Gameboy General /gg/

Let's get a Gameboy general going, shall we?
This is a thread for everything Gameboy: GB, GBC, and GBA.
What are you playing on your Gameboy at the moment?
What are your favourite Gameboy games?\
Have you ever made any modifications to a Gameboy or have a modded Gameboy?

I just beat kirby's dream land 2 last night was really fun and surprisingly challenging for a kirby game. Not sure what I'll play next. I have an everdrive though so the world is mine.
>What are your favourite Gameboy games?
mario land 2 and pokemon the ones I go back to the most. Spanky's quest is my fav. lesser known title. And game & watch gallery 2 the most nostalgic.
>Have you ever made any modifications to a Gameboy or have a modded Gameboy?
I've never modded myself but I own an ags 101 modded original GBA. I also recently ordered a mcwill modded atomic purple GBC that I'm patiently waiting for, pic related/

most emulators have input lag and sound inaccuracies, especially portable emulators. You sound like one of those "I didn't notice any differences so it's perfect emulation" types. It's hard to notice yes, just like the poor pixel response on sp 101 is not something most people notice or care about

It never used to bother me either, I've had the thing for over 2 years and it was only when I got more into /vr/ that I started noticing these smaller details

Meant to say exhausted, but apparently it was breddy thirsdy as well, it slurped up a drop of honey the size of it's own head before buzzing away.

Here's a shot from my cellphone for comparison. Bees have a weird drinking apparatus. Their proboscis splits open to reveal a tongue with tiny, expanding bristles, which help increase the surface area and easy drinking. Made a video with my cellphone where part of the process is visible, but it's too big to upload.

Step 1: have a bee land on your windowsill on a hot late summer day
Step 2: bee is exhausted and just wants to chill for a moment
Step 3: offer drop of honey to bee; bee sits still for a couple of minutes drinking it
Step 4: point cellphone at bee and take a picture

Not that much effort really, just got lucky. Not a beekeeper (though I'd get a hive if I ever owned property because bees is cool folks to be around). Also not a researcher, just generally curious about nature. I read up on wikipedia and checked some research papers about the proboscis because I wondered how it worked.

Nice shot, very atmospheric.

>>7193790
Yeah, exactly. The bee gif wouldn't have been possible without the macro lens. I've thought about modding for "proper" lenses too, but I couldn't be bothered. I don't take a lot of pictures lately, and they're fine for what they are, even with the problems associated with the magnetic lenses (focus plane etc).

If you remove the outer white plastic ring around the lens, you'll find there's a planar surface underneath, which might make attaching anything properly somewhat easier.

Nah, I've had a few AGS-001s and they've all been the same, it's not clip-on light tier but it's still inferior to VC on N3ds or emu on Vita
If ever we get to the point where replacement backlit screens have the same pixel response time I'll probably just buy a cheap GBA and swap it in, but as far as I can tell nowadays you get either ghosting worse than a 101 or artifacting that wasn't present on the original

He didn't train his hands and forearms. The "let" can be used for having small/weak muscles/tendons/joints, at least in /fit/ speak. That's what causes cramps, along with low potassium.

>I've never seen a 101 in person, but I've heard it's noticeable.

Oh it's noticeable. The 001 has a really significant tint due to the front light whereas the 101 has more accurate colours.

The only reason I use a 001 myself is because my 101 is broken and doesn't play sound through its speaker, I definitely wish that weren't the case. And before you ask the screens aren't swappable, I tried.

Already tried swapping out what I could, the speaker from the 101 actually still works when I put it into my 001.

>that ghosting in the same line as Mario
Why do you all keep using these shitty aftermarket screens?

[Anonymous No.7204278]

>>7204205
There's no way you can judge that display from a 31kb JPEG.

>>7204205
you're not the brightest, it's an extremely low res picture, so none of those artifacts are actually there.

[Anonymous No.7204320]

>>7204205
Yeah wtf, he's also using an aftermarket table look at those artifacts

This game is excellent. One of my favorite games on the Gameboy.

the only thing I hate is that those screens are smaller.
is there a place (with international shipping) where they sell modded gbc's with the newer normal size screens?

Is there anywhere I can buy a replacement battery cover for this one? The tab snapped off of it and none of the ones I can find are silver.

same guy on etsy called gamechangermods has the fullsize ips versions too. There's pros and cons between both screen types. But honestly the smaller mcwill size is not that bad, while playing you don't really notice it's smaller than the original/

Lay off the weed. The buttons on the stock GBC are the same.

Is there any way for me to easily identify fake cartridges on ebay?

Of course not. Silly baby.

I bought a backlit dmg from 8bitaestethics (through his own website, not etsy. still hasn't arrived since he seems to take quite some time, even before factoring in shipping) and all the pics show the small screen.
I almost bought from gamechangermods but etsy suspended my account by error just because it was new I guess. they supposedly lifted the suspension so I'll check him out again.

usually the color of the labels are slightly off for fakes. On ebay you're always protected as a buyer though, if you get a fake that is listed as genuine, you'll get your money back

how do you all feel about rechargeable battery mods? i bought a gba with a backlit screen and a recharge mod and i kinda regret not going with the original battery pak. works great but something about it makes me ... apprehensive.

I was so addicted to Pokémon Silver that I played it even in high school while others were having sex...

Zelda DX is great. Also loved King of Fighters heat of battle or whatever (with Geese Howard). It's surprisingly well made for a Gameboy fighter.

Mario DX was also fun despite the small screen.


The Kirby and Mario lands are fantastic and still playable IMO.

What I hated are the Mega Mans (maybe except V) and the Mortal Kombats on Gameboy. Terrible unplayable messes.

Forgot one more game.

Ninja Gaiden Shadow has awesome music and is a lot more forgiving than the NES games. I like it more than the Nes ones.

[Anonymous No.7206079]

I started playing this on my Vita the other day. It's actually pretty awesome for a GBC point-n-click.

Once I beat these two I'm gonna go for Shadowgate Classic afterwards. It's been so long since I've played a fun point-n-click.

This is really cool. Thanks for the recommendation anon, I've been on /vr/ for years and never heard of it before

[Anonymous No.7207048]

whats the best gbc rpg that isn't a port or remake?

my favorite is dragon warrior monsters.

In terms of content it's probably unironically Pokemon Crystal. My friends liked MagiNation was I was a kid, but I never got into it. I like both of the Revelations / Last Bible games as well. They're very simple but fun.

Use a styrofoam cooler, aluminum foil, and a strip of UV LEDs.
>line cooler with foil
>run led strip around the inside
>suspend shell inside with fishing line or place on a clear drinking glass
Constant, direct exposure and more potent than sunlight all in a ~$25 setup.
If you have an extra $10 to spend, you can even use a small electric turn table inside.
