The Game Boy Color is the successor to the Game Boy and the Game Boy Pocket, and in some ways, the handheld counterpart of the Nintendo 64. It was similar to its predecessors, the most notable differences was that it was lighter and capable of displaying multiple colors.

Some games made for the original Game Boy displayed more colors if played on a Game Boy Color. Other games were made exclusively for the Game Boy Color. The older versions couldn't play these, but the Game Boy Advance could. It was discontinued in 2002 and the last game was released in 2003.

The Game Boy Color had the A Button , B Button , Start Button , Select Button buttons and the +Control Pad from the original Game Boy.
