It's a thing that people do. I do wish I understood why certain shit goes viral but I'm not a marketer. I guess it's probably like forcing a meme?

Your smartphone isn't retro, but people talk about emulation here all the time

>> No.5745327

>>5745318
Emulation has been a thing since before smartphones, young one.

>> No.5745335

>>5745318
The device used to emulate doesn't need to be retro, it's the specific content of what you're playing. PS1 games are retro whether or not they're played on a PS2, but the PS2 itself is not retro. I know this is complicated, but I'll talk you through it. Everything will be okay anon.

>> No.5745348

why would you want to play awful gba games if not because "meh. atleast I can play it on the bus/plane/train/dilation-station."

It augments the ability to play /vr/ games in a way it couldn't before. It's tangentially related. By your definition, we shouldn't talk about rPis or that Neo Geo mini arcade.

I can see where you're coming from, but it pretty specifically reminds me of an Alien facehugger and stuff like pic related.

You literally aren't doing anything negative to the GBA if you do the standalone case, if you do the install on the LCD screen then yes you are losing an LCD screen but again you don't need to do that thus not messing up a perfectly good GBA.

That has nothing to do with the point being made.

It's literally a GBA with HDMI out. There's nothing new about this at all.
