I absolutely LOVED my original GameBoy! Took it everywhere and even had the link cable to play 2-player games. My favorite accessory was the magnifying screen with the build in light. Drained the batteries faster, but I still loved it. Great video, dude!

@GregsGameRoom 2 года назад

My first Gameboy was the Color one you see at the beginning. Looking back, it was really hard to see without decent lighting!

@Gatorade69 2 года назад

Remember the soda Surge ? I won a Game Boy Pocket under the cap. The color was already out though so I traded it in and then bought a Game Boy Color (I think my grandma paid the rest of it for my birthday).

@BlinksAwakening 2 года назад

There is a way better color version of Super Mario Land 2 out there that I would recommend over the version you showcased. Also there are color versions of Pokemon Red and Blue that I personally would have included as well.

@GregsGameRoom 2 года назад

Yeah, there were several and it's sometimes hard to tell which is the best one.

@adamdenardis5438 2 года назад

Metroid 2 has another color version, doesn't it?

@TightPantsJack 2 года назад

@@GregsGameRoom The DX version by toruzz is the best one.

@jamesm1083 2 года назад

Super Mario Land 2 was modified by a guy who goes by Toruzz, I highly recommend that one. He worked on it for over a year, it’s a very beautiful mod, you can play as Mario or Luigi, and they even have different mechanics

@GregsGameRoom 2 года назад

I'll have to check that out. With so many hacks, it's hard to pick the best one.

@danpatrick7176 2 года назад

I was literally looking for a video about this topic! Thanks! Love these "DX" hacks for GameBoy.

@GregsGameRoom 2 года назад

No problem, thanks for watching!

@RAFAEL60160 2 года назад

9:33 Theres a color hack of super mario land 2 called Super Mario Land 2 DX, with improved colors compared to this version shown on the video, and some bug fixes and possibility to play as Luigi as well. It's a much better hack in general

@GregsGameRoom 2 года назад

Thanks for the heads up, a sequel video is starting to formulate now!

@SinistarPro_Mike 2 года назад

I've recently rediscovered the GameBoy, sort of I guess, after not playing on one for a good 20+ years. Trying old games I haven't thought about or played for just as long has been a real treat thus far. That Galaga is definitely at the top of my list.

@GregsGameRoom 2 года назад

It’s so underpowered I’m amazed any good games were made for it!

@adamdenardis5438 2 года назад

Revenge of The Gator, Kirby's Dreamland 2, and Mole Mania are all that's left for the mainline Nintendo stuff. Maybe Donkey Kong Land 2. Game and Watch Gallery 1 and 2? Wait! Donkey Kong 94!

@GregsGameRoom 2 года назад

Forgot about RotG. That would be a good one to colorize.

@shaky6669 2 года назад

Oh boy what timing. I just got my EZ-Flash set up and filled with games too! I'll definitely have to go down this rabbit hole. I did notice that the Konami collection for Gameboy color has some Gameboy games with color. castlevania adventure and Contra was 2 I noticed so far. Great video as always!

@GregsGameRoom 2 года назад

I was hoping they'd work on the FX Pak Pro but nope. I guess these are considered "DX" games and only work on GB Color.

@johneygd Год назад

They all do look good in color,and there’re also those donkeykong land games colorized as well.

@MinaSmol Год назад

This is what their gameplays look like on a GameBoy Color.

@jeffcox6539 2 года назад

Color is nice, but there was a charm to black and white, too. It was virtually impossible to see back in the day but there were many great games.

@GregsGameRoom 2 года назад

Agreed, Gameboy games are definitely unique!

@macuser7048 Год назад

All 3 Donkey Kong Land games are in full color now with Donkey Kong 94 in the works! Also Mega Man 1 and 5 are in full color now as well! :D Then there's Balloon Kid, Revenge of The Gator, I think most of the color hacks are by the same dude.

@MinaSmol 3 месяца назад

I want to see all the GB games that were also released for NES colorized!

@adamdenardis5438 2 года назад

Snoopy's Magic Show is pretty neat. Ooo you know what'd be sweet? Wario Blast in color!

@MinaSmol 8 месяцев назад

I believe this was all based on Link’s Awakening DX.

@chrisflaherty2225 2 года назад

We’re these the only games you had as a kid? If they were, then boy did you miss out on some classics.

@GregsGameRoom 2 года назад

My first Gameboy was the Color one you see at the beginning. So I started pretty late with it.

@emptyspotlight 9 месяцев назад

wow this is excellent wish i knew how to colorize certain games

@adamdenardis5438 2 года назад

Donkey Kong Land is in full color now. So are the Pokemon games.

@susanfit47 Год назад

They look alike in color than the old black and green/black and white. I wish all Game Boy games from 1989-1999 for the original Game Boy were in color. Plus, I had that same Game Boy game and Color/clear, but it lost about 20 years ago, since 2002.

@TampaJay 2 года назад

I had the same GB bag and color/clear as that dude.. wow! I wish I had them back! Faceball and Gallaga hack game is cool!

TMNT 2: back from the sewers would also look very nice in color

Those colorized games do put those B&W versions of it into shame.

@GregsGameRoom 2 года назад

I think so too. But it be cool if the color versions included a B&W option for purists.

@mcasias33 Год назад

If that version of super Mario land came out in the 80s it would have outsold super Mario Bros 3 on NES

@Linkz1485 2 месяца назад

Mega Man 2 & 3 are in full color. Burger Time Deluxe DX is in color. The best one of them all is Final Fantasy Adventure DX is in full color. I want the TMNT games were in color, all 3 of them.

@KesorodaBlk 2 года назад

6:50 The idea here is to wait for the platform to reach the bottom before launching Kirby, to get the highest launch possible.

@GregsGameRoom 2 года назад

Yeah, I totally botched that everytime. LOL

@CGTV100 2 года назад

Not entirely sure these are hacks because if you place non color game in a gameboy color and fiddle with the buttons on the startup screen you’ll load a color pallet for that game

@Alex_Off-Beat 2 года назад

The GBC color filters look nothing like this though, they still only have 4 colors per game, those button combos just change which 4 colors they are. These colorized hacks allow for 32 colors like a real GBC game

@Thunderbird1337 2 года назад

The Metroid II hack is unfortunately NOT working in a Gameboy Color, I've tried it with my flashcard. It only works on (some) emulators. For Mario Land 2, as others already said, there's a much better looking version. Nice video nevertheless!

@GregsGameRoom 2 года назад

Hm, interesting. Thanks for the info!

@clydefrosch 2 года назад

how hard are these to make? there's surprisingly few of them out there

@GregsGameRoom 2 года назад

These were the ones I could get to work. Sometimes it's tricky to find the correct ROM to start with. Seemed to be about 20 or so on the Romhacking website.
