Oh and I'm pretty sure that someone (read: everyone) still plays GB/C games out there.

Uh, (raises hand) I play GBC. I was just playing Earthworm Jim yesterday on it. As well as gamegear.

Hm.

Maybe they're clearing all of their stores out of Game Boy Color games, and this is a great chance to go pick up some of the ones you may have missed?

I'm looking for a GBC right now actually, playing them on my GBA isn't the same.

Seriously man, this is a community full of gamers who love their past.

wow man...phail covers this topic. why? Lets count:

1. You stated the oh so obvious "Gamestop wants money" ordeal

2. People don't play GBC/GBA games anymore? really? I find that hard to believe. Then I must be playing my DS Rivera on my 2 screen PSP

3. Yes....you do suck with URLs. or they just don't like you for stating the obvious and thinking no one plays GBC/GBA games anymore.

now...GO. FIX IT.

My DS has a Rhythm Tengoku slot on the bottom. I think other GBA games can theoretically go in there, but that's just silly.

LOL @ robo-sarcasm and Blanka scratching his OWCH.

Video games are never about the past... ever... no one plays old shit... ever...

I've been playing SF3 3rd Strike all week and haven't played my 360 at all... but... shame on those people who want to play GBA games.

I totally missed GameBoy color. never played one. i had the original brick GameBoy, but that's it.

I think after i stopped needing something to occupy my time during trips i stopped being interested in handhelds.

There's nothing wrong with the GBC. I was playing DQ1+2 a little bit just the other day to warm up again for DQIV DS. I'll play anything as long as it's fun. That said, I was using a GBPlayer on my GC to play them, but that's besides the point.
