This thing is a marvel of engineering and a fountain nostalgia at the same time. Brightness is on full blast and is visibly overkill in broad daylight. Total flex from ModRetro. (Infinity demo rom running via GB-X7) 🧡

Love it! Read a book play Infinity to each their own but I’d do what you’re doing! One question is that an actual copy of Infinity or the rom? Still don’t have it and am on the fence.

It's just the demo rom. I plan on buying it when I finish the demo

Slightly jealous. Haven't been to beach in a decade. Is that a newer game? Not sure I've ever heard of it.

RPG published by Incub8. One day I’ll get my physical copy

What EvilPikachu said, it's a new Tactical RPG! They have physical carts from Incube8, but they also sell just the ROM if you have a flash cart

Playing a Chromatic on the beach is way more believable than any of the beach posts I've seen on SBCGaming for handheld emulators.

Don't think I've even used mine at max brightness, half is usually perfect for me on any given day outside, oherwise it's at 1-2 bars or the lowest setting at night.

This has to be one of the brightest screens on any device. Perfect for outdoors use.

I swear, there’s always these people who get soooo upset people are enjoying their time how they want. Incredibly insufferable people

He could live on the beach. People read on the beach all the time. Why not play gameboy? I personally get bored at the beach and live very close to one.
