Line 14:
The system was a hit, selling so many systems that Nintendo delayed the release of the [[Game Boy Advance]] a few months (since the Color's main processor was meant to be included to ensure backwards compatibility). The totals sales is unclear, since Nintendo folds the total with the original Game Boy for some reason, but the fact that it was delayed meant it had to be selling a lot.
 
An interesting addition was the inclusion of an IR port, which could allow for wireless data transfer between two systems. It wasn't as large-scale as using the link cable though, and could only be used for very minor things. As usual for the ''Pokémon'' series, ''[[Pokémon Gold and Silver (Video Game)|Pokémon Gold and Silver]]'' were probably the most well known examples of this features, allowing two players to "Mystery Gift" with each other once a day, basically creating random items for both players. The games could also communicate with a virtual pet, which could get the player a variety of items.
 
Unfortunately, the system lasted only a few years before retiring, due to Nintendo moving on to the Advance. This makes it probably the most successful system ever to have such a short cycle.
