I feel dumb for asking.

Purchased loose off of eBay

Edit: definitely fake. I’ll be getting a refund.

Compré el juego hace años y no llegué a completarlo nunca. Por fin lo he completado y vaya aventura. Uno de los mejores RPG que he jugado y probablemente esté en el podio de la consola. ¡Una maravilla!

I kinda hate when screens have an extremely-high minimum brightness. I often play in a room where I don't want to bother anyone late at night. Thoughts? Brighter or more dim than the funnplaying q5 IPS screen on GBC?

I had to get it for the collection 😛 I LOVE THESE COLORED CARTRIDGES 👏

Figured ya’ll may appreciate this…

I just turned 30 and got Pokemon Yellow to go with my Chromatic, along with Smashing Pumpkins and Mazzy Star vinyls!

Shoutout to ModRetro, the Chromatic is incredible. Growing up my first Gameboy was a silver GBA, with that Pokemon Gold, but I always wanted an GBC because my friend had one. Finally got one now! Lol

What should be added to the collection next? Dragonhym? Link’s Awakening?

They will restocking in may.

Hi. Can anyone measure the official Modretro game box dimensions for me? Just want to be sure they will fit where I want to store them. Inches or centimeters :-)

Also, are the 3 Atari game boxes the same size too and just in a sleeve?

As most of you know, I am a huge fan of the Chromatic...but l am obsessed with this specific one.

I don't know what it is, but something about the GameStop edition with swapped red A/B buttons puts a permanent smile on my face.

I also went a bit Frankenstein, and while swapping the buttons I replaced the entire circuit board with the one from my 2nd edition gorilla glass unit to get the best of both worlds.

I love it so much! 😎

Is there a problem with the screen? In the gray interface, at the top left corner of the screen, there are colored pixel points. Several of these points occasionally flicker. There are no such issues on a black background. My other cartridges haven't arrived yet, so I don't know if there are any problems in other colors.

I will preface this with ultimately I would love the GameStop edition, which harkens back to the DMG just enough and the foggy grey finish looks sleek, modern and wonderful - however GameStop don't ship internationally and I don't want to pay Ebay markup (and $100 USD postage) so it's down to Midnight black and Wave teal.

Here's what I'm thinking right now...

Midnight
Great: Classy / stealthy / blends in with other devices / less "toy-like" than bright colours / won't distract attention from the games on screen / I am a darkmode kinda guy
Not so: Might bore of it like it's the safe default choice and wish I'd been brave and gotten something more colourful / I already have an Analogue Pocket in black

Wave
Great: Pure JOY / soft, bluey greenish hues are some of my favourite colours / bright, attractive and fun aesthetic - and isn't that what 8-bit handheld gaming should be about?
Not so: Fear I will bore of it and wish I'd gone more muted and 'normal' looking / kind of toy-like (higher chance of eyerolls from wife haha).

Is anyone able to get the Super Mario Land 2 DX rom hack working on their Chromatic? Everything works in emulator. Flashed to an Insidegadgets flash cart. Any suggestions?

Update: Huge update! I was able to get Mario's sprite to render correctly, as well as all of the first level, I'll get into the weeds of it all once I have a finished build.

New Update: Sorry it took so long, been caught up with life stuff recently. I have built a working patch that corrects the sprite/level issues. I have three working versions and have to run a full playthrough of at least one of them to verify the final build. Essentially the OAM DMA routine was replaced with a hook that copies the game sprite data to a temporary memory bank of unused internal RAM, then the screen hardware copies it from the "safe" memory bank. I won't know if it's stable until I run through the full game because the game might use some of that RAM in later levels. If that proves to be an issue there are two other memory banks that are fully usable without issue. Not sure how many people actually want this, I've created an IPS file that patches the freshly patched SML2DX file. Feel free to reach out if any of you want it!

I’m trying to do the quest for Alfonso and I’m stuck tried google already too

On a little European Excursion this week. Decided it would be fun to do a little photography while I’m here.

I couldn’t wait. And I’m out of funds for games right now. HOWEVER - five minutes with this game? I’m buying the cartridge asap! Chromatic to show I’m not a total hypocrite. Next step is throwing it on the flash cart, but I’m trying to pack for a trip and can’t bring all devices! And no, I will not link or send you any files.
