Did you get one?

[Anonymous No.10286286]

No I got a playdate instead

[Anonymous No.10286304]

>>10286286
The playdate is cute but it looks like a toy that would have no games and would be uncomfortable to hold.

gayboys are overrated pieces of crap played by autistic manchilds in search of LE FREAKING NUTSTALGIA and nothing else, boring games and shitty no lights display thats all it is

Dk 94 mogs everything on all of those handhelds, though the NEC is a beautiful handheld.

Some of the best games ever made were exclusive to Game Boy.

The Pocket also plays games from all of the handhelds you just showed.

Can you actually come up with better games? Metroid 2, dk 94, sml 1/2, warioland, dkl, final fantasy adventure and ff legends, la, balloon kid, pokemon, Kirby, megaman, oddworld, legend of the river king, game and watch gallery, pokemon, blades of steel, etc...

[Anonymous No.10286404]

>>10286384
Those are all great but don't forget Zelda (oracles and awakening), mole mania, Kirby (all), Heiankyo Alien, Pokemon TCG, Kirby and pokemon pinball, harvest moon, Pokemon puzzle challenge, harvest moon 3, that Shin Megami Tensei card game, dragon quest monsters, and Tetris dx

>All shitty console ports
Sheesh that's maximum cope. While I agree those are fairly good games, they are shit in comparison with their console counterparts, where that's not the case on Gameboy. Shinobi doesnt mog shit, it's such a bad port, walk around like fucking toki. Not even on e. Looks fabulous though. Sadly the game gear went the way of the Amiga, all style no substance.

I don't even understand what his argument is supposed to be. Game Gear and Game Boy both have some good games but the Pocket plays both of them so why even argue about it?

And shitting on the handheld ports is disingenuous, sometimes they have their own personality - like Ristar.

[Anonymous No.10286512]

>>10286495
point is the gameboy is overrated and theres better options

[Anonymous No.10286516]

I have my original GBA with the backlit IPS mod with the controllable backlight, it lasts a full 12-15 hours on a pair of the black Eneloops.

Why the FUCK would I want this garbage?

Can anything except an authentic GBA, SP, or Micro?

You couldnt even name one game. Do you live in Copenhagen?

I had both as a kid, the only thing the Game Gear was good for was burning through batteries, and watching TV with the TV tuner cart.

I have an original black pocket, the clear funtastic versions are fuckin sick man but I'm not about to double down on a second one for even more money
it's a great product though, I wish the company wasn't like an Apple-esque jerk off bunch of bullshit. Just do like a bog standard open preorder window, its not rocket science.
I do laugh at all the scalpers doing presales not realizing that Ebay is gonna report all of that as income to the IRS this year.

thats cool man but the pocket does a lot more than just play GB/GBA games, so you sound a little silly saying stuff like that in a pocket thread
still cool that you have that, straight up - it sounds great

[Anonymous No.10286573]

>>10286281
This same thread has been made every day since the announcement.
Can we report this for advertising now?

[Anonymous No.10286575]

>>10286548
None of those are original titles. Name one thats not previously on a console. There is nothing like pokemon on game gear. I enjoy the game gear, I had a small collection at one time. It's not better than the Gameboy. My original post only has og Gameboy compatible games, I didnt even touch the gbc exclusives.

[Anonymous No.10286589]

you mean like the green connector that came with Fire Red? it's compatible but you have to remove the little hooks to get it to fit

it has a functioning link connector but no idea if it would work with those dumb things. You could just use a cable.

Go back to /v/
>>10286516
It has plenty. Godzilla, for instance.
>>10286521
Because unlike your Game Boy that you destroyed with an ancient Chinese cell phone screen that tears like nobody's business, the Pocket actually has a nice screen.
>>10286523
As in with the wireless adapter? It should; link cables work just fine. But you will have to either modify the wireless adapter or make an extension cable in order to connect it because it doesn't have a spot for those hooks in the bottom.

If it doesn't work it's just basically a GBA with shittier battery life, a proprietary and probably expensive battery that you probably can't even replace yourself, etc.

Hard pass.

[Anonymous No.10286658]

>>10286553
There's no point if you already have the black. I wanted the black one originally but it's been sold out for ages and I didn't want to pay $700 for it. I figured I'd try my hands at getting the translucent ones and it worked out.

The glow in the dark one looked dumb though.


Fuck analogue and their business practices, but at the same time it's fun to watch people freak out on Twitter about how they weren't able to get one. They're making shit up now like "the site crashed, it's not fair" when that literally didn't happen.


>>10286598
I'm the op. It's not an ad, I got one and I was wondering if anyone else here got one. Not every post you don't like is an ad, retard.

We just told you it does work, moron.
>it's just basically a GBA with shittier battery life
This plays way more than just GB/GBA games.
>a proprietary and probably expensive battery that you probably can't even replace yourself
It's just a standard battery. If it goes bad, pop it open and install a new one. Do you have zero understanding of how electronics work?

[Anonymous No.10286670]

>>10286660
It's a retarded argument considering that the Pocket plays both.

[Anonymous No.10286712]

>We just told you it does work
Nope, you said it fits, and "should" work. But I didn't see any evidence of it actually working. You know where else it fits?

[Anonymous No.10286716]

Also tell me of this "standard battery," what connectors does it use? Part number? Capacity? Does it have onboard protection or does the charging circuit in the device provide protection? Are you a bot?
