Game Boy Color

The Game Boy Color is the successor to the Game Boy and was released in late 1998. The Game Boy Color's most notable difference over its predecessor is that its graphics are in full color. The Game Boy Color was succeeded by the Game Boy Advance in 2001. Game Boy Color units are backward compatible with games released for the original Game Boy.

Game Boy Printer
The Game Boy Printer is a peripheral released in 1998. It is compatible with both the Game Boy and Game Boy Color, although most games to use the peripheral are for Game Boy Color. In The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX, Link can visit the Camera Shop, where the player can print The Travels of Link photographs they obtained from the Game Boy Printer.

Games
Three The Legend of Zelda titles were released for the Game Boy Color. The first game, The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX, was released on a black cartridge, so the player can also play it on an original Game Boy handheld. It is also a color port of the only The Legend of Zelda game on Game Boy, The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening.

The next two games, The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons and The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages, were released in tandem. Unlike The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX, the Oracle games were released on translucent cartridge, making them incompatible with original Game Boy handhelds.
