Hey y’all. First post on Lemmy!

I want to go back and play my favorite GameBoy games, and want to find the best way to do this on a handheld device. I have lots of cartridges, but ROM support would be nice! I’ve looked at Steamdeck but I’m not sold on it yet… the Analogue Pocket looks lush but expensive. The Miyoo Mini Plus looks promising, and the RG353V almost looks too good to be true. I specifically want to play GameBoy and GameBoy Color games, bonus points if it can do GameBoy Advance.

What say y’all?

    I didn’t consider using newer Nintendo hardware to play these old games. They definitely have “that feel” to the controls. Any good websites to check out or keywords to search for to help figure this out?

      If you decide to go the 3DS route and you already have one, make sure to not let it connect to wifi before you hack it. The final update Nintendo released not too long ago disables the ability to jailbreak.

      If you want to use a 3ds check out this guide Then search for “gameboy on 3ds” on google. mGBA, Injection and open agb firm should come up. gbatemp is a good ressource.
