Things you recently bought or got

A GB player with the startup disc. Nice! For some reason most of them come without.
Still want to kick my own ass for not ordering an bunch of those discs when Nintendo of Europe still offered replacements for 8 Euros a piece.

I noticed! I found both of them separated for a good price so I got both. I have been looking for another job lately (kinda though in Italy) but honestly I couldn't deny myself a bit of pleasure since I had some extra money off my pocket.

That's the best way. If you buy the disc without the player and then the player alone, it's cheaper than both together.

Strangely, collectors are hoarding the discs but not the player. I brought last year the whole collection from a fellow collector, and it came with 7 discs and just one player.

I paid around 110 for both, which is not a bad price since both go for about 130+ EUR total

I still get occasionally tempted by the idea of a GC&GB Player. Idk if it would be worth it tho considering I play handheld so much more than TV these days.

Latest thing to arrive in the post is a 16MB flash chip to upgrade my Game & Watch so it can play more Zelda games

I had several GB Players for GCN years ago as I came across a seller who'd sell them via a listing on Amazon that was advertised for a different product. It was good while it lasted. Sold them all way back.

Personally, I love the console design of the GCN, but the Wii is just more convenient to plug and play GCN games, with GCN controller/memory card ports, and hacking it. Of course, the component cable video quality is nowhere near as good as GCN's component cable that had a chip which improved the video quality and I'm okay with that.

The Wii U can play GCN games, yet to do so it has to be modded. Nintendo could have made it the console to natively and legally play three generations in one.

RIP, We You.

If you find a good deal, I totally recommend it. It feels like your gameboy have a dock just like the switch, it's amazing!

Problem is the price nowadays. A full HDMI set up will hurt your wallet. It will be the GB Player + disk (or exploitable game or raspberry pico) + HDMI digital out + and snes controller + adapter (or the hori controller or the new clone of the hori controller).

It will cost way more than a switch, way more than a dockable Chinese handheld, so there is a decision there...

I have no idea what is it for, but it got a circuit board (a SBC I presume) and a screen, so it must be cool.

D.I.R.E. - neat little toy. Just need to do circuit board for it and fetch some little bits and bobs and then it's soldering time.

Oh yeah, I got a whole Arduino setup for Pokémon automation, just in case.
