Indeed. And that’s not even taking account those discs are much harder to get a hold of and/or more expensive than the Gameboy Player itself!

Nice

Oh absolutely! That’s the killer app for the Gameboy Player IMHO. Properly felt like a return to the SNES days of 2D platforming, but with improved tech and quality of life. Love it.

Lol. I’ve only been following this from a distance because I don’t have any real interest in Birdsite anymore, but hadn’t appreciated that they themselves may have caused the increase in API requests that cause them to introduce rate limits. That’s hilarious.

Big shout out to the Gameboy Player add-on for the GameCube, and the equally brilliant Game Boy Interface which vastly improves the video quality.

The Mastodon instance I’m on has blocked all known Meta IPs as a preventative measure. So I imagine some admins will federate and some won’t, and users will be free to join the instance that they wish to.

Nice. Thank you!

After the issues with 0.17 server support last week I’ve been swapping between Liftoff, Thunder and Connect for Lemmy. But Liftoff is the one I keep coming back too. I’ve seen people touting wefwef which is a progressive web app, but the fonts are tiny for my old eyes and I can’t see anyway to adjust it.

Doesn’t work on Jerboa ☹️ At least I now know why my feed seems to be filled with these html image links.

Definitely. Nothing really caught my attention in terms of the used retro games, but got chatting to Alastair from Lowtek games who was really nice, and just loved the look of the blue cart. Plus any excuse to fire up the old front loader!
