Junichi Saito (GB Driver) is an unofficial name of the driver. It is believed to have been programmed by Junichi Saito, as it retains the same sound as his NES sound driver, as well as the first game to use the driver being a game from a company that he worked at.
To create music and sound effects, the users would have to program the modified Z80 the Game Boy had.
Release History
The driver was only used in one North American game, Battleship, which was also the first game to use the driver. There was also a Game Boy Color version of Battleship released exclusively in North America, but its music and sound is exactly the same. Later, the driver appeared in games developed by Paon. The composer of Boku no Camp-jou, Takafumi Wada said that all he knew about the sound driver's programmer is that he was from Kitazawa. His wife, Yoko Mizumoto, also used the driver in a couple games.
