Hope you consider FIDO/WebAuthn 2FA support (such as Yubikeys) which are wayyyy more resistant to phishing due to being domain locking by the browser unlike TOTP, Email, or any other temporary 2FA codes which people can be socially engineered to divulge to attackers.
Email 2FA won't fix the problem

I see, it's emulator based functionality and the faux registers are placed into echo RAM.

What is the mouse interaction at 0:25? Some kind of emulated pass-through, or an SGB feature?

Even the Game Boy doesn't read all the bits at once. It reads two sets of 4 bits separately (though directly from a register- not via serial shift on a wire as SNES, etc). And there is some intentional delay for the inputs to settle. But as Upsilandre says, the timing is very fast.

After your last thread I wrote a small gameboy program (inspired by "Telling LYs" by @pineight.com ) to make a button press scanline timing histogram.
My understanding is some emulators may inject entropy into button press timing since that may be used for RNG seeding.

btw- I am with you in spirit. I've tried to make the case for unsweetened ice cream to people. It doesn't go over well. 😂

Unfortunately, less-sweet is just decidedly unpopular.

Ahhh...if only I'd know earlier. 😅 Would have mentioned my just released 4 player snake game for the Game Boy & Mega Duck.
Good to see some MegaDuck coverage on here though!

Enjoyed it as a kid on the DMG. I think it was one of the first games that felt like it had atmosphere to it.

Great thread!
If emulators only poll for input once per frame, the same aspect of timing alignment seems it could add up to an additional ~frame worth of input lag (in addition to operating system and controller lag).

Ohhhh and it happened to Ferrante a year ago too. They did get it resolved in their favor.

I noticed that even though the last response from Etsy mentioned it was their final decision and they would not reconsider, I noticed the help ticket was still open. So after a few days I decided to try once more to explain why I am not pirating anything and that I have permission to sell the games.

I have been banned from Etsy!
After 2 years, over 700 5 star reviews, Etsy has decided that the items I sell are prohibited. This includes all the hand-made chiptune gear, and all homebrew games.
So… I built my own store instead!

Do you know if anyone has built an alternative consolizer type device which plugs directly into the GB Player part so it could be used without the GameCube?
It would sort of defeat the purpose but also be a cool project.
