GBC games with GB support have not GBC color palettes #18

When I run a GBC game with GB support (eg. Wario Land 2) it only uses a monochrome screen and does not use a GBC color palette. Used filetype is "gbc".

OhBoy works correctly and uses gbc colors. I think that Gambatte SDL with Rumble support (available on MiyooCFW 1.3.3) uses sgb colors.

Tested with: Release 20210116 On: Pocket Go v1 with MiyooCFW 1.3.3

OhBoy: wario-land-2-ohboy

Gambatte-DMS: wario-land-2-gambatte

Gambatte-SDL: wario-land-2-gambatte-sdl

Go to Menu > Settings > System, and select "Priority GBC".
Save the settings.
Restart the emulator.

The Priority option lets you choose the preferred system (GB or GBC) to use in those rare cases when a ROM supports both GB and GBC modes.

Ah, thanks. This works! I tried already the Priority GBC option and restart the game in the emulator. But I don't tried to save this option and restart the emulator, haha... 😃

Cool! I guess the issue is solved then ;-)
