A blue Game Boy Color system.

Game Boy was the first handheld developed by Nintendo. While the original system displayed games in black and white, the later Game Boy handhelds, Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance, allowed for a color display.

Enix and Square Enix released several Dragon Quest titles on Nintendo's various Game Boy systems.

Game Boy

No Dragon Quest titles were released for the Game Boy; however, Dragon Quest I & II and Dragon Quest Monsters were backwards compatible with the system. Both games could also be played on a Super Game Boy, an adapter that allowed games to be played on a Super Nintendo Entertainment System.

Game Boy Color

The Game Boy Color is the successor of the original portable Nintendo video game system, Game Boy, and the predecessor of the Game Boy Advance. It is notable for being the first handheld to feature a full 15 bit color palette, of which up to 56 colors could be displayed simultaneously.
