Resident Evil Gameboy?

Archived from groups: alt.games.resident-evil (More info?)

Hi all, just stumbled upon some screenshots I've never seen before of a
Gameboy RE port. I don't know if they're genuine, but they certainly
look like an authentic port.

In one of the pics you can clearly see the zombie that killed Kenneth,
and man would this game have been impressive.

There was also a port of RE2 in the works for Sega Saturn. I don't know
how far they got on it. Seems Saturn couldn't do it justice.

And of course there's the N64 version of REZero. I don't know the story
on why that was held back.
