21:54 Since Final Fight Revenge is a port of the Sega ST-V arcade game and the arcade game ran directly off a ROM cartridge, I will speculate that the 4MB RAM cartridge requirement is so Capcom didn't have to spend time optimizing data loading from CD to the Saturn's relatively tiny amount of RAM by just loading the majority of the game's asset to the 4MB RAM cartridge and get the game out fast before the Saturn died in Japan. It's basically the same reason why Donkey Kong 64 also needed the 4MB RAM cart; it's a crutch to get the game out quick.

Not sure that Pokemon Yellow can count as the last Game Boy game released in some regions, since Gold & Silver are also GB compatible. The box art says they're GBC, but any GBC cart that is shaped like a plain GB cart is how you can tell if it's backwards compatible.
@ABlackFalcon2 жыл бұрын
In the video he mentions the last Japanese release that is backwards compatible with the original Game Boy -- the One Piece game from 2002 -- but not the last US release, Dragon Warrior Monsters II in Sept. '01. I agree about counting backwards compatible titles towards both the GB and GBC libraries.
@3dmarth2 жыл бұрын
Pokémon Yellow was branded as a Game Boy game, and as far as I know, it really is strictly an original Game Boy game, just enhanced with a special Super Game Boy colour palette that also works on GBC. Most other non-grey cartridges are a bit of a grey area, though. ;) For one, they usually (always?) come with Game Boy Color branding, despite working on the original GB. Typically, the carts boot two different versions of the game for the two different platforms. They may look the same on the surface (Wario Land 2) or not (Conker's Pocket Tales), but either way, they're different enough that the save files aren't even cross-compatible. But then you've got games like Pokémon Gold and Silver, which are also branded as GBC titles, and even come in full colour... but still run on an original GB engine, IIRC. However, the fact remains that they have a full-blown GBC colour palette, so they are true GBC games.
@mr.vidjagamez98962 жыл бұрын
@@3dmarth I could be wrong, but I feel like I read somewhere that while the Japanese release is indeed an original GB game, the international releases of Yellow are "technically" Color/GB hybrids like the black carts since they added some enhancement features when played on a GBC for those releases.
@remvaizor35222 жыл бұрын
@@3dmarth I think the most simple way to decide whether to count the game as GB or GBC title is the boot screen on color-equipped systems. If you can change the color palette when the Nintendo logo shows up, it's a GB game. If you can't, it's a GBC game. That's why I don't count dual compatibility games as GB titles. Even though they work on GB, they were primarily meant to be played on a GBC with colors. But of course in the end, none of this really matters, but when collecting it's nice to make some kind of separation between these two platforms.
@TVsMrNeil2 жыл бұрын
@@3dmarth "as I know, it really is strictly an original Game Boy game, just enhanced with a special Super Game Boy colour palette that also works on GBC." Nope! Gameboy Color absolutely cannot launch in Super Gameboy mode. That's not a thing that happens. Pokemon Yellow's GBC mode is *mostly* based on the SGB palette, but it remains a completely separate mode. They're not even identical. There are some minor differences between the game running on GBC and SGB. Pay close attention to surfing Pikachu in the attract mode.

"I liked it more than I thought I would" is legitimately some of the most glowing praise I could expect from an individual who gets more pedantic about interlaced images then of the content of the media unto which they consume. I've attempted to wear many hats over the years; artist, level designer, photagrapher, streamer... heck, there was a point where I was planning to do long-form let's play with post-recording commentary, but I got cold feet. I feel like if I did youtube today, it'd be in the sort of realm of long-form video essays, waxing poetic on games in a style not to dissimilar to how Jeremy Parish might go about covering a game. even with lack of familiarity with the sort of game others see as a classic, I would at least try and treat it with the level of gravitas that those who were molded by that game's place in the whole of history deserves while chiding misgivings I may or may not have with the game's formula given the odd years out from it's initial debut. the fact that a director's cut of the game that single-handedly rejuvinated the game boy and shaped the lives of millions of people across the globe young and old probably deserves that sort of preamble. Pokemon's original outings brought people together, and the Yellow version brought together that bridge between people who obsessed over the Anime and those who favored the games, further strengthening bonds that for some have been life-long. Pokemon can be faulted for being a game that is held together by duct tape and dreams given how many horrible bugs plague it, that the quality-of-life refinements of their formula over 25 years makes the raw game boy games both show their age and also hold up surprisingly well at the same time, that the franchise has never really had a knack for anything even remotely resembling profound story telling... what it IS is a JRPG with a hell of an aesthetic, a suikoden-sized playable roster of characters, a combat system that is baby simple to understand but has people competing under the Red/Blue/Yellow rulesets to this day, and a sense of replay value that is seemingly bottomless. To the gamer in need of accessibility, the likes of pokemon Yellow can be their forever game, that one title they could be trapped on a desert island with a stockpile of AA Batteries/Cartridge batteries, and solder and keep themselves entertained for ages by just challenging themselves to try out Pokemon they maybe weren't familiar with in this particular playthrough. "I liked it more than I thought I would" sums it up pretty nicely, though. probably would sum up my thoughts on... literally any Falcom game if it got set in front of me and I had to come to grips with the walking into stuff combat.

Regarding the last Game Boy game, at least for North America: it is really hard to say what the last OG Game Boy game really was, as there were a lot of Game Boy Color games that were compatible with the old black and white models. Pokémon Gold and Silver, for example, were backward compatible and they came out a year after Pokémon Yellow. Yellow itself had some compatibility with GBC as well: the color pallet would change if you went into a new town, something that the original Red and Blue would not do. This is part of the reason why I find it hard to call the GBC a separate handheld to the OG Game Boy.

I love the ATB system. I don't think of it as having to wait, but as having a visual and visceral element of time.

Really surprised that the Gameboy colour didn't get any games after 2002

5:55 you muffed up . Pokemon gold and silver are playable for the game boy as well and they were released in 2000.

I think those were technically game boy color games though. Yellow was specifically Gameboy.

It is so crazy to me that the Game Gear still had games being released 5 years after the Mega CD died!

Technically Pokémon yellow is a gameboy color game. The final release on gameboy was Beavis and butthead in March 1999.

Chu Chu Rocket was a *launch title* on the GBA. Interesting to see it in a compilation as a final game as well.

Fun fact: The Samurai Deeper Kyo game was released in the states exclusively as a bonus bundled with the DVD box set for the anime it was based on.

Cant recall if it was exactly during 2001 or a few years after, but I definitely bought Super Battletank new on the GameGear since I got it when the retail chain Ames was closing all their stores and they were the only place I knew of that carried the Majesco "Core System" GameGear and old/re-released games for it, Battletank being one of the titles.

If you count GBC games with Game Boy compatibility then you'd have to go way further in Europe and North America, with "Ronaldo V-Football" from June 1st, 2001 being the final "dual mode" game released in Europe, and the two "Dragon Warrior Monsters 2" being the final game in North America on September 15th, 2001.
