Yeah, the first TMNT Game Boy game is one of my favorite games to play!

Aladdin for #gameboy stage 1 uses the song from the Genesis prototype stage 2!
Which was cut and then repurposed for The Jungle Book stage 3!

02.11.2025 12:09 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Wait, are there any #gameboy games with boomerangs??? ๐ง
All I can think of is Link's Awakening, and that's a hidden optional item that is so overpowered it practically breaks the game...
Maybe Quick Man's weapon in Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge?
Boomerages are seriously underrepresented on the GB!
That's Pokรฉmon Gold, right? It's fully playable in grayscale on an original Game Boy. ๐

I was obsessed with this game. It was the reason I wanted to become a programmer and make games myself. 
Here is my playthrough of the colorized romhack, but my favorite of ANY version (DS, PC...) is the original grayscale. ๐

Castlevania II is SO GOOD. ๐ฉ Every time I pick it up I can't put it down!
Also that soundtrack. ๐

It's a good game, but the ONLY way I ever saw the final stage was with a Game Genie. ๐ตโ๐ซ

It was BAD. ๐๐

I hate how addicting and GOOD this game is. It's such a simple concept, WHY IS IT SO MUCH FUN??? ๐ค๐
01.11.2025 21:48 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0In many ways the challenge and difficulty curve makes it even more fun to re-play than its sequel. ๐

01.11.2025 21:46 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I agree! Also I realized recently... The stage 1 music is a new song made for this game? It's not the song from the Genesis game or the film... Kinda random. ๐ค๐ค๐ค
01.11.2025 21:45 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 1Woah, this game was definitely a guilty pleasure of mine. ๐ I bought it back when it came out and have played through it soooo many times. It's a nice, simple, short, and relatively easy game, and it's infinitely better that Space Cadet Adventures... ๐๐

It did always make me laugh that the Nintendo Game Boy got the Sega Genesis version of the game. ๐คญ
Hermano by @patmorita.bsky.social is one of the BEST modern games for the #gameboy! ๐คฉ

@historyofhyrule.com Hi! I was talking recently about that thing Zelda 1 for NES where if you kill the secret "leader" in a room then all other enemies instantly die too, but I can't find where I learned that! Do you know where? I could've sworn it was the instruction manual... ๐ค๐ค๐ค
29.10.2025 14:58 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I could've sworn it was in the instruction manual but I can't find it... ๐ค
Anyway the idea was that sometimes a screen will have a "leader", and if you get lucky and kill it all the other enemies on screen disappear.
I LOVE TCRF! โค๏ธ
I actually posted this recently, it made me finally understand why the hippo was so weird in Link's Awakening. ๐คฏ

The #playstation2 is the best selling video game console of all time and I just realized, I think literally the ONLY game I've ever really played on it was Katamari Damacy... ๐ค
