GBC color limitations
#2
https://www.nintendo.com/consumer/system...ychart.jsp

- They are two different systems like Wii and Wii U.
- They are backwards compatible (GB games on GBC is possible), but not forwards compatible (GBC games on GB is not possible).
- So even if the manufacturer forgot to put some nick on the GBC cardridge, the GB cannot play it.

The colour limit probably applies to 8x8 tiles. Shantae has sprites which have 10-11 different colours, so they're different parts stored in multiple sections within the game and each section applies a different palette to its sprites.
