Hey, tried to make a short glitch hop tune, any feedback is welcome. The fake gameboy sound is produced by LMMS's freeboy plugin (I'm currently waiting for a cartride so will use legit 8-bit sounds in the future wink )

Thanks for all response, I will go for a color then and keep my eyes open on a DMG.

Thanks a lot! I wouldn't say I'm good at soldering, only done some stuff with an arduino, where I made a short circuit by mistake. xD

I won't game on it, and it's a regular gameboy i talk about (SP is quite expensive I've seen), so I guess GBC is the way to go then.

May I also ask if there is any difference in sound in DMG and pocket?

EDIT: Nvm my last question, checked out the comparison regarding the pocket.

If my only option is between a color and advance, which should I get?

I've read here http://www.herbertweixelbaum.com/comparison.htm and here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compariso … e_consoles

It seems that GBA is better than GBC in that comparison, but GBA is 32bit and GBC is 8bit? Or does the GBA have a 8bit for the sounds, I don't quite understand the wikipage. How difficult is it to mod the GBC with "prosound", and would it sound better?

I like these, metalcore though:

I grew up in the PS2/Gamecube era, and if you ask someone in my age what chiptune is a large majority knows about it even though few are fans of it. Now, if you ask a generation AFTER mine, the ones born in the 2000, then actually more people are into chiptune, why? Because they grew up with indie games taking inspiration from old school games.

I actually didn't play GB when I was little, my first console was GameCube then Nintendo DS.

EDIT: Nick Walrus you're right, good point.

But may I ask, is around $50 a decent price, is it cheap or too much?

Hi, I would like to get started with LSDJ.

Cheapest cartridge I have found is for $40 including shipping, most expensive I've found is $90.

Anyone know somewhere to buy cheaper ones? Maybe I'm just a cheap person, but I thought it would be more expensive to get the GB itself and not a little flash card for it.
