Good timing lol I've been replaying game boy zelda games on the 3DS after discovering that game boy and game boy color games can be played in 3D on 3DS consoles by simultaneously pressing both the select button and the A button and holding them until the Nintendo 3DS logo dissappears upon initial load. Have fun y'all!

@lazyshinobi2861 Месяц назад

I forgot how cool the 3ds was. Honestly even the form factor is goated.

@firzaprama7 Месяц назад

For real? I didn't know if this was a thing in 3DS. I'm gonna try it. EDIT: It totally works! More reason for me to continue Link Awakening DX. I've not playing that game for months.

@batmabel Месяц назад

@@firzaprama7 Not only it works, but the on-screen game boy changes depending if you're playing a GBC or DMG GB game! And the 3D effect adds the space between the screen and the glass. It's such a cool detail.

@firzaprama7 Месяц назад

@@batmabel yeah, I already know about onscreen gameboy thing, but not the 3d effect that is also working.

@ChaossX77 Месяц назад

One of my favorite things was how you kept the title of the game on the screen the entire time and you got rid of it. 😢

@neetpride5919 Месяц назад

It's cause he knows we just click through to see the names of the games which reduces the watch hours he gets. Same reason he doesn't utilize chapters or really put any useful info about the video's content in the description

@Busyshark92 19 дней назад

Agreed. That should be a staple.

@IronMan3582 Месяц назад

I remember saving up my money for Power Quest and in secret when I was supposed to be at the Reston Library doing research for some project I couldn't care less about for school, I ran over to the Best Buy a block away and bought it, ran like hell back to the library with the game tucked away in my cargo pocket and was picked up by my father a couple hours later at predetermined time That was agony waiting till I got home to play it, but man it was so worth it. I know Pokemon was a global force by then, but the concept of a fighter-RPG that had a dedicated PvP mode...that was brilliant

@EuSouRCS Месяц назад

There are two Tomb Raider games on GBC and both are Masterpieces BTW.

@missingnovgc Месяц назад

I just found Azure Dreams the other day at a garage sale for $2. I had never heard of the game until then. I absolutely love it

@thatvideogamesshow Месяц назад

That's a great find for that price!

@Christian-rn1ur Месяц назад

Wahey, Power Quest made it in! Genuinely great little fighter that even the most hardcore fighting game fans can enjpy. Best thing about the game is it's Super Gameboy compatible and supports multiple controllers.

@Ayasedere Месяц назад

Always a pleasure to watch your videos and discover games that I never heard of!

@NickOchoa Месяц назад

i would play the 1st game you showcased and the shooting demon game. Thanks for the vid!

@GameCubeGalaxy Месяц назад

Whoa, there was a Beast Wars game for the GBC?! How did I miss that?? Definitely nabbing that to play, as it looks like a solid fighter for the GBC. Also, glad to see Power Quest getting a shoutout. Such a unique, underrated game! The GBC was always one of my favorite consoles, and learning about more games for it is a treat. Another excellent video here man!

@thatvideogamesshow Месяц назад

It's a really good fighter man! Well worth tracking down =) Glad you found some new games you haven't heard of man, keep up the great work with your channel mate!

@VERSI0N43 Месяц назад

Two of my favorite GBC games that no one talks about are: Daiku no Gen-san: Kachikachi no Tonkachi ga Kachi (Carpenter Gen) and then Samurai Kid Both are awesome puzzle platformers.

@thatvideogamesshow Месяц назад

Going to have to give these ones a go!

@robertbarker5802 Месяц назад

Oh man I loved Blaster Master on the NES and had no idea there was a GBC port. I would have ate that up.

Not a port, something in between of a remix and a new game. You should really give it a try.

Wendy Every Witch Way is also one of very few GB games that make use of the GBA for extra processing power (somehow, dunno, look it up), so there's an additional part of the game that can only be played on a GBA. Nice to know that the developers wanted to go the extra mile by adding something like this.

@RJV-s3l Месяц назад

I fancy myself a GB/GBC enthusiast, and how haven’t I heard of most of these!? BRB gonna go play Azure Dreams!

@PikaLink91 Месяц назад

Great with some GameBoy Color love! I jumped directly from GB to GBA, but it definitely had some gems. My personal recommendation (as a huge Tintin fan), is Tintin in Tibet. It's a great platformer with a lot of variety in its gameplay and a fantastic chiptune soundtrack.

@thatvideogamesshow Месяц назад

@kolpik3708 27 дней назад

Wow, I've never before seen anyone mention Azure Dreams for the Gameboy. Sure, it lacks some of the "charm" of the PS1 version, but with so many more levels and loads more potential hours of game play in one playthrough, it really is a monstrous adventure.

@withoutthejuice7193 Месяц назад

The single greatest channel for filling up emulators

@MattiaSangiorgi Месяц назад

I didn't notice any mention of it, but Wendy: Every Witch Way has GBA-exclusive levels. It's been a while since I've played it, but you should be able to unlock that extra content by playing it in a GBA emulator, or even meddling with the settings of a GBC emulator.

@theguybrarian Месяц назад

holy crap i found the only other person who played quest on the gbc. i loved it.

@thatvideogamesshow Месяц назад

@fingrati Месяц назад

I loved "getting good" with Mr. Driller, but I do regret the developer's decision not to include a save battery because all of your progress and accumulated points are deleted as soon as you turn off the console. Oh well, it's still a hidden gem.

Crystalis was originally for nes and then gbc. Owned the gbc version when I was a kid, wish they made a remake on 3ds, or now on the switch. Great game, it's very basic compared to today's standards but it was an enjoyable hack n slash title.

@GeovaneSanciniSR Месяц назад

Honestly, the GBC version of Crystalis changed the music from the original NES, and it was a turnoff for me. (The OG was my introduction to the RPG genre)

Emulation‽ I thought you as a video game collector would be against that! Edit: I'm not against it, in fact, that's how I play most games. It's just that I've seen video game collectors on RU-vid/Reddit always imply eek emulation or if you emulate it you didn't play the game and that's just stupid

@NueThunderKing Месяц назад

There is nothing wrong in emulation, not everyone can access this gems in their original format and that doesn’t mean they should miss them.

@leviskata Месяц назад

why would anyone in their right mind be against emulation.... u can literally emulate every single handheld now just on ur phone using emulators and u can even use shaders to make it look just like the original.

@thatvideogamesshow Месяц назад

I think emulation is a vital part of gaming culture as a whole. Many games never get the chance to be widely available or are far out of people’s price range. As a result emulation is the only option for many people to experience them and the more people that can play games, I’m all for it.

@Outrack Месяц назад

Being against emulation for 20-year-old games is legitimate gatekeeping, even if you picked up copies off eBay none of the cash traded would get back to the original developers.
