Classic Game Room - GAME BOY COLOR console review

Classic Game Room reviews the NINTENDO GAME BOY COLOR handheld game system released in 1998! As the name suggests, the Game Boy Color is a Game Boy that delivers color. This model is similar in size to the Game Boy pocket and lacks a backlit screen, but it does have a massive game library filled with must-play games. Comes in a variety of colors too! CGR GameBoy Color video review features Nintendo Game Boy Color video game footage like Super Mario Bros. Deluxe!

That's not pink it's ATOMIC PURPLE, quite possibly the most rad color of all time!

The GBC is one of my favorite systems for not only nostalgia but durability. My poor poor purple GBC survived pokemania, being dropped, carted to many many doctor appointments and hospital stays, it was washed twice and dropped I don't know how many times, it still works and plays beautifully. It's my GB of choice if I don't have an outlet near by.

I've been collecting gameboy so much this year! Someone actually made me a custom legend of Zelda gameboy, going to have to review it on my channel this week and show it's art off.

It's not "Pink", it's "Atomic Purple".

I remember when I had a gameboy color. Back then, we were satisfied with 8-bit games with color which were portable. Nowadays people even whine about IOS or Android games that are not displayed in HD. Damn I sound old for a twenty-something.

The end of this video is PRICELESS. I mean... I loved the review and all, but the ending? Oh, man. Amazing. Tiger Assault!

[crttsome]

I like how he actually showed the screen without the using the gamecube.

[Mars-K]

That ending was possibly the best finisher to a review I've ever seen!

[GrievousDu]

On game boy games, you can even choose the colour by pressing on the D-pad or coming back in black and white by pressing on B and the D-pad at the same time. It's also works on game boy advance. You can only do it when it's just been turned on.

There were certain original GameBoy games that by default had their own, completely unique color schemes. One such instance was Super Mario Land. If you play it on the Gameboy Color and don't change the color scheme at the boot up screen, then by default, it's going to have a very diverse pallet which was something most other Gameboy games did not offer.

God dang Nintendo always releasing new handhelds and making old ones obsolete. Now I have to get rid of my game boy and get a gameboy color

Finally the long the awaited review of the GBC

[GrnArrow]

I think you might need your eyes examined, Mark.  That Gameboy Color is not pink.  It's purple.  The transparent plastic seems to be throwing you off.

Your video game reviews are the best. I like how you add humor to the show. All the oldschool games bring back so many memories. I can’t stop watching your videos. Keep up the great 👍 job.

[MuffinsASMR]

I have been waiting so long for this review :') yay!

[chrisjoy]

“You can hit people with this.” Lol love it😂

[mattmaverick]

Still have mine and still play it as well as my game gear to this day! Game Boy Color was great cause the batteries lasted very very long

[LEGODino]

When you put in Donkey Kong Country and played it, soooo many memories rushed back into my head. The gameplay, the music, it was awesome

[jaide]

You would think over 10 years of improvement would mean mobile gaming would be better than this, but its not.

Gameboy color > smartphone

I had a atomic purple game boy color when they were new. I spent so much money on games and loved every minute of it.

I had 1942, bionic commando, dragons lair, dragon warrior 1 and 2, mega man Xtreme, perfect dark, WWF wrestlemania 2000, street fighter alpha, donkey Kong country, super Mario bros deluxe.

It kept me company on bus rides and waiting for appointments and my friends loved paying on it too.
