A couple of days ago, I posted some initial thoughts and rough testing of the FunnyPlaying GBC.
I decided to write up a full blog post with some additional details and potential alternatives for playing Game Boy and Game Boy Color on modern hardware.
"The modder has taken a broken N64 controller and given it a new purpose: playing Game Boy, Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance games. We're talking physical carts here, too – this pad contains a fully-functional GBA console, and isn't based on emulation...."
Also #TIL, you could connect to a remote #SMB share right from the native Files app on your #iPhone. Did just that and copied over some BIOS files and ROMs, now I'm off to the races.
I was today years old when I realized these sprites that create route borders in the generation 1 Pokémon games are not giant boulders and are, in fact, shrubs.
My reality has been shattered, I am unwell. Words of encouragement would be appreciated in these trying times.

Shantae went great I learned a new dance she can now turn into a monkey the monkey can climb walls and jump higher. Check out my #Twitch stream and please boost this post as I'm a #SmallStreamer

Shantae will take me awhile especially since I have pledged not to use a walkthrough if it gets too frustrating I will but right now enjoying it. Check out my #Twitch stream and please boost this post as I'm a #SmallStreamer

Here's my physical Pokémon game collection. My first was actually a Pokémon TCG cartridge, but I traded it away to a childhood friend many years ago. Among the GBC games, Silver and Crystal need new save batteries. Blue, to my shock, still holds a save.
Also pictured: my EZ Flash Omega and Acekard 2i flash carts with many Pokémon games on them. The rest of my collection is entirely digital. Do you still have your old cartridges?
