Pokemon Yellow was originally released 9-98 and Small Soldiers released 11-98. If your ( @Tanooki) using the logic that the Pokemon yellow would be a gray then based on the release date it would be a gray cart and be included but due to the "code" it has the GBC header then Pokemon yellow would be one of the first "Crossover GBC) and not included in the OG DMG list but in the "crossover" or GBC beat every game list. @Floating Platformswas unaware of the Beavis & Butthead had a re-release! @Tanooki i with you once very 20 years is good for me..

Small Solder is on the list then Pokemon Yellow should also be included, right? as for the last b/w (just looking at the release dates) Small Solder would be the last b/w game would it not? @Splain, is Pokemon yellow in the black cart(crossover list), or the GBC list?

Great data. however i was looking at how the manual numbers could relate to how many cart variants there are.

Just running through a few games and stumbled on a theory and was looking to see if it hold water. For years we have been tracking variants on Nintendo Games (for me it's GB). One thing I have always wondered why manuals are not following the revision ie label identity. Could it be as some suspect "easier/less expensive to update and print the a CIB" (as @RH suspects) or is it quite possibly a non documented revision (i.e. no version bump on label) here is the data.. GB: Legend of Zelda, The: Links Awakening has 4 cart versions and 5 manuals the label are as follow DMG-ZL-USA (Manual and cart) DMG-ZL-USA-1 (Manual and cart) DMG-ZL-USA-2 (Manual and cart) USA-ZL-USA-3 (Manual and cart) USA-ZL-USA-4 (Manual ONLY) Here is where the theory changes the whole thing. Some time during the first year of production the programmers did some sort of bug fix/ change. Causing Nintendo to change the CIBs but that did not trigger a label version bump i.e. going from DMG-LZ-USA to DMG-LZ-USA-1. Such label change might have been reserved for a major (graphic) release. However to keep up with the correct data in the manuals they did a manual version update along with a box version update (this is a hole other can of worm). This would increase the actually cart count to 5 versions thus matching the manual count. So with that data applied you get this. Manual Cart 5 manuals and 5 carts, DMG-ZL-USA DMG-ZL-USA (Original ROM DMG-ZL-USA-1 DMG-ZL-USA (ROM UPDATE) DMG-ZL-USA-2 DMG-ZL-USA-1 USA-ZL-USA-3 DMG-ZL-USA-2 USA-ZL-USA-4 DMG-ZL-USA-3 the manuals and games are accounted for Tennis 3 manuals and 3 carts, Manual Cart DMG-TN-USA DMG-TN-USA (Original ROM DMG-TN-USA-1 DMG-TN-USA (label variant) DMG-TN-USA-2 DMG-TN-USA-1 other examples. Tetris( @RH theory works here) it is plausible that bundles can account for the manual changes 6 manuals and 5 carts, DMG-TR-USA org with ROM A DMG-TR-USA label variant 1 DMG-TR-USA label variant 2 DMG-TR-USA-1 DMG-TR-USA -2 Super Mario Land (SML)( @RH theory works here) it is plausible that bundles can account for the manual changes 8 manuals 4 carts DMG-ML-USA = manual blank -1 DMG-ML-USA(rom) = manual 2-5 DMG-ML-USA-1 = manual 6-7 DMG-ML-USA-2 = manual 8 Dose this hold water? How dose this data compare to say NES or SNES or even DS? Is it plausible that some games have variants that are not yet documented?

so now i have seen #6 and #7. by chance do you recall where you got this proto?

@Mvgamer, Thank for the heads up on the DMG-130. that one is the Hong Kong version that is only seen a few times each year in the wild.

FB Posted thanks again for the great Game.
