Another interestig fact: There was a motor scooter made by Aprilia. The Aprilia SR50 Ditech, which had a very advanced injection system instead of the usual carburetor. Tuning is very popular with normal carb scooters, but suddenly became very hard due to the new injection system of the Ditech, since it was computer controlled. So they came up with a Gameboy Cartridge, that you would put into your Gameboy and then connect it to the Ditech via cable. From there on you could alter and change the setup of your scooter and remove performance restrictions, which increased the top speed by almost 100% ! Eventually the Ditech models failed, because tuning was such a hassle. That was around 10 years ago. Today, scooters are all back on carburetor engines!

They went with green because there is more definition in green (due to how light and our eyes work) than any other color.

Link's Awakening DX is awesome. It mostly just added the Color Dungeon and beautiful colors. The game works on GB and GBC, but the dungeon was only finishable on GBC and got you either a red or blue tunic which boosted your attack or defense. There's also a photographer in the game that let's you print 12 pictures from specific points in the game using the Gameboy Printer. Never used that feature or owned the camera/printer for that matter. But simply finding him in the world and getting an in-game gallery was a nice little collectible, too. I know there's some more small changes like bugfixes, overall it's just a better version (unless you're a speedrunner, maybe) even if you're playing on original GB.

I decided today that I want to start collecting games for the Game Boy color. I think it's an amazing system with unique looking cartridges and definetly has affordable games. Thank you for making all these video's over the years. I finally decided on what I want to collect starting today

Hey Metal Jesus, As a former employee working at Nintendo of America in WA I can tell you that when it comes to the Gameboy Advance SP there are two (2) models, the AGS and the AGT. There are mostly minor differences in the hardware, but the biggest difference is the screens. The AGS screen will appear silvery when the system is turned off and does not do as well in direct sunlight when turned on. On the other hand, the newer AGT screen is black when turned off and does much better in direct sunlight while turned on. Other minor differences include the physical consoles color. You may have two (2) seemingly identical blue Advance SP's, but if you have both the AGS and AGT Nintendo had used different design programs to design the case in order to fit the electronics. The color name on one (1) is Electric Blue and the other is Cobalt Blue in example. On another note, the sticker on the bottom of both says AGS. C

I would also say: Metroid 2, Operation C, Kirby's Dreamland 2, Battletoads, Ninja Turtles 3: Radical Rescue on original GB. Link's Awakening DX, Zelda: Oracle of Ages/Oracle of Seasons, Metal Gear Solid, Shantae , Crystalis for GBC.

I think the GBC analogy may be a tad off. I'd say GBC is to GB as the DSi is to DS. Or New 3DS to 3DS. It's a slight upgrade, with exclusive (enhanced) titles that can't be played on the former, but the underlying system is largely unchanged.

The Gameboy Color was my first game console. I got the atomic purple one with a Nyko Worm Light and a copy of Spider-Man for Christmas, in 2000.

It's now 20 years later and I'm playing Castlevania II: Belmont's Revenge connected to a Super Gameboy, plugged into my Analogue Super NT and displaying in beautiful 1080p on my 40" TV. And I couldn't be more into it.

Yeah, it pre-dates the GBC. I think John's confused it for the actual backwards compatible GBC games, which were all on black carts, save for Pokemon Gold and Silver. Possibly due to the fact that it's one of the original GB games that the GBC has pre-set palettes built-in for (mostly all Nintendo published games), which beyond just applying a different swatch of colours to the 4 tone monochrome, can apply different palettes to sprites. Metroid II will display with Samus roughyl in her traditional colours, for instance.

Gameboy colour system really was a defining part of my childhood.

Your excitement is infectious! I scored a dmg gameboy at goodwill for $10 and I can’t wait for my screen replacement to deliver!

Great overview, goes straight to the point, and you know what you're talking about! We could go on and on about game cartridges and accessories, but I believe you nailed the essential part. It probably has been said already but one of the feature I liked about the Game Boy link cable was that it was compatible with the DMG system and the Pocket/ Color/ GBA, which allowed the older system to battle or trade with the Pokémon games, for instance. I still have my Camera and Printer at home, and since it's heat-print, you don't need any ink. Perfect for long period of dormance XD. Keep up the good work!

LOL. MAR 2012 is what i saw also.

i like how you didnt grow up with alot of this stuff & are far more interested in collecting games, consoles & info on it. kudos

I watched your video for the Gameboy advance sp and I recently bought one! Thanks!

When I saw the footage of the original Gameboy with the green screen... fucking loved it, so nostalgic..

“Get yourself a handyboy” - John Riggs That is hilarious

My grandma owned at least 4 original Gameboys. And probably another 4 Gameboy colors. She is well into her 80s and still has them. She had to keep getting new ones because she loved and played Tetris Soo much that she would wear out the "down" button. So every two years like clockwork my parents would buy her a new one. She loved the Gameboy. Idk if she plays it as much as she use to but I remember when I was younger that's what she loved to do. She would sit in her chair with her lamp and play Tetris all day. She also had one of those handyboys too but hated how heavy it was. I tryed using it one time too and I could stand it. I bet she still has it too. She use to have Wolfenstein3D on her windows 95 and everytime my parents would go play cards with them I would always spend that time in her office shooting Nazis. She is and was always an awesome grandma. Love your videos man keep up the good work.

It’s nice to know people still play their old handhelds , my wife got me a switch for Xmas and I was playing on my gameboy colour and she just didn’t understand that people still love them

And right up until now I never knew what DMG meant!

I love the game boy i remember playing In my youth in raíning days and waiting for my mom to go home and eat dinner togheter with our doggy sisi

For the record, I did not know about the colour pallette trick, you have changed my life sir.

Great video and buying guide! God bless you and yours! Praying for you!

You can replace the battery. I hear it's not hard, especially with regular GB games.

There is an album where the cover was printed off on a Gameboy Printer and taken with the Gameboy Camera.

Metal Jesus Rocks and guests videos help me to select games to buy (and to play). Thank you, i just bought a GBC recently and I want some titles which can be absolutly playable, even the technology is outdated.

The Gameboy Color actually has about 100 or so default palettes buildt in for older Gameboy classic games! It uses the checksum of the game title to select the "right" one.

Final Fantasy Legend series is actually the SaGa series, not the Tales of Series. Tales of is Namco, not Square.

+hawk10101982 You're totally right. I meant to say SaGa, too, but had Tales on my mind and didn't notice until I saw this video -_-

No worries. Just caught me by surprise when you said that. Still a great series and a great recommendation (SaGa and Tales of)

Also, Final Fantasy Adventure IS actually a Final Fantasy game. It's Seiken Densetsu: Final Fantasy Gaiden. So that does technically make it a Final Fantasy spin-off, and it would make sense to call it 'Final Fantasy Adventure' in the West.

metaljesus, you're a fucking legend and your content is godtier

The Handy Boy transforms your Gameboy in Optimus Prime.

I had the purple see-through version of GBC, it was amazing

Donkey Kong is such a good game. So glad I had a chance to discover it as a kid. Recently managed to pick up a copy while in Japan and it still holds up super well.

Metroid II: The Return of Samus. Can't recommend that enough. Ninja Gaiden Shadow. Much easier of the Ninja Gaiden games.

One game I'd definitely be down for getting the Zero Mission treatment would be Metroid II. Unfortunately, if that were to happen the guy over at AM2R would have no point in working on it if Nintendo hasn't shut him down by then.

+stmfx4 I love what they did with AM2R so far. Those Omega Metroids are scary. Nice little additions from the original game and spots that made you think. Such a great unfinished game.

I was hoping to see some recommendations for GBC games to get. Most of the games shown were Game Boy

Been rediscovering my gameboy games on a Super Gameboy 2 in a Analogue Super NT displayed on a 65" TV. GOAT gameboy set up.

Really awesome video guys!
