I like the simplicity of Game Boy games; I like the mystery of working out the controls when I get loose carts since
it reminds me of the good ol' Commodore 64 days of getting random games I'd never heard of before on discs and having
to work out the details myself; I like the music and graphics (no, really) and I like the artwork on the cart labels.
I like the tactile sensations of flipping through a pile of carts, picking one, pushing it into a console and having
a good time, rather than just picking a file from an emulator dialog box. I also like the thrill of lowballing random
carts on ebay and getting ridiculous bargains, like 99c for a Gameboy Camera.
I also like talking pointless bullshit, as you can tell from the last paragraph. |
IndexGB means original Game Boy (ie the grey carts), GBC means Game Boy Colour (ie the black carts), GBH means hybrid GB/GBC and GBA means Game Boy Advance. I won't differentiate for Game Boy carts with SGB support, as I'm lazy and that might be helpful. Who knows, maybe I will, read the reviews, if I ever write them.
