There's a difference. The PS consoles were different ones that played older PS games if they were BC while new SKUs can play the same games. The GB was able to play GBC games, meaning the GBC isn't a new console but rather a new SKU. Hey, the DSi has a camera but the DS doesn't...does that make the DSi a new system (and I think there may be a few DSi only games)? No.

 

Your aguing with someone who's being silly.  Man I wish I could tell them what they really are but of course this site's strictness on telling the truth is unjustified.  Just let him think he has a point when he really doesn't and eventually he'll get bored of himself.

The Gameboy and Gameboy Pocket could not play Gameboy Color games - not ones that were made specifically for the console. There were three classes of Gameboy games back in the day - Gameboy games, "Gameboy Color" games which were really just optimized Gameboy games to take advantage of the colors, and Gameboy Color games, which couldn't be run on the original system at all. Near the end of its life, most Gameboy Color games were of this sort.
