what is the point of modding this thing, god damn
there's so many superior options, i cannot even

>>8702694
The Game & Watch Gallery games would be very appropriate.

>>8703074
you are definitely right. however no one should deny how fucking classy the G&W design really is.

there are bootleg cases for Raspi projects but they dont look as ggod as this.

>>8702694
DQ3 GBC would be pretty cool.

>>8703074
OP here. I modded it because it has a fantastic D-pad, fits in my pocket, charges over usb C, and has save states + speed up function. It is way better than my Retroid Pocket 2. I can't emphasize how good this D-pad feels. And like other anon said, it just looks classy.

>>8703461
you could just put whatever dpad you like on something else, are you taking crazy pills?

>>8703487
Really? Explain

>>8702694
>(Mario, Zelda, DK, Kirby, Pokemon Blue + Perfect Crystal, tetris)
souless

>>8702694
how did u mod it? i thought it was impossible

How'd you mod it?
I could google this but I'm curious how OP did

>>8704440
raspberry pi, leads

soldering a bigger storage chip on (from 1mb to 16mb)

>>8703074
He spent $50 on a largely useless piece of plastic and got mad at everyone saying it'd just wind up on a shelf.
Now he can put roms on it before putting it on a shelf.

It's a huge pain in the ass and basically is memory gimped. I remember buying it when it came out, with the intention of modding it, but when I realized it was designed specifically so that it was impossible to be modded I just returned it. I should have held on to it though, I forgot how retardly easy it is to resell Nintendo bullshit for free money.

>playing handhelds outside your home
do people really?

>>8704794
It's really not. You just need to use a raspberry pi and leads. No soldering required unless you want to replace the chip.

Zelda version has 4mb which will fit all the gbc zelda games. Mario version only has 1mb so you'll have to swap out the chip (there are ebay services) or deal with only having a few NES games.

>>8705336
Building the software is a pain in the ass because some retard was shilling his guide all over reddit saying that is was so good that you could simply paste commands into the terminal. But he had errors in his own guide. I've been some bucks of friends to do this for them. Right now I'm putting an STLINK in a zelda unit for a guy. Now that's a fucking pain. Like switch modchip on steroids.

>>8705340
Why would you put an STLINK in it? Like I said, raspberry pi and leads. The v2 of the mario guide had some errors in it. I used a combo of that and the link guide. And some help on the stacksmashing discord. This was my first raspberry pi / micro soldering project and it really wasn't that bad. I'm kinda retarded and I figured it out on a Saturday afternoon and evening.

>>8702694
>What would you include?
Nothing. The only thing these turds are good for is reselling to retarded faggots

>>8703074
everything MUST be modded/hacked/jailbroken
this is known

>>8705425
It's being modded for a customet who can't solder. He wants to be able to flash games to it whenever he wants.

>>8705340
Anything is a pain in the ass when you're retarded and just following instructions from a redditard who's only slightly less retarded than you are.

>>8705425
Dude. It's like debating what kind of flies are best for a turd. And then insisting the flies have to be retarded.

>>8706487
Nah you're just a retarded faggot that needs to be spoonfed. Kys

>>8702694

lol, I still remember people calling this unhackable because of no direct entry point, no port or anything.
Now play Doom on it to complete the ritual.

>>8708040
Hit a little too close to home did I

>>8706487
Not retarded laddie, but nice projection. I'm insulting that reddit tard for putting garbage out as if he had checked what he wrote.

>>8704784
I use mine every single day as a clock that I leave on my bench. Its the most interesting clock you can get.

>>8702694
Is it possible to mod the clock part of it. Would be cool to make a kirby theme since I don't think Nintendo will make another one for a while.

>>8708067
once again you are confusing "difficult" with "impossible".
the story of your life, I assume.

>>8702694
can it run Linux or a UNIX-like OS?

>>8708067
I don't think any people said that. I'm sure some subhuman zoom zooms did though. It was hacked on day 1. You take the back off and the debug port is right there. As clear as the daylight shining through the void between those zoomers ears.

>>8709119
Sure. I've got linux running on much less powerful ARMs.

>>8703074
>what is the point of modding this thing
Cuz its design is great. Every Game&Watch like bootlegs that exist out there are garbage.

>>8712160
this, there are custom G&W-like shells for the raspi, and portables barely based on the G&W, but not a single one is as classy as the original.

if the raspi makers were to stop halfassing shit up and actually make a proper G&W handheld case for the raspi-zero at least, modding the new G&Ws will be downright pointless.

The input lag on this piece of shit made me drop it.

I play on my top loader

>>8712428
There is almost 0 input lag on this retard

>>8714703
sauce

Looks kinda cool desu

>>8716767
I agree. Link version > Mario version though

>>8712302
>G&W-like shells
What?!

>>8714703
>source:my ass

>>8718154
Maybe you're just bad at games, so sad, many such cases!

>>8718165
>Maybe i'm just a coping zoomie bullshitter
Maybe?

>>8718074
guess i exaggerated a bit, more like Game boy micro shells.

Metal Gear Ghost Babel

All the DX versions of the GB games are based

One of the Mega Man gameboy games at least
