    That would be really cool.
    Fun tidbit: there’s a tiny physical switch in the plug in port that tells those systems which mode the game is for. So if the cartridge presses that switch in, the Gameboy will use the Color/Advanced software, for example.

    I don’t remember which way is for what specific system, but I always thought that was clever.
