Was the Game Boy Color a successor to the original Game Boy?

AND if Neo and N3DS have exclusives, they are absolutely successors. You cant have it both ways.

You know why 360 S and PS3 Slim arent considered successors? They run all the same content as the original model.

If GBC was some attachment like N64 Expansion Pack, I would agree with you. But thats not the case at all. GBC made the original GB useless for many new titles, including Zelda, Pokemon, and other notable IPs. I dont need to do research, its surprises me its even a debate.

N3DS does have an exclusive is it a successor? No, same shit with the GBC hence why GB and GBC sales are classed under the same platform, upgrades can have their own catalogue as well.

I'll say this. To be a succesor, for me. The system has to have higher than single digit original exclusive games. And most have to be close to million sellers. For me to count it as a new system. Because than, people are looking at it, as a new system. Rather than some upgrade, like the GB Pocket/light was.
