not sure he played a video game before or since. That tells you everything you need to know about the significance of Tetris on Gameboy SepticLemon Yeah, if there's one thing the Game Boy doesn't miss, it's puzzle games. There are a lot of great ones on it, but also a lot of bad ones. But I kinda like Deadalian Opus as well. The Game Boy Color (commonly abbreviated as GBC) is an 8-bit handheld game console, manufactured by Nintendo, which was released in Japan on October 21, 1998 [6] and to international markets that November. It is the successor to the Game Boy and is part of its product line. Critics like IGN consider it more akin to a hardware revision than a next generation product. [7]

Molemania should have been top 10. Such a clever (and hard) puzzle game, especially later. I would have put Batman and Balloon Kid higher too. I have fond memories of car journeys with both!Of course, Link's Awakening would be at the top. It's just a huge shame that Metroid 2, Motocross Maniacs and Bionic Commando only appeared in the 30s.They deserve more love than that! To play old pokemon game you just need a Gameboy, any product labeled "Gameboy" that isn't the Gameboy Micro will suit your purposes. If you need a new one, your best options are the following: Game Boy Color (not recommended)

Despite the Game Boy with the Altus Newing logo being an off-white shell, the Game Boy with the Altus Newing logo is actually the same as the white Play it Loud! Series Game Boy with the Altus Newing logo on it. Baker1000 I ended up with the same conclusion. For as basic as the first Super Mario Land is, it plays well and the viewable area feels right. SML2 was too zoomed in for me, and I found the game a bit sluggish. I didn't enjoy that one as much as I anticipated. Edit: I'm confused, I don't remember seeing Turtles II or Wario Blast the first time I looked at this list. I've got 2 games nobody has ever heard of that are AMAZING and should be on this list: Monster Max and Ninja Taro Game Boy Color hardware". www.nintendo.co.jp.

The company’s Game & Watch line let you take limited gaming experiences on the go, but the Game Boy was a different beast entirely.

Obito_Sigma Both Land 1 and 2 were fantastic games. I played them in the color era instead of DKC (which I didn't know was ported). Honestly for the GB the land games are better as they're pretty much copies of the country games but reworked for the smaller screen. a b "First Alone in the Dark Screenshots for Game Boy Color".

Bit of a lazy list – relies so much on listing multiple entities of certain games series to fill up space ( how many Mega Man games?!) at the expense of recognising oddities and classics like Monster Max, Trip World, Solomon’s Club, etc...
