Hi all, my name's Mat 'The Game' Boyle, and this is my channel celebrating the exciting world of The Nintendo Game Boy! Every Friday you will find a new episode of Boyographic, the show in which I look at the highs & lows of the Game Boy library, one cart at a time! On occasion I will upload no death long play videos called 'All the Glory' and even bootlegs & unlicensed carts in 'Boy Curious'. Hope you enjoy!
State of The Union - 'Where have you been?!?' Edition
This just in - it seems like Boyographic is still a thing! Just a quick update from me folks to tell you the channel will continue, when you can expect that to happen, and a shameless plug for something new I'm working on...

Boyographic - Kirby's Block Ball Review
Переглядів 2 тис.Рік тому
Kirby is no stranger to experimental games, but perhaps the oddest of his outings on the Game Boy is in Kirby's Block Ball. Can everyone's favourite pink blob breath life in the block-breaking genre?

While the Nintendo Game Boy's wealth of puzzle games is well known, some of the system's most interesting games in the genre didn't make it outside of Japan. Does Koi Wa Kakehiki make that list? Or there is a reason it never saw a Western release?

Boyographic - The Tower of Druaga Retrospective & Game Boy Review
Great to hear you will be doing new videos mate!
Looks good, may have to try this game out
Game Boy games really don't get enough praise considering how long and dominant it was for the entire 90s and your channel was fantastic at covering them. Would love to see a continuation of the series.
Every kirby game has so much care and attention put into them. Guaranteed a fun time, every time.
Aw, welcome back Matt. I love your videos and started watching them last year when I got back into gaming. I was SO excited to play the DX version of Trip World but alas, it seems to be too hard to me. Something I overlooked … but can’t wait to hear your review of it. Glad to have you back and please spread out the vids as much as needed to keep it sustainable and fun for you. Cheers!
Just beat this game for the first time and that dust man stage was insane, think it took me 3 hours, but by the time I beat it I knew it like the back of my hand. Also those last Wiley stages with no checkpoints took me forever but I must say it was satisfying to finally beat the game! (Also a big souls fan)
I love this game but the facial recognition section always ends my run. It's the most tedious bullshit and not fair that you die if you fail.
great to hear from ya! glad the fire is coming back and I hope your podcast might make it's way to Spotify!
Hello, welcome back! Will keep a lookout for the infrequent videos when they appear 😊
Great to hear that you are well, Matt! You've been gone so long that I decided to get a Masters Degree! I'm now free to jump back into gaming! Have you had the opportunity to try The Playdate? I'll check out your podcast as I want to hear about the new Chainsaw man storyline... Cheers! ANDOYAMA
I knew you'd never truly go away. You can't help shaking that GameBoy tushy and making sexy teddy noises. Glad to see you're still having fun my guy.
Nobody else will get this, but I just did a spit take xD Good to hear from you buddy and hope you're doing well!
Well at least you didn't do something stupid like get married, or did you? Arrrggghhhh!
Hahaha I've been married for years, that believe it or not isn't one of the reasons!
@@GameBoyle Good stuff, you obviously chose wisely, some of my mates aren't allowed to do anything without their wives say so that includes gaming, yet they have to sit through soap operas and pretend to enjoy them, the humanity!
YESSS such great news!! Your vids are a huge inspiration. That Trip World sounds wicked too
Thanks for the kind words and for watching :)
Good to see you back Matt, sadly many people seem to forget this really should be just a hobby and not a bloody job. Hopefully you'll start to enjoy it again with less pressure and knowing you marking the vids because you want to and not because you "need" to. Look forward to the vids when they appear.
Cheers buddy - yeah that's exactly it dude. I'm not against people taking it seriously / wanting to make it a career if they can, it's just not where my head has ever been at with it. It just became a little too much to put the time in I wanted to to make the videos the best they could be with everything going on AFK. Let's see how it goes!
I'm glad you're okey, and don't worry about making videos too much, do them when you want, if you want to stop for wathever reason don't worry. Still good luck making them. I should check the podcast someday, good luck with that project too! Are you thinking making a video about the recolorized games for Game Boy?
I don't know if I'll cover recolorized stuff exclusively (there a lot of good examples these days) but I just really want to play Trip World again, so DX seems like the place to start. Thanks for the kind words and for watching - be sure to check out the pod if you have the time!
@@GameBoyle I'm listening to the podcast and I've never expected you to join SNESDrunk to talk about manga instead of videogames (but there was a bit of videogame in that Frieren program you made). I'm liking it.
I'll be here when it drops!
Really glad you’ll be back!
Thanks - good to be back!
Fantastic to hear! And I can relate, when making videos begins to feel like filler content, it's good to take a break.
Yup, I know you've felt that way before dude, it was actually nice to chat with you about this a couple of weeks ago. Thanks for the support as always!
I definitely don’t want to hijack this, so I’ll just say thanks to both of you for introducing me to not only games, but also mindsets to help and enjoying them with my kid. Nothing but success and peace to the both of you.
I waited a year for this update and I can comfortably wait another year for a video.
Ahh it won't be that long I promise haha! Thanks for the support and kind words though!
Good to see you back. Checked out your manga podcast, loving it so far - worked out well since I've read all but one of the series you've covered so far.
Cheers buddy! Which one hadn't you read out of interest? Akane?
@@GameBoyle Orange, actually. Been wanting to check it out one day. I've actually been following Akane Banashi since it premiered. My Japanese teacher in college was very into rakugo and I learned a lot about it from her, so I was primed to be interested in that series - hope it gets an anime one day.
@@MrLeo34 I take you've already watched / read 'Descending Stories?' it's a pretty good Rakugo story imo. I'd love an Akane anime though - it's my favourite thing running in SJ atm! For Orange I will say it starts very strong, but I went a little lukewarm on it by the end - it's worth reading, but I think once some of the mystery layers get pulled back, I wish they hadn't hahah
Great to see you Mat! Take your time, love your reviews. I've drifted away but still have my collection, many games I still want to play/replay
Thanks :) Yeah I know the feeling, sometimes things like gaming have to take a back seat, but even so I'm still glad you want to see something new from me!
Yes Gameboyle is back!!! I've been recommending your channel to so many people. 🥲
Glad to see you back! 😊
Thanks for the comment - good to be back!
What a pleasant surprise to see a new video from you!
And lovely to see you in the comments again after the time away! Thanks for the support as always!
HELLOOOOOOO!!!!
HELLOOOOOOOO LAZ!
Great to hear more GB content is coming in the future! Thanks for all the hard work you put into your projects! 😊
And thanks for taking the time to watch them and comment!
Wow!!! So cool to see a video of you, to hear your voice. ❤. Take your time for the videos. I love your gameboy reviews. Do you have a analogue pocket to play your gameboy games on? Love to see your gameboy collection. That video in which you show your games is from years ago haha. Love to see you back man. ☺️. Maybe a top 10 gameboy list, or a hidden gems list? 🍿 Edit: yes you have a pocket haha.
Haha yup! I've thought about experimenting with some other format types, so let's see what happens! Thanks for the kind words and for watching!
Mate - your Game Boy reviews are absolutely superb. I think you are a brilliant content creator. I have watched all of those vids more than once. Do whatever makes you happy, man. You have given so, so much and owe us nothing. Just delighted you are considering doing more GB stuff. You are a special talent. Thank you for everything :)
appreciate your efforts man
Thanks - as long as folks keep watching / enjoying, I'll be happy to make them!
glad to see the boy back
Thanks - good to be back... Or I guess it will be haha!
Small UA-camr jumpscare.
Mwhahah! Good to see you in the comments again!
Hey good to see you back again, excellent news.
Thanks for the kind words! Good to be back!
Burnout and scope-creep are terrible things to suffer through, and I know that it can be hard to get back on the wheel, so to speak. As others have stated, take the time you need and don't feel pressured to make videos (though I'd still like to see a new one). Quite a few of the Game Boy games I have I've gotten due to you. And good luck on your podcast, not hugely knowledgeable on manga myself, though I've somehow ended up with a library of anime.
Yup... I really felt the burden of wanting to 'one up' the last video and trying to cover things more and more intensely, but now I think I'm just going to keep it casual / maintain a balance between research and execution imo. And thanks - even if it's not your bag, I'd appreciate you giving it a cheeky review so I can get it up the charts a little!
hell yeeee
Woop Woop!
Happy about any Gameboyle Video I can watch. And if it may be one every ten years! ❤
Fingers crossed it isn't a decade between them ;)
Nice video! As you said, the controls can be very clunky. The last stages are also extremely hard - I couldn't finish it without savestates to be honest, whereas I can beat Asterix in hard mode on real hardware (one of my favorites GB titles btw) The shoot'em up section is also very tough. There are just too many projectiles. For me, it's the Touhou of the Game Boy... except you have a bigger hitbox 😅
Have missed your videos! great to see you coming back, each video will be worth the wait.
Thanks for the kind words - no promises yet, but I'll make sure the things I do put out are worth watching at least!
YES! Welcome back. And no pressure, I’d love to watch new Game Boyle vids at a slower pace.
Thanks Niels, I'll see what happens when I find a rhythm but the plan is to take it easy!
It's ok. I really like your videos on gb/gbc, so i'll love watching those new ones. Take your time and do the things you enjoy the most!
Cheers Tonk - good to see you in the comments again!
Hellllllloooo everybody!
And a hellllllloooo to you too!
Yay!!! We missed you, Matt!!!! Humble request......Burning Paper, (Japanese exclusive, by the way), please. Looking forward to videos, my friend.
Believe it or not, I still don't actually have a copy of that damned game... I thought I did, but when going through the collection lately it's not amongst my Japanese carts... I'll pick it up when I'm in Japan next and cover it for sure, it's a great game! Thanks for the kind words :)
Hello! I've been following your Gameboy channel for some time now. I'm glad to see you'll be back with new videos! If I can make a suggestion, could you cover the game Toxic Crusaders? I've been looking into getting the game and would like to hear your review on it. Thanks! 🙂
Oh that's a good shout actually Brett - I've had it forever but never covered it... I warn you, if memory serves it's not the best game, but I guess we'll find out together if it's worth getting or not! Thanks for the kind words and for watching!
@@GameBoyle Haha, yeah, I've heard it's not the greatest of Gameboy games but would still like to see a video on it. I'm a fan of the Toxic Avenger movie and Toxic Crusaders cartoon. There's actually supposed to be a new Toxic Crusaders beat em up game releasing soon, as well as a Toxic Avenger remake movie. So it could be a good time to do a review on the Gameboy game.
take your time making the videos man, i know youtube doesn't get the amount of views you deserve so it's best to just keep doing it whenever you feel like it 👍
hey! is the gameboyle!
@@MarioTGP Hey Mario :) It’s been a while!
@@GameBoyle yeah! it's been a while man, i just finished the video, i'm glad to know you're ok, take the time you need to make new boyographic videos, they're always 🔥
Hi! I wonder what terrains are the stages supposed to be? I know the top right one is ice and the bottom right is underwater, but what are the upper left and bottom left ones? Thank you in advance! 😊
I picked this game up a week ago for $5. It's pretty hard but fun.
I wish this was an adventure game about Yoshi running a bakery instead.
I am kinda amazed at how similar the game looks to Moonwalker.
