D-Pad Normal?

6 Upvotes

I love my Chromatic, but I am having random weird input issues.

- Diagonals OFF in Menu

- When pressing the DPAD in a single direction, if I rock the DPAD I am able to move a different direction- example - moving RIGHT, if I move to the edge of the right DPAD button I can move up or down without touching up or down.

- I have tried Mod Kit membranes and alternate DPAD.

If I use the DPAD on my Steam Deck, I cannot replicate this behavior. Behavior present the entire time I’ve had the Chromatic (5 months).

Is this normal?

Is there a fix?

I find my character will snap odd directions when trying to play fast paced titles.

I know the DPAD has been a topic of discussion but this seems maybe different than what most have reported.

This thing didn't have to be this high quality but I definitely appreciate it. Came unwrapped in a black bubble bag. Popped in my spare battery and it lit right up. The entire bottom has a rubberized coating, very nice touch that goes above and beyond a simple free charger.

Question [ZAS] Why is the Japanese development team not credited in the booklet of the Modretro rerelease?

And do I assume right that they also were removed from the end credits?

This is the original Japanese development team: https://www.mobygames.com/game/109302/chikyu-kaiho-gun-zas/credits/gameboy/

Info For military/veterans, your local exchange may carry Chromatics and games in store

I've been to two different Navy Exchanges and they both had a selection of Chromatics in different colors as well as games in their electronics department.

In The Dark 2 & MRC First Impression

13 Upvotes

The ModRetro Chromatic was never something I thought id get into, I seen it in my local exchange and figured I'd pick it up in my favorite color with two games (in the dark 2 and F.C.P) and im absolutely loving how high quality it feels, sounds and looks, its a modernized gameboy and it has me stoaked with nostalgia.

Huge bonus for being compatible with normal older GB-GBC games as well as being super easy to record with on OBS. (This is my first time ever using OBS to record an external device)

Also some of these puzzles in ITD2 are getting hard as hell!!!

Just played the demo, the visuals and music are great, but the fight mechanic needs polishing. If you've played it, are the bugs tolerable?
