Platforms

Hello!

I was wondering if you could add the other platforms to this game. :) {GBC, GBA, GBP, SGB2, GBI, GB, GBA}

And I wonder why GCN is a platform? I assume this was meant to be GBi(Game Boy interface) and GBP(Game Boy Player)

I find there is value in knowing the hardware runs were done on.

Thanks!

Done. Perhaps the systems were limited because the site didn't offer these options back when we opened this leaderboard.

I still don't really know what GBI is so I'm hesitant to add it.

Thanks so much! I appreciate that a lot.

GBi is a custom firmware for the Game Boy Player; aimed to reduce the input lag to the GBP. It still uses the GBP hardware, but with a custom interface. It's a hardware standard for most game boy boards, along with the SGB2.

The up to date differences between GBi and GBP can be found here: https://www.gc-forever.com/wiki/index.php?title=Game_Boy_Interface

Also, here are a number of larger Game Boy boards that use it as a listed platform: Kirby's Dream Land The Pokemon games (and we know how serious they are about timing) Legend of Zelda: Links Awakening DX The Oracle Zelda games Man other GBC and GBA games that I don't know because I only run GB games. :p

It is known to be an accepted standard, and I've never heard of it being banned before;Obviously it's your call are the board mod what platforms you allow.

Thank you for hearing me out! Legs
