2nd Gen Inverted colours in Gold/Silver

[DeadlySplash]

I already know the changing colours cheat on Red and Blue (for those who don't know, when it says "GAME BOY", press direction buttons, or hold B while you press them for more), but a few years back I remember dropping my Gameboy Color when Pokemon Silver was starting up, and the colours turned out inverted. I have tried to do it again by pressing buttons when the game starts up, but it doesn't work. Does anyone know how this happened and how I can do it again? 'Coz it would be pretty funky =]

The inverted colours thing I think only works on the Gamboy Advance and SP, on those I think it's hold B and press down, or perhaps just press down.
Sorry I can't be of much help but if you've got an Advance of some kind, put the game in that and you can invert the colours easily (that is of course assuming they are backwards compatible to the extent that they can run original Gamboy games).

the inverting colours only worked on blue red and green because they had the same colour all the way thru pretty much but on gold silver and crystal they go inverted when its dropped god knows why but it happens try tapping the bottom of the game with your hand it should work

I think the reason the colors became inverted is because you dropped the Gameboy Color. Try dropping it again to see if you get the same result.

I've left mine out all night in the rain once, and it's hit the ground a good few times quite hard, yet still works fine. Dropping one a few times shouldn't break it.
