Re: Feature: Game Boy Games We Probably Won’t See On Nintendo Switch Online

@Jokerwolf Releasing games as a stand alone does not make a company greedy. We should pay for the hard work they put in. As a software engineer myself, I wouldn't want my games to be absolutely free either. They have that choice, to put it on the "online service" or to release it as a stand alone, either way, I still think we will see them come to light.

So if #0000FF and #8080FF and #000080 are the same wavelength then they must all be the same color. The only difference then would be how much additional brightness it has or doesn't have right?

I learn best by challenging and debating. You don't have to start throwing around fighting words, this is an educational debate and I am enjoying it.

@bluebonics But you CAN describe light blue (490nm) and dark blue (440nm) respectively with different wavelengths. Every other color can be described, and has been described with a single wavelength of light. You say you can't describe colors with a single wavelength, but you can. Even if the sky is a mixture of white light, you can still say that a particular wavelength of light can stimulate the color cones in your eyes in the same exact way.

Okay, I think I understand, but lets go back to Magenta then.

Magenta is a result of your red and blue color cones being stimulated and with no green stimulation. The problem is that the light spectrum goes from Violet-Blue-Green-Yellow-Orange-Red. When your color cones are firing off blue and red, and also not green your brain just doesn't know what to do with that so it makes up a color.

@bluebonics You are must certainly "particularly" right.

"Consider R=255,B=255,G=0 and R=255,B=0,G=255. The first is magenta and the second is yellow, but in neither case is there a wavelength associated with the color you're seeing hitting your eye." - I just described Yellow with 580nm wavelength that you said had no association...

Also, It's wrong to say that 580nm is stimulating your receptors the same as red and green because they are not. If they did you'd see the same color everywhere. Each one effects your eyes differently. You don't have a color cone for each color you only have 3 (sometimes four if you're lucky). For example, don't have a yellow color cone but you can still see yellow... You're also wrong about yellow not being a feature of 580nm light specifically, it is. You can change the wavelength but you'll end up with a different color hence why it can be described in such a way.

@bluebonics You are partially right, there is no wavelength to describe R=255,B=255,G=0 and you can't because red and blue are on opposite sides of the spectrum. But you can for R=255,B=0,G=255 = Yellow with a wavelength of 580 nm. The color itself is totally the brain's interpretation of it as you said, but you can describe it to others with that wavelength. Magenta you can't.

White is a result of material reflecting all wavelengths.
Black is a result of material absorbing all wavelengths.

I never even touched it, looked too toony for me. Even Breath of the Wild was a little too toony at first, I didn't even get it till 2 years after it was out, and I didn't even get to 6 hearts and on until 2 more years after that. But once I did finally get into it, I regretted not getting into it in the beginning. Sounds like I missed a gem here.
