A side note to everything already said above;
Another reason the GameBoy and GameBoy Color are considered to be of the same Gen, is perhaps that both are 8-bit. Both devices are basically capable of doing the same, besides the obvious colour addition. The GameBoy Advance was a proper new system because it was 32-bit.
Mr Puggsly said: (..) PSP Go doesn't have a disc drive, but its still compatible with all the games. You just have to hack it to play games off the memory stick. |
Well you're not supposed to do that.
Out of the box, PSPGo and regular PSP were not compatible with most of each other's features. I guess that, were 'the scene' around back then, GameBoy Color games could be played on GameBoy by hacking them too and they would just be greyscale.
