    Have you had to replace the battery in your cartridge yet? I switched to a handheld emulator system because all my cartridges started dying.

      Yup, twice actually. I’ve had this cart for a really long time. It’s pretty simple as long as you use a good quality soldering iron.

        I definitely respect the dedication to playing on the original hardware. I got a retrostone a few years ago and it’s pretty fun for mobile retro gaming. I’ve got access to all the game boy iterations and NES, SNES and Sega Genesis and it looks kinda like an original game boy.

          Thanks, it’s not quite all original though! I added a backlit LCD screen so I didn’t have to strain my eyes.
