Seob Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 I see them more then anything else that's avaible as an upgrade/expension for anykind of console, so there just too common. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+FujiSkunk Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 I'm kind of wishing I hadn't done that, since the Game Boy Player doesn't seem to offer black-and-white graphics for original Game Boy games. I think it might, did you try holding directional buttons and A at the GB logo? Something like that lets you swap colour pallettes. Yah. D-pad alone is one set of 4 palletes, d-pad + A is a second set, d-pad + B = 3rd set. I'm surprised I wasn't hit with an RTFM. I see it there now. Sorry. Still wouldn't mind having a Super Game Boy again, though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

figgler Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I was just thinking of how I used to have fun swapping up the colours. In Kid Icarus for instance, I would pause and tweak the colours appropriately for a dungeon, an outside level, etc so that they colours kind of 'made sense' depending on the setting / mood of the level. It was actually a lot of fun and I'll probably still do it next time I pull out the SGB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With it, I was able to note down the best color combinations I could find for every Mega Man GB game, and also a few other games like Metroid II. I had a habit of switching colors by inputing passwords between levels. If anyone's interested, here are my color passwords for the MM games. Some of them are really good, but that's just my humble opinion. -------------------------------------------- MEGA MAN: DR WILY'S REVENGE -------------------------------------------- Elec Man stage : 0411-9633-4243 Ice Man stage : 0202-0229-3243 Fire Man stage : 0792-0625-6243 Cut Man stage : 2391-5339-2243 Wily Castle : 0792-7329-4243 Wily Space Station : 0822-4032-9243 -------------------------------------------- MEGA MAN II -------------------------------------------- Metal Man stage : 0702-1528-4243 Wood Man stage : 0062-1826-3243 Air Man stage : 2422-0225-6243 Crash Man stage : 0372-0627-9243 Hard Man stage : 2421-6123-1243 Top Man stage : 2422-0219-9243 Needle Man stage : 0187-0428-6243 Magnet Man stage : 2421-2817-7243 Quint stage : 1042-0222-8243 Wily Space Station : 1041-9327-9243 -------------------------------------------- MEGA MAN III -------------------------------------------- Snake Man stage : 0791-5619-9243 Gemini Man stage : 0131-3825-8243 Shadow Man stage : 0692-1834-3243 Spark Man stage : 1111-3226-3243 Wily stage part 1 : 0182-3328-6243 Dust Man stage : 0267-0476-8243 Skull Man stage : 0791-7629-1243 Dive Man stage : 0791-5833-0243 Drill Man stage : 0691-2828-1243 Wily stage part 2 : 0182-3328-6243 Wily's Sea Base : 0182-3026-3243 -------------------------------------------- MEGA MAN IV -------------------------------------------- Toad Man stage : 0062-2028-8243 Bright Man stage : 0167-2126-3243 Pharaoh Man stage : 0792-1876-9243 Ring Man stage : 1012-1526-7243 Wily Mobile Base : 2422-2930-0243 Crystal Man stage : 0242-2032-2243 Napalm Man stage : 0692-0628-2243 Stone Man stage : 0691-9634-3243 Charge Man stage : 0102-7134-3243 Ballade stage : 2422-0232-9243 Outside Wily's ship : 2422-0232-9243 Inside Wily's ship : 2422-4034-3243 -------------------------------------------- MEGA MAN V -------------------------------------------- Mercury stage : 0792-1840-7243 Venus stage : 2421-5529-0243 Mars stage : 0042-1539-8243 Neptune stage : 2421-3834-9243 Dark Moon stage : 2422-6132-4243 Jupiter stage : 1122-7129-9243 Pluto stage : 1042-1434-4243 Uranus stage : 0242-2035-9243 Saturn stage : 1682-6134-3243 Terra stage : Use 'SGB Enhanced' mode Wily Fortress stage : Use 'SGB Enhanced' mode Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gulag picture radio Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 My problem is that I just can't seem to fins an SNES lately. I have two of them, but heck knows where they went. I actually want to run SGB with Nanoloop - the GB music program and also some Game Boy camera stuff. Guess I gotta beat the bushes at my storage space again. I'd love a SGB2 man... They are pretty much unavailable anywhere, aren't they? Though I seem to recall that one can solder an output jack to a SGB motherboard to give it link cable capability. Hmm. Just what I need - another project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jagasian Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 The SGB is great. I got one when it was released, solely for playing Link's Awakening on my big screen. There is a SGB2 for the Super Famicom, and there is supposedly a SGB2 for the SNES, though I have never seen one. Has anybody seen a USA SGB2 for the SNES? It must be quite rare. It was supposedly sold by QVC around 1996-1998. In my opinion, a SGB2 is a must own for Game Boy fans, as no other Game Boy system can play SGB-enhanced games with all of their enhanced features such as enhanced graphics, enhanced sound, borders, and even multiplayer on the same screen.

Atariboy Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 I own one, if you can do multiplayer on the same screen I've never seen it on it... Are you talking about the link port to connect with another Game Boy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LocalH Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 There are two different kinds of multiplayer possible on an SGB2. First of all, there's the link port, of course. Second, you have some games (I think there was a Bomberman game that allowed this) that could support multiple players through controller port 2 - these would also work on a regular SGB1. I don't know if there was a GB game that allowed the use of a multitap, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
