    I’m impressed they’re sticking with cartridges, since that has been a source of issues with some games. I appreciate it myself. I like them.

    This guy is kind of silly for saying that this has been the only time there have been games that fit into the old system, since you could totally put Gameboy Color games into the Gameboy Pocket, they just wouldn’t work. They’d scold you and be like “This game can only be played on the GameBoy Color!”.

    I hope there’s no forward compatibility, where games must target the lower spec hardware, since that’s the same thing holding the Xbox Series X/S, I hope there’s backwards compatibility though, it’d be nice to tuck my old Switch into storage.

      Huh, I was not aware some GC Color games would do that. Never had one, always thought of the Color as the first Pro model rather than its own generation.
