Gameboy4iPhone Preview

The video presented below offers up several Game Boy game demos: Castlevania Adventure, The Legend of Zelda, Super Mario Land (naturally), Bomberman, and Bubble Bobble.  I had a couple of others I was going to add, but one was too blurry (tip: Make sure macro focus is selected), and the other got cut off because I was using a crappy slow card that can’t keep up with my camera’s capture capabilities.  Nevertheless I think this is a decent cross-section of a few great oldies.  Excuse my lame skillz, I’m still not entirely used to virtual buttons with no tactile feedback.

Without further ado, my mad video skills:

There is no current release date, but since it’s in beta, expect it pretty soon.
