I dont think it had a physical release, but Pocket Card Jockey is a fun and charmingly odd fusion of card solitaire/horse racing simulator from Gamefreak (Pokémon devs)
I love this idea and can't wait to see how it turns out. When you're ready for beta testers, sign me up!
I can finally enjoy a feminine playthrough of Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. 💘

In addition to the vastly improved graphics, textures, & framerates, this port has every quality of life enhancement imaginable. I'm in awe of the wizards at PortMaster, Harbour Masters, & the modding community.

Thank you for the compliment. I really needed it today ☺️ I've also now shared on Instagram (and tagged)
This is incredible!!! Have you shared it on Instagram?
I guess this is how I cope with #GhostsCBS being on summer break.
My girlfriend & I have a tradition of naming the tomato plants in each year's garden. This year's theme is the US version of the sitcom, Ghosts! 👻
So, I modeled & 3D printed some custom nameplates.

Thank you for sharing your fierceness and growth with us all. We will forever, "Call you Jiggly" 💃
This weekend's handheld project: I got Moonlight streaming working on my Anbernic Linux handheld. It can stream games from my Windows gaming desktop (like cloud game streaming). #WBIC #Palia #Anbernic
It's a fun writing concept that I will revisit.
Unfortunately the Go Color 7 doesn't have a digitizer for true stylus input like other models. I did try a capacitive (powered) stylus and it's just not worth it.
I've liked the idea of those "eInk destraction free type-writers" for getting out my thoughts at night, but was always put off by the price. So I'm trying out the concept with my #OnyxBoox Go Color 7 eReader/Android tablet with a BT keyboard.
The retro game night I hosted at work was a hit. I brought an NES (with 13" CRT for Zapper compatibility), N64, Dreamcast, SNES mini, & Genesis Mini.
Well that went poorly. Ended up breaking a couple pins so it needs a new part. This connector was shit anyway and not OEM after all.
In prep for #RetroVideoGame day, I'm repairing / restoring my NES's original 72 pin connector. Hopefully it's the cause of my constant cart load errors / blinking red lights
I recently upgraded this into my dream #ipod. This iPod Mini (Gen2) used a 4GB, compact flash, spinning disk hard drive for storage. Since CF cards are still made (although more expensive than SD) it was a drop in replacement. Now it has a solid state 128GB, a new battery and #rockbox open source fw
#3dprinting really is like having a "plastics only" replicator from Trek. I found this Game & Watch for cheap. And for $0.03 in material, it has a working battery cover.
So I found a 1983 Game & Watch handheld for $15 that was missing the battery door.
Well, it may take more work than expected to refurbish it. It's having a hardware issue that I can't pinpoint until full disassembly. 🤞for a loose ribbon cable.

Mario for sure!
👾👾👾 Great suggestion on Space Invaders. Although I don't think there's a native version for 3DS. Not impossible, but I'd need more tinkering time than I want to spend.
Solid choice. 100% getting preloaded
I'm hosting a retro game event at work so I picked up a 2DS I'll refurb as a prize. I'm also going to load it with the hShop.

What dozen or so games should I preload for maximum nostalgia?
