Fake video game cartridges are widespread these days. Can this awesome USB-C gadget tell the difference? I took over 70 photos so you can see for yourself. www.theverge.com/games/902910...

Holiday season reminder: slow down. There’s something about pixel art + a campfire that instantly brings you back. FFIII on SNES, quiet night, no rush, just vibing. What’s your favorite “,campfire” retro game? #retrogaming #snes #pixelart

We are back! #C64 www.commodore.net The first official Commodore 64 in over 30 years is here - a faithful recreation of the original motherboard on FPGA hardware. HDMI, WiFi, USB, but compatible with every existing cartridge and peripheral. Not an emulator - a recreation. Same price as my first $299

A while back I replaced the capacitors in my old Sega #gamegear. The system came alive with sound and control but the LCD was dead. I finally replaced the screen with a modern IPS made specifically for this system thanks to Retrosix out of the U.K. #retrogaming #retrogame

Checking this page obsessively for 2 days, hoping it changes status, probably not good for my mental health. If I don't get one, that just means fate has decided that the future of gaming is truly #retrogaming #retrogames 😜!!! #nintendo #nintendoswitch #switch2 #hopeful #gaming

So I love my Miyoo Mini plus, I got a few years ago, but recently got my Miyoo Flip v2 and within 20-30 opens the famous Miyoo hinge-gate also happened. Really liked this SP size and form, but at least Miyoo letting me return it and refund. See y’all at V3😉 #retrogaming #gba

Replaced capacitors. Sound and controls are now working but unfortunately the LCD is likely finished. Adjusting brightness to high causes it to power off. I'm looking into a screen replacement. #gamegear
