Resident Evil for game boy color

As many people know, there was a port of resident evil 1 to game boy color by Hot Gen, acording to pjfrith, a member that doesn´t visit this site since 2008, was one of the developers, and said that was almost complete with only bugs to be fixed.

He said that the artist involved in the project would appear in the forum, did this happen? And looks like more questions about the development would be solved.

 

Lots of people have the full version of this....

 

This is definitely out there, a well-known member of the RE community who is also a mod here owns a copy. Not only that he posted some videos, including the scarily camp voice at the start.

Is that perhaps the Chinese version you are referring to?
Only one I had heard of...

 

you mean the nes version of biohazard, this is the gameboy color version and is developed by a small? american company.

 

I dont believe they are an American company.

 

I'm guessing this has never been released? It'd be fun to mess around with.

 

Nope, no release.

 

It was developed by a British team - Hot Gen Studios.

 

Just like Resident Evil 1.5, the high quality footage doing the rounds suggests that a few copies are definitely in the hands of private collectors... but Capcom's supposedly keeping a very close eye on things, so it's unlikely to ever leak into much wider circles.

 

This is all Capcom's fault and their ridiculous game cancellation antics . :dammit:

 

:crying: I'd love to play around with this, although I do feel like trying to play re1 on a gameboy seems almost more like a chore than anything.

 

The design of this game required sprite scaling, a GBC can't do that.

 

its exists, and is playable, so it must have been able to do it in some capacity.

 

honestly, it does not at all impress me, this is the only one who is completely indifferent to me.

 

Me too it just looks like a god awful 256 colour version of the original.
re3 gbc style :lol:

 

For myself, I believe that this unorthodox conversion would rock!

 

It most certainly can. Resident Evil GBC proves that it's very much capable of doing realtime scaling of sprites.

 

There is a member on this forum that owns the game lol. It's no where near the status or rareness of 1.5, if you look in the right places and hard enough you'll find a contact for it i bet. Still rare none the less !

 

whats the members' name here? hopefully i can talk to him about this project soon if online one day
