Holy shit! Merry Christmas to me! I just played through MM4 on GB. I've heard some people say 4 is better, but I haven't ever played through 5 completely. I was actually saying that I wished this would come out because my luck I'd play it and then the hack would release after.

I really enjoyed the fuck out of 4 though. I played it in bursts over a couple weeks at work, etc. It felt like it had that sweetspot in difficulty where it was challenging on a first playthrough but not so brutal that it made me want to stop. The Wily stage and bosses were pretty creative too.

>uses GBC double speed mode to remove slowdowns.
Actually awesome, the original game was mired in those. Only thing that could make me happier is an SRAM hack.

Looks like nice work. Most colorizations are slapdash

The Japanese box art doesn't have the Super Game Boy enhanced logo on it. No GameBoy Color game (as far as I know) had Super GameBoy support.

Ok, are you talking about the US ver of the cover art here, because the 1 your reply from doesn't already have it.

I'll fix it if I can get a high clean quality image of the MMV US artwork alone.

I think it looks really fucking nice.
I've been comparing it as I go to the original palettes and MM8BDM's versions, and I find the DX palettes really nice. MM8BDM's were designed with NES palette limitations in mind, so it makes sense it's not as good I guess.

From the 2 roms I could find online, both would patch successfully. In the README found in this DX patch, it says....

Thanks for the list. The only GBC compatible games that support the GBC are the black cartridge games. The Black GBC cartridge games do contain dual ROM's, one for GBC and the other for classic GameBoy. But none of the transparent GBC games support the Super GameBoy. I know, because I use to own a large handful of GBC games as well as a Super GameBoy and I did try it myself.

He could take on Mega Man X, right?

>> No.9522010

>>9522005
He'd put up a good fight, but X would win.
Now that I think of it, MMV GB's robot masters are more like reploids, and they're clearly more powerful than all of the previous robot masters.
If they ever bridge the gap between Classic and X, it should be with a remake or follow up of MMV GB.
