Project Description

I have some several hundred Game Boy and Game Boy Color games, 284 of which are unique. I bought many of them from a couple local Gamestops when they were closing out of GB/C stock, and had the games on sale at 15% original asking price. I bought some others off eBay in lots. Still others I bought from friends online.

For the longest time, the games were just sitting around. I bought them not to play immediately, but because they were selling at ridiculously good prices. I figured I'd get around to playing them eventually.

Eventually came, and one of the first titles I started to play was Cyraid. But I had some trouble. I immediately got stuck on the 2nd level, and could not for the life of me figure out how to get past it. Naturally, I searched online for information, but found nothing. I never expected the internet to fail me at such a crucial point in my life.

While my faith in the internet is forever shattered, others' need not be. As I play my GB/C games, I will record what I learn here in the Game Boy Archive. It is a personal project, undertaken for my own amusement, but hopefully others will find something useful here.
