GameBoy

If you ever wondered what it takes to make a custom GameBoy system? To add lights, color, and personality to one of the most beloved handhelds of all time. Roarke is the name of a man who has a lot of love for the GameBoy and shows it by modding …

The Retron 5 used to be a household name. Until people realized that it had a bogus set of wireless controllers and, oh yeah, featured a non-licensed emulator. Fast forward to 2019, the Retron 5 is barely talked about any longer. YouTube videos about it are getting very little clicks. …

It’s getting ever closer to MoGameCon 2019 (if you want to see our last year coverage, click here). We thought that before all of the E3 coverage comes pouring in soon, we should put the spotlight on MoGameCon. Even though it happens the first week of August, it’s still worth …

Oh man, today’s review is a bit different! We have a new product that is out there for retro and modern gamers alike. If you have cartridges and you’ve found that blowing in them doesn’t work (because duh) and using alcohol cleans, but doesn’t preserve, then this review is for …

We’ve got another handheld to review for your reading pleasure! This one is something that has evolved from a previous version. The previous one was reviewed all over the place and was sort of “meh” overall. So when I saw this newer one that improved on a lot of complaints …

Over the last year, we’ve reviewed a lot of products on our humble site. Now we could never choose favorites among any of them, especially the ones that reviewed really well. And it’s pretty hard to say exactly what the gamer in your life exactly wants. So what we’ve done with …

Just a couple of days ago Nintendo hit the rom world hard by issuing cease and desist to a very popular rom sites loveretro.co and loveroms. In the wake of that Emuparadise has decided to take down their database of roms to avoid any kind of lawsuit from Big N. Let’s face …

MOGameCon was alive and kicking for a third year just outside of St.Louis in a city called St.Charles this last Saturday. It is a convention that has been in a space too big and a space that was too small. The convention has lasted one day, then two, then one again. …

Some of you may remember when we talked about the Kickstarter for the GameShell. It’s a modular handheld that is also open source and thoroughly hackable. In fact, the hacking aspect is encouraged. It had a Kickstarter campaign of $50,000 and as of now they’re at 580% greater than their …
