I spent the whole day flashing the MiyooCFW firmware onto it, customizing the menus, and testing which games ran well and which didn't (and constantly trying and failing to get Doom to run on it); I think I'm pretty happy with the end results now.

The fact that something like a Gameboy advance sp would be considered retro at this point when it was something I remember wanting a lot growing up still boggles my mind. Still don't know how I should feel about that.

(And yes, I do know this isn't an sp)

To put it into perspective, the GBA sp is 21 years old.

When the GBA sp came out, the NES was 20 years old.

Sounds pretty retro to me ๐Ÿ˜Ž
