Homebrew it IS possible to play GB games in color on the 3DS

[deathblade200]

that's nice and all but a bit missleading, playing then in goomba is like playing an emulator inside an emulator, it's neither clean or something you would want to do...
Plus goomba isn't playing the game in fullspeed and has graphical glitches.
if you really want a good result I would recommend playing the game with gameyob in 3ds/ds mode instead.

it actually plays the games at full speed with no glitches so idk what you are talking about and its simply used as a method to actually play the games in color...also gba mode is not an emulator

That's really cool!, I'll look into it then.

ive looked and it does actually have a sleep option but I can't say how well it works but it does turn screen back on when you open the 3ds

Another way of playing them in color, is launching the game in TWLoader, and then GameYob (DS version) will load it in color, if you have the GBC BIOS set.
And sleep mode works properly there.

how is it that the 3DS port of gameyob can do it without the GBC BIOS but the DS version cant?
also, where do i put the BIOS?

You can put the BIOS anywhere.

GameYob works in TWLoader?

GameYob works in TWLoader?

Yes.
Just put the games in "sd:/roms/gb", launch the game in TWLoader, and GameYob will start it.
Make sure TWLoader is up-to-date, and that the "_nds" folder is extracted from the latest version's .7z file, in the "sdroot" folder.

Nope well at least with the GB VC the closest you could get is GBC colours

so then the question is how you did that then unless that is an ips patch thats the only way I've found to be able to play them in color in the vc

 

[sliver123]

Nice game graphics, it looks similiar to some old game that i tried when little (pokemon something but not the normal ones)

 

[Xathya]

ya its the colors of the roms that are the colors not of the emulators or the desivce itself mus tbe embed in the romes!!!

how did you get the cool borders in VC?

 

[Ryab]

GB games have no color I'm afraid. You're probably looking for GBC or GBA.

what he means is some gb games add color when used on a gbc

I've been trying to get this to work for a while with Donkey Kong(which has a full set of 8 color palettes built into it). Even has its own fancy border.

But I can't get any Virtual Console injects to play it this way.

Have you tried this game in mGBA emulator? It's also a GB and GBC emulator btw.
