I've been in a Pinball mood lately, so played a bit of Revenge of the Gator and beat the high score.

Nice, there's a few more pinball titles on Game Boy, including a couple European ones.

I went ahead and finished Breakthru! I did it for SNES too, and the Game Boy version is very full-featured. And I say that every year.

I either don't like or don't own the remaining ones, so I'll probably be leaving them for someone else.  Also, if I'm not mistaken, Pinball Deluxe is just a compilation of Pinball Dreams and Pinball Fantasies, so I don't think it needs a separate entry.

I'll look into it. Pinball Deluxe certainly looks like a re-skin of Pinball Fantasies, but I remember going into both and seeing that the tables were different. I'll take a good look at them, I think Pinball Mania might have some overlap as well.

Super Mario Land 2: Six Golden Coins is done. Full disclosure, this was the DX modification that added full color and removed the slowdowns by using the GBC processor. If this version is not allowed, I will accept it not counting.

DX is fine. From what I've seen, it's super faithful to the original.

Yeah dude, I've never been able to beat F-1 Race myself. Someday.

F-1 Race completed. I had this game as a kid and could never get passed the second track. Took a great deal amount of time but I got it finished in one sitting. I appreciate the Nintendo character camios after every track completion.

In the second picture you can notice the stack of gameboy games I plan on getting through in the near future. More to come!

Finished Super Mario Land just before bed! I have a charger for my SP on loan, so expect much more from me.

Lol same. I thought for a long time that it was a great GB classic, basically the GB version of Excitebike. I re-played it recently and wondered where I got all those crazy ideas.

Gargoyle's Quest completed. I've had the game for over a year but never gave it a try until now. I was surprised by how much game was packed into that cart. That's in the top five of my favorite game boy games.

I had more pictures but my phone decided to save a blank grey screen instead.

Edit - I was going to post pictures but my stupid phone decided to eat them. My Samsung is getting more and more issues.

I started playing final fantasy legend. I've been grinding at the beginning of the game for an hour while watching a movie with my girlfriend. I'm excited to try this game out.

It has been a rough night for my handheld, but I still managed to finish up 2 more. Arcade Classic No. 3: Galaga / Galaxian and Jeopardy! Teen Tournament.

Learned how to play Backgammon so I could finish 4-in-1 Funpak. Looking into vol. II.

Love how video games can inspire people to learn like this. I didn't know the rules of cricket at all until I picked up a cricket video game for the heck of it and learned it all. Now I'm the only person I know who can explain the sport to anyone in my social circles.

Yeah dude, I dated a girl who said her department at work was going to go golfing together, and she didn't know anything about golf. So I started telling her everything I knew, which was a lot. She asked me if I was a big golfer. I am not. But I've played lots of golf video games. We went to a driving range and I embarrassed myself.

Anyweeez, I brushed up on my cribbage knowledge and beat 4-in-1 Funpak Volume II. The rules to "Yacht" are slightly different than what I'm used to, but it's ok because the computer is TERRIBLE at playing. Hilariously bad choices. Some guy must have just barely managed to teach the AI how to play. All of the YOU WIN screens are as exciting as this one.

I realize I uploaded a nearly identical photo last year, but I was in a car messing around on my phone and I broke the bank in Casino Funpak in a matter of minutes.

Edit: I was not driving the car. I was a passenger.
