I have a bit of an obsession with handheld systems. I've always been on the lookout for cool handhelds. Probably started with some leapfrog devices I had when I was a kid.
Some of the more interesting ones include a piboy. A raspberry pi 4 stuffed into a gameboy dmg like shell to emulate games. More recently I've been very into my analogue Pocket. I play a ton of stuff on that as it can accurately recreate a ton of older systems. I'm also quite interested in getting a playdate at some point, but have yet to justify it.
I also have some modded GBC and GBA systems. With USB c charging and nicer screens
Nice :3
I do software emulation too. I used to want a GBA as a kid, little me would have loved emulation :3
I haven’t thought about my leapfrog in years! Was a fun little thing.
The Piboy looks great! I’ll have to put it on a list of gift ideas for my partner
Fair warning. If you are looking at the piboy by experimental pi, their website has been mostly down for months now. They seem to have abandoned the project :(
Dang, maybe I’ll go for the Analogue Pocket instead. Thanks for the tip!
That's an FPGA thing. Youneed carts for it. If you into ROMs I can recommend most new ambernic stuff
Now those are fancy! I really like the joystick support.
Related, do you have any recs for an SP-style emulation handheld? I love the clamshell for tossing in my backpack
