Game Boy Color and Game Boy games
« on: February 18, 2011, 10:59:48 pm »
There are some dual mode GBC games that were released on black carts. They have a DMG item number, which classifies them as "Game Boy" titles. Since Game Boy Color titles have a number starting with CGB. I'm unsure if we should list these games as Game Boy Color, since that's what the box says, or as Game Boy, since that's what the item number says.

I say list them as GBC games.  That's what they were marketed as.

Agreed, I think the box art outwieghs the item number in this case.
