Just bought a 60-in-1 multicart for the Game Boy Color. :)
And it arrived in the mail this morning, here's what it looks like:
Spoiler: click to toggle


Here's a list of the games:

1. Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone - The official game, in case you're wondering
2. Digimon 3 Crystal - Yet another variation of that awful Yong Yong game, can't remember if I've seen this particular version elsewhere
3. Digimon Pocket - Variation of another Yong Yong game I forget the name of
4. Buzz Lightyear - A rather mediocre game based off the cartoon
5. Super Pika! Land - What looks like a homebrew hack of Super Mario Land
6. Super Mario 4 - That hack of Crayon Shin Chan
7. Bubble Bobble - Nuf said
8. Roadster 98 or whatever it's called - Poor man's Micro Machines
9. Loopz - Some weird puzzle game, I have no idea how to play it
10. Tetris - Again, nuf said
11. Hyper Lode Runner - A more difficult version of Lode Runner
12. (Insert obligatory repeat of Super Pika! Land here)
13. Alleyway - Poor man's Arkanoid, why is it that multicarts always have this POS? Hell, I have the original cartridge and it's not any better there.
14. Puzzle Road or whatever - Mediocre puzzle game
15. Amida - Awful puzzle game
16. Palamedes - Somewhat decent puzzle game
17. Korodice - I think this is where Nice Code got the idea for that Play Dice game
18. Dragon Slayer - Some sort of Zelda-type game I can't figure out how to play
19. Dr Mario - I think we all know what this is
20. World Bowling - A bowling game :P
21. Qbillion - I've got no idea what this is
22. Space Invaders - If you don't know what this is, then something's seriously wrong
23. Flipull - Awesome puzzle game :)
24. Pit Man - A puzzle game where you have to beat up random people
25. Tennis - What it says on the tin, although I prefer the NES version
26. Snake - A lot like Snafu on the Intellivision, except the control isn't as good
27. Flappy Special - Just like the Famicom game except a little bit better
28. Tasmania Story - Kind of like Mappy crossed with Bomberman if it was programmed by Active Enterprises
29. Trump Boy - Based off that Big 2 card game
30. Hong Kong - Some sort of puzzle game which seems to be a bit like Mahjong Solitaire, except more confusing
31. Pipe Dream - Game Boy version of Pipe Mania
32. Ishido - Another puzzle game I can't figure out how to play
33. Volley Fire - Boring shooter
34. Soukaban 2 - Sokoban with aliens or something
35. Koi Wa Kakehik or whatever - What seems to be a weird cross between those sliding puzzles and Blockbusters, as in that quiz show from the 80s
36. Battle City - Just like it was on the Famicom :)
37. Hiankyo Aliens or whatever - A bit like Onyanko Town except better
38. Shanghai - Mahjong Solitaire
39. Minesweeper - Just like it was on Windows, except with added music
40. Migrain - Mediocre puzzzle game
41. Othello - Just like the NES version, except with random portraits added
42. Motocross Maniacs - A bit like Excitebike except with more stunts
43. Spot - Based off that 7-Up character, seems to be sort of like Othello except not as good
44. Tesserae - Mediocre puzzle game
45. Mogura de Pon! - Whack-a-Mole, essentially
46. Kyoro Chan Land - Rebranded version of Castelian
47. (Insert another obligatory repeat of Super Pika! Land here)
48. Crystal Quest - Kind of like Robotron 2084, except not as good
49. Bubble Ghost - Weird puzzle game
50. Pop Up - Another weird puzzle game
51. Bomb Jack - Just like the arcade game
52. Penguin Land - That game Bit Corp ripped off, and a rather good one at that
53. Puzzle Boy - Just like the FDS game
54. Centipede - Just like the arcade version
55. Missile Command - Again, just like the arcade version
56. Asteroids - Again, just like the arcade version :P
57. Dropzone - Defender ripoff, and not a bad one at that
58. Game of Harmony - Not sure how to play this one but it vaguely reminds me of Gravitar
59. Shisensyo - A game where you match up Mahjong tiles
60. Master Karateka - A lot like the original Karateka

got me some GB games:
Spoiler: click to toggle

from left to right -
Lord of the Rings 3 - a hack of V.Fame's Devil Land without the world map
Harry Boy IV - seems to be the dumped Harry Potter game with new levels
"Dragon Quest 9 - Crystal Version" - my arse. its just Crystalis translated to Chinese. about the most interesting thing about it is that the Nintendo Software Technology logo was changed to "Niutoude Software Technology"
Lord of the Rings 2 - This is a new one I think, reminds me a bit of Zelda 2 crossed with the FF9 GB pirate.  the character you start out as is supposed to be Frodo but the sprite doesnt look anything like him so I guess it was released as something else originally.. anyway i'll definitely record a video of this one at some point.
Oh yeah and I got some plug & play consoles too.
ill go into more details on these later, but the consoles are:
Sunnyflyer 30 in 1. a weird 16-bit console with games i've never seen before. the console seems really cheaply made, as do the games.
Overmax 151 in 1 - a VT03 console with Nice Code games. most of them are just the usual stuff with upgraded graphics, but there are quite a few more interesting ones in the second half of the list, like platformers and whatnot. i think i'll do a video review of this one. although i say that about lots of things. :D
and the last one is a secret. For now. :o this one's way more interesting than the rest so I wanna take some pics and stuff. i'll either start a new thread on here or post it on my site at some point.

Ooooh, I recognize those games from Taobao, been meaning to see what they are myself but you know much it costs to get stuff from there, I can't ever afford it :/ Lord of the Rings 2 sounds pretty interesting. Now I'm gonna go nuts wondering what the original is. Is it like Zelda 2 where you have towns and dungeons? Looking forward to video!

Not sure about towns, I only played it for like five minutes. the save battery's dead so I wanna replace it before i make any actual progress in this thing.. its not exactly like Zelda 2 though, it just kinda reminded me of that towards the beginning. But i'm sure theres a better comparison that i'm completely forgetting.

Got the Ultimate TV Game yesterday. I would include a photo, but I'm pissed off at my internet connection for being a pile of wank.

Anyway, this thing includes a "19-in-1" that is really made up of lies, lies, more lies and Ashens ripoffery. Really only includes 6 games, and I wish herpes to the cuntbag that thought that was a good idea. It's vaguely understandable when you claim to have 1000000 games, but could they seriously not find 13 more to add to the list? Also worth pointing out that unlike most Famiclones where the sound is slightly off and the graphics are emulated perfectly fine, here it's the other way around. While the sound is replicated perfectly from the Famicom (apart from the slowdown thanks to PAL mode), the colours are washed out, making some things hard to read like the text in Super Mario Bros.

What's the music like in LOTR2, anyway? Sintax-esque stealing from other games? VFame-style original tunes?

Edit: Speaking of which... that's a Li Cheng cart, i.e., not whoever the original publisher was. Have you tried dumping it, taizou? Or LOTR3, for that matter, to see if it's possible to at least get a hacked version of Emo Dao out there in playable form?

It's stolen from RPG Maker, probably Sintax/BBD/TD Software/whoever's handiwork.
but yeah, I'll try dumping them both soon. And Harry Boy 4 just for shits and giggles even though it almost certainly won't because its original Sintax. its just a bit of a pain because i need a computer with a parallel port to do it, which neither of my usual ones have :D

well i've attempted to dump them - LotR 2 boots and the intro works but it crashes on the title screen. LotR 3 will only dump the first 64k for some reason. & Harry Boy IV is either dumping garbage or its encrypted, as usual for Sintax. PM me if you want the ROMs anyway.

I think I forgot to post this here, a few carts I got a couple of months ago:

Spoiler: click to toggle


The 8-in-1 is by far the most interesting cart of the lot, and contains the following:
1. Bomberman II
2. Tetris + Bombliss (Which I guess makes it a 9-in-1)
3. Double Dribble
4. The Little Mermaid (US version, which is kind of odd)
5. Hatris
6. The Legend of Zelda (The save function doesn't work :\ )
7. Contra
8. Super Mario Bros. 2 (Or The Lost Levels, if you prefer)

Super Fighter III is actually the Street Fighter III pirate.

The 250-in-1 is nothing special. It has Contra, a few 1st gen Famicom games and that's it. Might sell it because the pink 190-in-1 I have is very similar.

I also got Raf World and Transformers: Convoy no Nazo, but those are the official copies.

Ooh, had no idea Mulan was put out by X-Boy-- only version I'd ever seen of it was a repro. (Edit: Though now I see there were references in the past on this forum to Mulan being X-Boy's. Dunno how I missed that.)

Still curious just what the relationship between X-Boy and Chuanpu was, given the whole reuse of music from Barver Battle Saga and all that...

Edit: Also curious about the possible connections between X-Boy and the mysterious DVS Technology, too, for that matter.
