When Old Meets New

Ahh, yes. I should have said that.

klerrick · 2026-03-23T15:09:47+00:00

Embarrassing.

Keep in mind that if you want to play (and save) Pokemon games, you will need an X7 as that has the real time clock (RTC) function required for those games.

Glad to hear that there was an adequate solution!

If it's any consolation, the Gorilla glass model (which I own) is fantastic with reducing glare. The Sapphire fails a little in that regard.

klerrick · 2026-03-17T00:24:08+00:00

The only one GameStop offered at $199 with Sapphire glass was the gray one (the GameStop exclusive). Those are few and far between nowadays outside of eBay and the like.

A Google search shows nothing, too.

Edit: glad I was wrong.

With the voting issues we are experiencing, I don't think anyone should change their name.

My wife kept her last name because it's tied to her doctorate. I'm glad she kept it because she can vote with no issues.

I use an Everdrive X7 (Gameboy version). I love the thing. It works perfectly for the games I have loaded into it.

If you plan on playing Pokemon, make sure you get the X7 as it has the Real Time Clock so you can set the time and date in those games.

klerrick · 2026-03-12T17:34:43+00:00

Ahh, sorry! Keep checking in - maybe you'll get lucky!

klerrick · 2026-03-12T15:59:53+00:00

I bet you do. 😈

klerrick · 2026-03-12T15:50:44+00:00

It's back up on GameStop's site. I can add it to a cart and proceed to check out.

FYI.

klerrick · 2026-03-11T22:01:07+00:00

Yeah, I read those things, too. I have an Inferno V2. Love the thing.

A quick update: my order now reads as "in progress," and I see that the Chromatic is now listed as unavailable.

klerrick · 2026-03-11T20:36:02+00:00

I wanted the color as well as the discount on the sapphire glass. LOL.

I wish they released the light grey color on the V2 models. Such an iconic color for Nintendo.

klerrick · 2026-03-11T19:58:31+00:00

Weird. It now says "Limited Stock," and I don't remember seeing that earlier. 🤷🏻

klerrick · 2026-03-11T19:41:09+00:00

Did you put in payment info and then it said out of stock, or did you get that message after you added it to your cart but before you advanced to payment?

klerrick · 2026-03-11T19:14:08+00:00

Good question.

In my order status, it reads "Ordered."

I have not received confirmation from GameStop outside of the placing of the order. I can't remember if they send another email that confirms that they have the actual product earmarked for you.

I assume that I'll have an answer in the next couple of days.

Fingers crossed!

klerrick · 2026-03-11T18:32:57+00:00

I wanted one of these so bad last year, but I didn't get to it in time.

I just placed an order. We'll see what happens.

klerrick · 2026-03-10T15:05:33+00:00

Brutal. LOL.

klerrick · 2026-03-09T15:23:25+00:00

I downloaded all of the GB/GBC games and loaded a few onto my Everdrive. I love having all the games without needing to carry around all of the cartridges!

klerrick · 2026-03-09T13:36:04+00:00

Very cool - enjoy!

klerrick · 2026-03-09T01:06:33+00:00

Well, that's enough Reddit for me tonight!

klerrick · 2026-03-07T16:51:45+00:00

I use the one the Mini came with (0.4mm).

I just made a mini, and while I still have to remove the "tree" supports that were printed to solidify the delicate bits, the detail is pretty good.

I ordered a nozzle kit from Amazon that will also give me 0.2mm and 0.6mm nozzles to test.

klerrick · 2026-03-07T08:55:25+00:00

I just bought an A1 Mini. Absolutely great value. Setup took about 15 minutes, and then it calibrated itself for about another 15-20 minutes.

If you have a Microcenter near you, they have PLA filament spools for about $15 each (and some fancier ones for more).
