   Honestly, I stopped tracking new Game Boy releases more than 20 years ago. But with a renewed love for retro gaming came a wonderful discovery: indie developers have kept the Game Boy scene alive and well. This is just the tip of the iceberg!

     Now I REALLY want to get an Analogue Pocket and start collecting a physical Game Boy collection again (long story but my retro console collection is gone).

     There are other options I'm aware of like the ModRetro Chromatic, but I'm not sure how to feel about that one.

     @trezzer Oh noooooo why did you remind me about that? 🤣
     Honestly, it was sort of on my peripheral radar but I ignored it when it first launched because I knew it would be a money pit.

     (I'm actually grateful you reminded me about it)

     @killyourfm Have you had a look at Evercade? I really enjoy it as a way of getting plug and play physical versions of games from a variety of platforms - both new and old titles.

     @trezzer Ha! I'm watching a review of that right now. This is one very appealing thing about Evercade, is that the entire ecosystem supports the same cartridges.

     @killyourfm There’s a bartop arcade edition called Alpha with optional Sanwa parts too, now.

     @killyourfm There's even a cheaper Sony PSP handheld market I hear!
