Upvoting because they’re using Links Awakening as the photo. I loved that game when I was 6. I loved the remake when I was 26.

Am I the only one who questioned why someone would put a dating app on a gameboy before they reread the sentence?

If you bother to actually read the article it was just a joke that ended up being made reality. It’s not supposed to be good, it was just a fun “What if we could” project.

The folks who (like me) are delighted by this news should join the fun we have in r/gameboy doing all kinds of wacky stuff like this and more! :)

And chunkier. And not in color. And won't play Game Boy Color games or Game Boy Advance games.

This isn't delightful at all. The SP existing makes it fucking pointless, and the headline of the article even points that out.

I really wish they would just make a full keyboard ala the old Optimus keyboard.

Why pay for the extra hardware when they can force you to use the software and get to data mine you at the same time!?!

I’m interested in retro tech and Gameboy pockets… and I’m not delighted either. Strange.

Dick clique
Because you'd call a lad a knob, but you wouldn't really call a dude a wang or a penis, would you? Honest question I'm ESL

It's cool but I must correct the record and declare, I am NOT delighted by this.

God, I hate titles like this. Some appropriate responses to this abysmal writing would be “that just sounds like a game boy advance SP with extra steps” or “they’re the same picture”. You’re like Elon when he basically “rediscovered the bus”. It’s an SP.

I just really want Nintendo to make a real portable system again. I really do. One screen. 4-6 buttons. Dpad primary but a low analogue pad stick is good. ONE SCREEN. Good battery life. Make it wifi. Bring the old GBA/C library to it, make a handful of fun repayable titles for it. ONE SCREEN. Mario. Mario Golf. Fzero. Wario. Megaman. Old school Pokémon, maybe even Pokémon Go. Dragon Quest. Indie titles like Shovel Knight, Spelunky. Slay the Spire would be cool. Isaac. Other roguelikes. ONE GOD DAMN SCREEN.
oh and don't forget to make it pocketable and just have one screen.

Yeah the big problem with the game boy pocket was how big and bulky it was 🙄
