I always felt like owning one, but then I remember most of the games are text-heavy japanese only. I really only know Klonoa that'd be worth playing.

Not him, but probably because of how stretched the screen gets on a 16 inches+ monitor which kinda forces you to use some weird filter to compensate. I'm ok with running it on a mobile device, though,

nothing is weird about a border, ever heard about super gameboy? and you can always sit back a little from the screen.
>I'm ok with running it on a mobile device, though,
i mostly play gb on dsi, but some games like revenge of the gator have minor inaccuracies in sound and sometimes even graphics, and psp isn't any better. i hope they'll make decent emulators for vita. and if by mobile device you meant phones and shit, well that's even more tasteless than pc.

I don't think you understand what a filter is.

Define tasteless. If somehow you're referring to touch controls, you can just buy an attachable controller for smartphones or a gaming device, like a Shield, GPD, JXD, you name it.

i'll have to agree with that. still pc is fine for handheld emulation, if someone doesn't like big pixels he can hook it up to crt pretty easily and pretend it's a sgb or something. i don't know if there was some way to play wonderswan on a console.

The crystal screen is better but honestly the color screen is perfectly fine. The FF looks classy and crystals look tacky. If I had to pick one I'd go with the FF. But I went with both. The FF was a little over $10. The crystal was more. Crystals aren't that common. FFs are common as fuck. Every shop here has stacks of them. Loose translucent colors are like a buck. I got half a drawer full. Other half is NGP/C.

In what alternate timeline.

People are starting to wake up to the fact that Nintendo has no real creative developers left (if they ever had any to begin with) and can only rely on shitty hardware gimmicks which scare off third-party support, further ruining their credibility in the industry.

I swear, the Nintendo fanboys/shills on /vr/ are pathetic.

Correlation does not mean causation. Lol, abusing statistics to say what you want doaent mean anything and anyone who has completed even one course in stats knows how fucking stupid you and your graph are. Hahaha, nice try though. People like you have been predicting Nintendo's doom for years, and just like the people who keep predicting the burst of the retro bubble, it ain't gonna happen.
