My little plastic shell arrived for my #Nintendo #Gameboy Advance SP's box, so now I can protect this little fellow's carboard home forever more when it lives on my shelf. Super happy with it!

I do miss the old ways of tech: built to last, rather than be planned obsolescence.

Amazing little Japanese #GameboyAdvance arrived for my collection!

This one still has its tiny box (smaller than the Western one we got), and the original instructions, and is in great shape.

#RetroGaming just IS #Handheld Gaming to me, the old #Nintendo Gameboys and DS line were just fantastic

Another old, tired and broken-screen'd Gameboy Advance.

Time to take him apart and think about what to do: replace the screen with an IPS, change the shell? Maybe a USB-C battery mod?

#retrogaming is my happy place.

Retro handhelds and emulation as a whole have just come so far.

I love the Miyoo Mini (mine is a V2): The size of a deck of cards but so nice to hold and play, changable themes and emulating all my favourite old games.

Miyoo really deserve the crown for this one, design-wise its perfection!

...while looking through my drawers an old, old friend appeared.

Yet again just loving Nintendo's designs and hardware. Gameboy Advance SP hasn't ever had that clamshell design replicated as well as they did it!

I can say, if a company requires me to join a Discord server for support? I'm not going to use your service, support your product, play your game etc.

Its a closed system, unscrapeable and NOT good in the long run when information just disappears into a black hole there.

No thanks.

There really isn't a better deal in gaming, when Prime Gaming gives so many incredible games for free with a Prime subscription.

Having the GOG copy of Dredge there to claim today is amazing.
#creepy and #cozy!

...to think I used to think this was the peak of tech back in my younger says!

One thing is for sure, vintage Apple iBook computers sure had incredible hardware design. Is this one old enough to be considered vintage?

I love the new era of gaming, I use Xbox's Game Pass every single day, but I wish Amazon's Luna would come to Australia and be supported here.

I have a large GOG library, and would love the option of streaming those titles!

C'mon Amazon, bring Luna to Australia!

So just opted for the two months of Crunchyroll, has #bluesky got any #anime recommendations for me?

Its been a few years since I've had Crunchyroll, so I'm sure I've missed a ton!

The struggle of loving #rally racing and rally games, searching the word each day and just seeing American politics for 95% of the results.

Ugh. Not my kind of rally!

Between Xbox Game Pass, Epic Games' weekly giveaways and my Prime Gaming subscription giving me so many GOG and Epic titles each week...my gaming has never been so set for titles to play at a moment's notice.

Playing Aliens: Dark Descent on my Xbox Series X thanks to Game Pass right now!

Old broken Nintendo Gameboy Advance from Japan: now fixed up to be a bright glow in the dark version!

Though this one...boy oh boy is that glow an intense light from the shell!

Satisfying, though.

Okay...time to start watching Arcane season 2 tonight

Another refurbished Nintendo Gameboy Advance completed!

Bought a wrecked one with a broken screen from Japan and gave it a new shell and IPS backlit screen.

I love this part of retro gaming: giving broken consoles a new lease on life!

This morning's sleepy little fellow passing by me. Echidna time!

That's the thing about Australia, not EVERYTHING can kill you!

Some Australian (Aussie) animals for your morning

All fellows who live around me

Living on a small island, animals are my constant companions!
