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.

I've been looking for a nice #DSi LL case (or sleeve rather) since it arrived the other day.
So I'm sure I am one of very few doing so in 2025

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

The Ayn Odin 2 Mini takes the cake for pure lookalike though! I love their design coming straight from the Vita

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!

Damn. That's on me for poor phrasing!
The Witcher Ronin, your work was a bestiary in the back of the book:
Truly, beautiful work it was. I really appreciate your art, and thanks for the reply! Quite an honor :)

I sidle up (case in point, doing so right now), leave a comment, then disappear.

Oh man. I've played so many times! Possible my favourite Steam Deck game ever!
I love how they made Lovecraft's unsettling atmosphere seem somehow cozy! Also inspired me to read The Fisherman :)
(...and yep, I'll be playing again!)

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!

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.

You've absolutely sold me on it!
I love Hades and really love the Ninja Turtles, but am a solo gamer, so if it still plays well not on co-op...I'm in!
Thank you for that detailed response :)
