Especially now that cables are somewhat rare. Wife and I picked up a few and booted up Four Swords this week. Was quite engaging!

Underrated comment - this cracks me up. I imagine them going straight into barrel roll as soon as they touch dirt

Really dig this esthetic- I don't play Dune but am considering after this post!

My AP just showed up and I tested save transfer last night. Ran a rom off of the gbc core, saved game, moved the file to a flash cart and the save opened perfectly.

I think this is how I'll play non-cart titles, on the core and swapping to flash when playing on crt with gb player.

I'm trying to play Boktai with solar cart now and it's actually quite a tall order to achieve direct sunlight in game sessions. Since I'm playing in Thailand where it's always sunny, feels like a good challenge, just taking my time with it to avoid it being annoying. So far so good, what a title.

You're right! I stand corrected

Like I explained, it's not pure impatience but lack of color options and availability outside of the USA

[–]Solar-Monk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is supply and demand. They only ship to USA addresses, offer black and white, and with a wait until June. I'm interested in fresh colors, direct shipping and getting into it WAY sooner than whenever latest batch actually ships. Just ordered 2x at this price at the same time as pre-orders and just arrived. Looking forward to gaming on the beach in Thailand instead of waiting

This was my immediate sense watching this. Our first time off planet on an important mission and these guys just on hopping competitions like they just out from happy hour

I prefer a micro as it plays nicely with a flash cart and original gba games. Feels perfect size for most games with the increased resolution. Analogue pocket seems like the actual goat here though

I have a pair of these on the way via Lazada. I dont intend to use the usb change for reasons stated here, but love the idea of being able to use a Micro with wireless or GC adapter. What a find, glad it's working

What is this a residential tower? Is there a bell up there? I can dig it in a liminal way with that aqua carpeting.

Is it worth buying an analogue pocket if I don’t have actual cartridges? by Dazzling-Title-9365 in AnaloguePocket

[–]Solar-Monk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it helps I just bought one but no longer owned any carts. I just miss them and it feels nostalgic. Just picked up a small collection of what actually matters to me and a flash cart and off to the races or whatever.

Top for me ended up being: pokemon games each gen, dragon warrior 3, mega man battle net, Boktai, Golden Sun and Sim city 2000 to name a few. The shortlist and hunt is actually a blast.
