    You could pull off 2 player with the SGB?  The games I had never allowed that.

      Yeah not many games actually had that feature built in. Just like with the boarders and color pallets if they didn’t program it in it couldn’t be done.

    Graet video, Kevin. The Super Game Boy is for sure a excellent acessory.

    Nice one man! This was (and still is) a wonderful add-on/accessory. Speaking of which, I think I need to buy one again…

    Loved the Super Game Boy. Spent so much playing Game Boy games on it.

    Wow, I just got rid of that exact issue of Sonic The Hedgehog hanging on your wall last week.  They are releasing a massive Hardcover of the original Sonic comics in a few months.

    Also, had a lot of fun with the Super Game Boy when I bought it two years ago.  I loved inventing different color combinations in the game.  Good video.
