Join me and my robot, the Lexiabot9000, on my quest to play every Game Boy, Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance game ever made!*

Lexy randomly chooses a new game for me in each video, and I do my best to play them through to completion while finding out as much about them as I can. As playing entirely through every single game would be a miserable process, both for myself and the viewer, and impossible in the case of some games that don't have an actual ending, many games end up as Let's Briefly Plays, or even Let's Not Plays, depending on the length played and how good (or how crap) a particular game is.

I also take requests, so if you've got a favorite game you want to see, or a particular stinker you want me to suffer through (like how Altered Beast on GBA was a request by a certain person who loves to watch me suffer through terrible games), just let me know and I'll add them onto the list! :)

*Some exceptions granted, such as dual release games (like the later Battle Network games), which are largely identical and merit only one game being played. Also exempt are most games which are straight ports of NES games, like the NES Classic series or the Hudson Best games, and due to overall similarities, many sports games will be deleted after one in a particular series is played, like Madden games or the like.

Including multiple versions in case of Pokemon and Mega Man Battle Network? Good luck.

I was attempting to imply that he should do it nonetheless, at least the parts where the story differs. :smalltongue: 4-6 have some differences due to character plots being different, though Pokemon doesn't have that as much so. Or rather, Pokémon takes much longer to complete and the differences come down to what Legendary you end up getting (or getting first). Only in Ruby/Sapphire the difference has some plot connections, but they're incredibly minor. Then again, in case of the Pokémon games, the best option is clearly to take Option C and go for the special version in every generation.

Pokemon and the Battle Network games are just two examples among /dozens/, it became a huge fad on the Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance. Franchises great and unknown both took to it, releasing dual copies of games left and right. I chose a single version of each to play through way back when I first started on this journey. I'll do my best to complete what I can, but I will admit that I'm a bit hesitant to do all of the Pokemon games, mostly due to their overwhelming similarities, and also largely due to the fact that the Pokemon LP market is absolutely flooded at this point, I'd be less than a drop in the bucket and I have thousands of other games that need attention.
