&gt; This reveal might seem out of nowhere given that most people know me for my work on virtual reality technology and lethal autonomous weapons systems<p>Indeed.

~90USD more than the Analogue Pocket, with less platforms supported? (and no backing up carts to the device etc)

As someone who&#x27;s been considering building a custom Game Boy Color to replace my childhood one that was recently stolen, I have to admit this has grabbed my attention.<p>I don&#x27;t know anything about FPGA emulation. What, if anything, is the difference between playing on this and a bona-fide GBC board? It sounds like the screen is better, but optimized for correctness rather than just throwing a high-res IPS at the problem and calling it a day.<p>Interested to see any more thoughts on buying a new backwards-compatible device versus building&#x2F;upgrading an original with newer parts.

I&#x27;d forgotten about Palmer, even though his presence was large a decade ago.<p>This seems like a cool project -- it looks like he must have gotten an official license for Tetris too.<p>When you&#x27;re a billionaire, it makes it a lot easier to hack around with toys, especially when you need to custom make a brand new LCD from scratch!

Very appealing until I see 3xAA batteries. Maybe this bothers me more than it should, but 2 or 4 batteries are just better.
