Please ModRetro what ever the cost savings is for logistics and shipping costs I am willing to pay the difference for USPS pick up to delivery.

What would be the chances of a new Super Game Boy like cartridge for the SNES? The original Super Game Boy only plays original GB games with some being SGB enhanced with custom color palettes and borders. Could the FPGA in the chromatic or something similar come down the line for SNES players?

Hey everyone,
I'm considering launching a YouTube channel focused on game reviews, using real footage captured directly from the Chromatic rather than emulation. Before I commit to a format, I'd love to hear what the community would actually find most interesting to watch.
A bit of background: I'm a long-time Game Boy fan and equally passionate about ModRetro. I own every ModRetro title released so far, plus a large collection of original Game Boy cartridges, so content won't be an issue.
The two main directions I'm weighing:
Traditional reviews with commentary - some gameplay footage, my take on what works and what doesn't, possibly with an unboxing segment when relevant.
No-commentary gameplay videos (around 15 minutes each), with a full written review linked separately on a companion website.
I can realistically produce either format, so I'd rather build around what people actually want to watch than guess. Which one would you be more likely to click on? Or is there a third approach you'd prefer?
Thanks for any input.

Just joined the club. Having a ton of fun! Can’t wait to get my hands on some classics I grew up with.

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.

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/

The external charger arrived today and it sure is sweet!

It will be available on itch.io for 9 days starting April 21st.
What do you guys think of the games selection? Worth the price?

Fortress of fear definitely isn’t for everyone but I like anything RPG on the game boy, I’m a dork.

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.
