I am. But the only game I'm playing right now is Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages. Surprisingly, even though it wasn't made by Nintendo, it's still an awesome game. The GBC isn't nearly as awesome as the GBA due to sheer number of great games alone. Other GBC games I've played are Metal Gear Solid: an alternate story regarding the first entry in the series. Snake finds himself having to break into an African territory in order to stop a madman from accomplishing his objectives. Is it good? YES. Plays almost as good as the PSone original (And the GCN remake). Definitely worth your money. Resident Evil Gaiden: Before Resident Evil Deadly Silence shambled onto the DS, this was the only RE option for gamers on the go. The game featured (literally) hit-or-miss battles, irritating music, and a story that revolved around Barry (From the first game) rescuing survivors from a ship crawling with zombies. Is it any good? No. It's rather lackluster, especially in comparison to the REmake on GCN, RE4, RE0, and RE2. With so many great entries, you'd expect something more. If you're looking for zombies on the go, Deadly Silence is the better game by a longshot. Wario Land 3: Plays pretty much like any of the other Wario Land games. You know the drill: Find lots of treasures and gather as many coins as possible. In comparison to Wario Land 4 and Wario World, this one seems inferior. Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons: Great, but not as great as Oracle of Ages. Why? Ages has the better story, better puzzles, better bosses, better... Everything. BUT, that doesn't mean you ought to miss out on this one.
Anyone else remember the good ole' Color days?

I love my Pokemon Special Edition Japanese Import Gold/Yellow GameBoy Color! Lucky you, I still have to borrow my sister's GBA SP to play any GBColor games. I never owned a GBColor, but I got one for my sister on her birthday... had to trade away my deck of Magic the Gatehring cards for it.

Thinking back - Nintendo has made a lot of different GB types... the original GB, GBPocket, GB Color, GBA, GBASP, GBMicro... and I swear I missed out one, but I can't remmeber what. Or maybe I'm just imagining things.

Gameboy > Gameboy Pocket Gameboy Color Gameboy Advance > Gameboy Advance SP > Gameboy Micro
I've only owned a Gameboy Color and a Gameboy Advance. I want a Micro so I could bring it to school once Final Fantasy VI comes out. Beats the hell out of listening to idiots talk.

No, I'm not really playing any GBC games. I have one, I got it for Christmas back in 1998 along with a copy of Pokemon Blue, and that of course is a heavenly combination, especially since our only other GameBoy was one of the old ones from 1989. Only GBC games I really remember fondly at all were Mickey's Speedway USA and Pokemon Crystal, the former being hilariously awful, and the latter being one of my favorite Pokemon versions.

I got a Gameboy Color (purple) for my Birthday in 1999. Got Poke'mon Red Version and Blue Version. That was the only birthday present I ever bugged my parents with. I was bugging them since Winter 1998 for those. I regret selling my GBC with PKM Red, PKM Blue, PKM Yellow, FF Legend III, Roswell (Shudup!), and Dragon Quest Monster Tobi

But only if I have enough money.

I don't necessarily play the GBC but I do play some GBC games. Like Pilgrim John I am playing Metal Gear Solid (awsome game). I also was tring to beat Zelda Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons but I can't find it. I started to play my Poke'mon Silver Version and I am in love with it again. I remember when I first got my GBC(green) it was Christmas 1999 and I goot it with Silver Version. I always played that game since. I am also playing a Tetris DX for the GBC. I am playing all of this on my GBA SP. As an act of kindess I gave away my GBC to my cousin in Nicaragua. I miss it .

I've beaten Pokemon Silver before... had a pretty ho-hum ending in my opinion. But yeah, that GBColor version of MGS surprised me by being a smidge below the original game's greatness, proving that it's entirely possible for a HUGE game to be put onto a teensy screen. Too bad Metal Gear Ac!d didn't follow that up.

I was borrowing my bro's Gold Version. Beat the elite 4, had over 80% of the Poke'mon, had 2 Lugias and 2 Ho-oh's. Beat the elite 4 over 10 times. 1 Poke'mon close to level 100, the rest were below 65. And then my friend comes over, starts and new game, and saves. ><

And when a friend does that, he's not your friend anymore.
