Need opinions on Game Boy Player Land blog

[Mr.White555]

I would love to see a Game Boy Player VS Super Game Boy style article, pointing out the advantages of both, exclusives of both (Like 16bit Space Invaders on the SGB), etc.

^^^^^^
I would like to see that.

I've only got gameboys and a super gameboy so I would prefer that you stayed off of gamecube intensive articles. If the games have some special functionality or something with the gameboy player then by all means write about that stuff.

I also would love to see this... If I'm not mistaken, I think a select amount of games have more features when using the Super Gameboy as opposed to the GBP. (better color pallete, exclusive borders, etc.)

That would be a really sweet article... And as far as I know, the only one on the entire net.

Please hook it up noiseredux!

strangely enough, I have been working on a SGB article -- or rather working on researching. Somebody had PM'd me and mentioned it recently. The problem is, I haven't actually owned a SGB since around the time it came out. Haha. But I'm working on researching.

Anyway, it seems like the readers are somewhat split on the addition of GCN games to the blog...

But I just realize that most people now know me as "the Game Boy guy" so I don't anyone to think it weird. I guess?

Being "the Game Boy guy" is already weird, so don't sweat it . Take your wonderful weirdness to the limit and just do as you please!

Just don't do too much GC stuff, then my blog will be pointless!

I wouldn't step on toes. Besides, you're blog is setup differently. You do very in-depth reviews, and you give a score for each element of the game, etc. I don't do any of that. My blog barely even does reviews, but more like little anecdotes about games, or lists of games from various genres, etc. We definitely use different approaches.

I just remembered that even my very first blog post said "When you combine the libraries of Game Boy, Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance (not to mention the Gamecube itself) there's a staggering amount of games to discover."

Why don't you instead mention and highlight Gamecube games with GBA compatibility, where a GBA was used as a controller. I never used the feature but I think you could do it in Wind Waker and MGS, Pacman Vs. Zelda 4 swords and tons of others.

I don't think you should write about Gamecube stuff, especially as your reviews don't really go much below the surface of the games. I think they would end up being game summaries that someone could easily get anywhere on the net instead of coming to your game boy blog and finding gamecube articles instead.

i really like your blog, just checked it out for the first time last night and ended up reading every article. i would appreciate your addition of gamecube games. i think it suits your collecting personality pretty well and, like someone else said, it's your blog. do what you want.

I guess my thinking is (and always was) that if you can somehow play it on or plug into this box:



then it's something I'd write about.
