An unfortunate delay.

Never heard of them before, but seems pretty interesting. According the the article they’ve released hardware before to play older games.

            For sure. I still have my old GBC and GBA games hanging around for some reason ha. So now I have a reason to hold onto them for a little longer.

      Wouldn’t it be better to just emulate the Switch on a computer?

      Some people like to play on their physical cartridges, so I understand the appeal. It has also Nanoloop embedded on it, and (if the sound is good enough) could be used to run LSDJ too. I guess some chiptuners are interested in it.

      I personally find it a bit pricey to just play on my old carts, and I wonder what a 665ppi screen (with 100x the original resolution) could bring to gameboy games.

        Currently I am not sure if yuzu (switch emulator) is super stable. But in any regard analogue doesn’t run switch games.

        But I think it does have a microsd slot for homebrew games (not sure how much they locked it down)

          I was facetious. Each time a retro console comes out, there’s always someone to tell “why not use an emulator?”. I was suggesting using a PC to emulate a Switch to emulate a GameBoy :)

            Ahhh whoosh on my part ha. But after Nintendo drops support for the switch I would love to look at loading up some custom ROMs/firmware onto it and get some emulators running.

      Can new switch revs be “jail broken”? I thought they fixed that, unless a new one was found.

      But yeah I think its just a cool (and kinda cheap ~$200) way of using your old GB and etc games. Although perhaps I would just keep using emulators.
