Oh wait I forgot about that one. IIRC, however, this was a ROM hack of the game that was modified to work in GBC mode, allowing more colors at once. Or maybe Nintendo planned a re-release that was ultimately cancelled? IIRC the Super Game Boy color palettes were presets, though. You couldn't actually choose your own colors individually.

This was a picture from a german magazine. I am not sure if there was an article that went with it too. It was supposedly something done by nintendo themselves, but it never saw the light of day. Maybe it is photoshopped by the magazine. There is a romhack though and it has added colors.
If you like my work: why not give me an internet?

It's possible that it was photoshopped to draw more sales. And yeah after investigating, the color ROM hack is actually an unfinished patch that adds the colors.
