4. SOFTWARE CREATED EXCLUSIVELY FOR CGB

Because the shape of the Game Pak for CGB-only software is the same as that for DMG, CGB-
only Game Paks also can be inserted in DMG. Therefore, a program that displays a message
such as that shown below when a CGB-only Game Pak is mistakenly inserted in DMG should
always be included in the software. The upper part of the message screen should display the
official title of the game.
If the title is similar to that of other software (e.g., series software), a subtitle should also be
displayed to distinguish the programs from one another.
For information on software methods of distinguishing game units, see Section 6 of this chapter,
Software Created for CGB: Example.
