Quoted from Linolium:Bummer, but I guess it's all fine if it facilitates easier upgrading in the long run.
So how will this work for CFBL? That rom isn't released yet, but you can "buy the display" so to speak.
Actually, pretty awesome, and not a bummer at all. I bought a Sigma display for my CFTBL a few months ago, and I've been running it with a single color (green). Now that the colorization is announced, I just need to upgrade the firmware at no extra cost. This is a great selling point for people who might have a single color display in a game, and they can switch it to any other game they acquire that has colorization available.
I would assume the CFTBL rom will be available very soon.
