Gameboy Color Palette

on: June 17, 2009, 09:28:57 am
How would one go about finding information on the palettes used with the original gameboy?

Thank you

Gameboy colour just uses an ordinary 15 bit colour range (like all Nintento handhelds from then on, including the Nintendo DS).
As far as the original Gameboy goes I would not say it really has a palette as such, just 4 intensities of black LCD on a rather shoddy screen.

Anyway, I will lock this thread because there are PLENTY of posts regarding this subject. Use the search function.
There are no ugly colours, only ugly combinations of colours.
