It does display the Game Boy Player logo on startup, but the GBP palette is not set automatically. The ideal solution would probably be a hack which enables the bonus GBA content without triggering the brightened GBA palette, but that's outside my skillset, so switching ROMs is the best solution I can manage.ĮDIT2: Summon Night: Swordcraft Story 2 was already mentioned earlier in this thread, but I thought I'd check it anyway.
In general, nobody should need both patched versions, just the clean version and one patched for the opposite platform to the one they're playing on.

After that, you can switch back to the GBC-mode ROM.īetween the two ROMs, you can basically have "the full experience" on any platform. To avoid that, you can run the patched GBC-mode ROM to get the richer color the game was designed with, then switch to the standard ROM to get the bonus. If you're running the game from a flash cart on GBA, you'll get the bonus transformation, but the palette is quite washed out if you're playing on the GBA SP. This way, you can just play the normal ROM until you reach the place where the bonus is obtained, switch over to the GBA-mode ROM, then switch back to the standard ROM once you've saved. If you're playing Shantae from a flash cart on a GBC, you can't access the bonus transformation which players on GBA have-sure, you could find a GBA, or play it on an emulator then switch back to hardware, but that's kind of a hassle and presumably goes against your desire to play on a GBC. As you suspected, the use cases are a) emulators without a GBA mode option and b) real hardware. If you're using one of those, there's basically no need for these patches the emulator options do exactly the same thing without any need for modifying the ROM.
Modern emulators tend to run games in GBC mode by default, with a toggle somewhere to use GBA mode instead.
