Nintendo released a peripheral for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System called Super Game Boy in June 1994, which was modeled like a cartridge but included its own cartridge slot for Game Boy/Color games, as well as the hardware needed to translate the games. A front light was added to a special edition of the Pocket in Japan called the Game Boy Light, a feature that wouldn't be seen outside of Japan until the Game Boy Advance SP. Nintendo re-released the console as the Game Boy Pocket in 1996, with a more compact body and a better screen. They would both be succeeded by the backward-compatible Game Boy Advance. The hardware similarities allow cross-compatibility between the two platforms and they are often treated as one. It was named such from its color screen, but it also had a larger memory size and a faster CPU. The Game Boy Color uses the same LR35902 core as the original while it is clocked at 8.38 MHz, it can be underclocked to 4.19 MHz for backwards-compatibility purposes. It had a monochrome display that could only show four shades of grey, albeit with a olive green tinge on the original. The Game Boy has a Sharp LR35902 core CPU at 4.19 MHz. The Game Boy (GB) and Game Boy Color (GBC) are 8-bit, fourth-generation handheld consoles released by Nintendo on Jand Novemrespectively and retailed for $89.95.
