@Brettski89 iirc, that wasn't the only/most stupid thing Jon Jafari said during that interview or in the time since. Now while that isn't anywhere near as bad as soliciting compromising photos from fans (some of them under the age of consent) under false pretences for the actual purpose of mocking them, it's important not to be an apologist for any kind of bad behaviour.
I remember seeing those stamps as a kid and wondering what kinda Japanese characters they were. then Pokemon happened, and I was like "i know this creature!"
The greatest addition in the gameboy color was actually an DMA unit. On the original gameboy, to copy data around, you had to use the CPU and that was painfully slow way to do it, being around 30KB/s, give or take. But on the GBC, you could copy stuff at 8MB/s, which allowed all those fancy things such as playing videos, games hitting the 60 FPS target a lot more often (but this one is also due the much better screen and improved battery life, as devs would use 30FPS or less to save on battery on the original GB), streamed audio..
Pokemon G/S are actually regular Game Boy games, they just have enhancements when played on GBC. Most of these GBC enhanced games are on black carts, and Japanese G/S actually are on black carts, but the international releases got an exemption from the color scheme because this was the heyday of Pokemania. Crystal is a GBC game through and through, though. You can trick it into running on a GB, but the results are... not pretty.
EVERY time I've seen/heard a reference to Gunpei Yokoi, it's always that picture of him with his palms toward the camera and his fingers spread, as though he's explaining something rather compelling. There must not exist many public pictures of him.
I had this weird dream last night where there was a whole spin-off series specifically about talking Pokemon teaming up to go on missions in randomly generated dungeons! Now that Detective Pikachu has finally introduced a Pokemon that speaks human language for the first time, maybe Nintendo will have the the confidence to make a real game like that.
Factcheck: The Game Boy Light was NOT backlit and neither was the original model Game Boy Advance SP. They had a front-light instead. The actual first Nintendo Handheld to be backlit was the Nintendo DS.
Did you know? The main theme song of the infamous Phillips CD-I game Hotel Mario is actually taken from the theme song of the 1933 film “Little Women”. I’m dead serious.
1:36 -- wait, if this gameboy orbited the Earth 3,000 times, doesn't this mean that technically this particular gameboy is almost ten years older than what it physically is?
adventureoflinkmk2 isn’t your human created time based age of earth based on orbit of the sun not times moving around the earth? Otherwise if I flew on on plane around the earth, you’re telling me I’d be older? Which isn’t true. But what could be a more true statement is how the closer you are to a gravitational center, the Earth in our case, universal time moves faster. So you could techimically state that because the game was far away for long enough, it’s time moved slightly slower than on the earth, so it is actually younger.
Wait, what? I'm pretty certain that there were anime episodes dedicated to the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games that featured talking Pokemon long before Detective Pikachu... right? I'm not hallucinating this?
You are correct, along with mewoth. Though it's not the first time dykg got something wrong. They also said in the video the Gulf war game boy was no longer on display when it still is
@@backlogbuddies I couldn't tell you why, but I interpreted "wanted Pokemon to talk" literally. As in, not a single Pokemon speaking, but two Pokemon talking to each other, which is why I used the Mystery Dungeon example.
Small correction to the episode: the Game Boy Color only launched in purple and transparent purple. The other colors didn't come along until several months later
Did you know? The default color palette used when playing DMG games on a Gameboy Color/Advance was chosen to make Metroid 2 match the first Metroid. This was to honor Gunpei Yokoi, not only for his work on the Gameboy, but also for his work on both Metroid games. A fact that is often missed in these videos.
I love that you credited Miyamoto as "Creative Fellow, Nintendo." That's the kind of subtle charm and personality I think works best for this channel, as opposed to DYKG Extra's more overt silliness.
Hold up!!! Are we going to ignore the fact that Mario, Goku, Krillin, Buster Bunny, and Yoshi are in white suits singing together in sync in one of commercials shown. 4:41
Playing Game Boy in space. Those are some vibes right there. Just imagine, you're flying a ship, you're in the cockpit, leaned back, chilling. Nothing important going on so you're just kinda drifting around waiting for something to happen. You pull out your Game Boy and start playing some Zelda. Mannnnnnnnnnn.
I would've liked more info on the Game Boy Camera as I feel there's a lot of interesting things to talk about with that game...like what's up with those HORRIFYING pictures, and maybe talk a little about Space Fever II and its unique history with Nintendo. Maybe revisit this idea in the future?
You know, I had an idea for a Game Boy Classic Edition, and I think this Gameboy Classic Edition should have these features: -Have the same saving features as the NES Classic Edition -Have a backlit screen while still having the games in black-&-white with green coloring that the console is known for -Have the model be shaped after the Gameboy Pocket with all different kinds of colors (or get a special original model Gameboy version which costs more, but is a great collectors item) -Have wireless connectivity to other Gameboys for multiplayer & digital TVs to play the games on it with added color like it's a Super Gameboy -Have a rechargeable battery that can charge through a USB cable and these would be the games: 1. Tetris 2. Dr. Mario 3. Super Mario Land 4. Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins 5. Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 6. Pokemon Red/Blue (you will get one of these randomly) 7. Mario's Picross 8.

I see lots of comments about this being a remade video, but honestly I enjoyed this very much! 😊 Never would have found the old one, and this was really interesting
1990. In a K-mart in Troy Michigan. My grand mother bought me a GameBoy to help me overcome my fear of heights for a flight home the following day. I ran those batteries bone dry and the second set half dead. Tetris came with the console and I played it until my fingers hurt. Barely noticed being on the plane.
I wish that the 3DS could have and GBA games in the shop and had the ability to have games presented in GBA mode since you can't get the GBA shops in the 3DS.
Gameboy Advance was technically not the same project as Atlantis, they entirely scrapped Atlantis and the GBA was its own separate new project. Was really hoping that would be brought up but it wasn't...
Did anyone notice the GameBoy showed in the beginning of the video (0:05) looked different than the usual GameBoy? The logo is off, saying just "GameBoy" while the Nintendo logo is at the bottom left.
i got to see that Singer sewing machine in person at the Nation VideoGame Museum. that place was really rad. they even had what i assume to be a the complete N64 DD collection, i think all 9 DD games, the Disk Drive itself, even the Radnet equipment.
A bit contractory to say that the Color was a modest upgrade and say it was twice as powerful right after. While it didn't get as popular as the Advance it was most definitely a whole new system.
Well, as some people points out this was simple lifted most of the info from the old one. There were some misinfomation here that I noticed. - The Game Boy Light didn't had backlit screen, but frontlit instead. Same with the first release of the GBA SP actually. It didn't had backlit screen either until the later release, modeled AGS-101 that had a backlit screen. (Nintendo even labeled this feature on the box) - We have no concrete evidence that the dancing man cameo on the Game Boy Camera is Shigeru Miyamoto. That's just guessing at that part.
Did you know? Nintendo's handhelds have always used low-resolution screens, with GB, GBC and GBA using 144p, and DS/DSi/3DS using 240p. PSP and Vita used 480p and 576p (Vita had OLED screen too).
GBA SP was front lit for most of its life. Only at the end of its run did they release a "new and brighter" model with a backlit screen, before discontinuing it
Awesome video! I love the video footage of the two kids playing Tetris at 0:48 and 1:05. what video was that originally pulled from? Where can I find that footage? Does anybody know?
Often overlooked fact, some games were made coded to be in full color on the Super Gameboy instead of a 4 shade palette and had custom borders. (Pokemon Red/Blue is one)

"The *COLOR* in the GBC logo represents the five original GBC colors"

You know, I had an idea for a Game Boy Classic Edition, and I think this Gameboy Classic Edition should have these features:
-Have the same saving features as the NES Classic Edition
-Have a backlit screen while still having the games in black-&-white with green coloring that the console is known for
-Have the model be shaped after the Gameboy Pocket with all different kinds of colors (or get a special original model Gameboy version which costs more, but is a great collectors item)
-Have wireless connectivity to other Gameboys for multiplayer & digital TVs to play the games on it with added color like it's a Super Gameboy

Project Atlantis did not become the Gameboy Advance they were two separate handhelds. Project Atlantis was canceled and was replaced by the GBA.
A bit contractory to say that the Color was a modest upgrade and say it was twice as powerful right after. While it didn't get as popular as the Advance it was most definitely a whole new system.
I never thought id see Mario, Goku, Krillin, Buster Bunny and Yoshi all in the same line like that.
1:52 TH-cam is gonna demonetize the video
Well, as some people points out this was simple lifted most of the info from the old one. There were some misinfomation here that I noticed.
- The Game Boy Light didn't had backlit screen, but frontlit instead. Same with the first release of the GBA SP actually. It didn't had backlit screen either until the later release, modeled AGS-101 that had a backlit screen. (Nintendo even labeled this feature on the box)
- We have no concrete evidence that the dancing man cameo on the Game Boy Camera is Shigeru Miyamoto. That's just guessing at that part.
Did you know? Nintendo's handhelds have always used low-resolution screens, with GB, GBC and GBA using 144p, and DS/DSi/3DS using 240p. PSP and Vita used 480p and 576p (Vita had OLED screen too).
GBA SP was front lit for most of its life. Only at the end of its run did they release a "new and brighter" model with a backlit screen, before discontinuing it
Awesome video! I love the video footage of the two kids playing Tetris at 0:48 and 1:05. what video was that originally pulled from? Where can I find that footage? Does anybody know?
Often overlooked fact, some games were made coded to be in full color on the Super Gameboy instead of a 4 shade palette and had custom borders. (Pokemon Red/Blue is one)
i actually have a copy of Shantae. Its nice to see it isn't as forgotten anymore
The Link's Awakening music at the end made me unusually sentimental
