List of cancelled Game Boy Color games

Last updated

This is a list of cancelled Game Boy Color video games. The Game Boy Color (GBC) is a handheld video game console released by Nintendo in 1998. The color-screened successor to the monochrome Game Boy, first released in 1989, the GBC's time on store shelves was comparably short, being succeeded by the Game Boy Advance (GBA) in 2001. During this time, several games being developed for the system were cancelled for reasons such as technical limitations, financial difficulties, and the forthcoming release of the GBA, with a number of games being moved to that system instead. Many of these games were not known about in detail or in any capacity until 2020, when ROM images of several game prototypes were leaked onto the internet as part of a larger Nintendo data leak. [1] [2] This list documents all known games that were confirmed to be announced or in development for the Game Boy Color at some point, but did not end up being released for it in any capacity.

40 Winks A 2D platformer version of 40 Winks (1999) was in development for Game Boy Color. However, just prior to the PlayStation version's release, financial troubles with the game's publisher, GT Interactive, and their subsequent buyout by Infogrames, led to the cancellation of its nearly-finished Nintendo 64 version, while the GBC version was cancelled before ever being publicly announced. This version's existence would remain unknown until 2021, when a prototype was found being sold on eBay. Piko Interactive, who acquired the rights to the property in 2018, have expressed interest in finishing and releasing an aftermarket version of the game, as they did with the N64 version.
