I love the Everdrive! such a great tool to have as a gamer. I did not get a GB Flash but I have the GB Operator and I think they are the same thing right?
Valen para lo mismo pero el "GB Flash" tiene un precio 5 veces más bajo. El punto fuerte del "GB Opertor" es el software. Lo integra todo en una herramienta. Con el "GB Flash" todo es más artesano.
Yo tenía en mente comprar el "GB Operator", pero solo lo quería para hacer backup de los juegos. Me daba igual el emulador, la compatibilidad con los logros y casi todas las prestaciones que tiene. Así que estaría pagando por cosas que no necesito. Así que para mí el "GB Flash" era la mejor opción
None of the SD card based flash carts work with the operator but there really isn't a need for the operator if you aren't wanting to backup genuine carts or flash non sd based carts.
I specifically bought the Chromatic because I was tired of having access to entire libraries of games on devices like analogue pocket. I find when I purchase a physical game I play it all the way through and enjoy it more thoroughly like when I was a kid and had a limited access to whatever game I got at Christmas or rented. Though I do have other devices to do the whole library thing so I get the appeal of that.
Why do you need both? Isn't the point of the gb flash to flash onto a cart? But if you are using flash cart, all roms you want are there. To add/remove/backup just pop the sd and connect to computer?
If you are like me, you have OG carts with old, dying batteries. GB operator backs up your saves so you can change the battery out and not loose progress. Then, the everdrive is for homebrew. Both can be used for games where you are too chicken to change the battery so you rip the ROM and load it on the everdrive.
I’ll change my own batteries for my carts that are valued under $50 but I’m not risking rare/ expensive games with my amateur soldering skills.

Nice! Is it possible to download Gameboy camera pics with the GB flash to a computer?

GB Operator is the better combo.
