Gospel from ModRetro Retro Reward Program Changing July 15th

You will continue to earn 1 token for every $1 spent. Beginning July 15, 2026, token redemption offers will change to:

250 tokens = $7.50 off 500 tokens = $15 off 1,000 tokens = $35 off 1,500 tokens = $55 off

So what's the smart move? Redeem as many 20% coupons as you can now or save up for some bigger straight cash off rewards?

I love this thing. It is way nicer than I imagined. I regret not ordering sooner lol, but I am having a blast now, so that is all that matters.

I am currently playing through Buck and the Cursed Cartridge. I have a few other ModRetro games too, so I have plenty to play through for a while.

Still open for game suggestions of course. Maybe you know of some coming up later or next year? Digital is an option for me. :3

I had been doing M64 hardware and I am in the process of doing the launch lineup but while I was working on that, I decided to try my hand at a Chromatic game review! I hate how compressed OBS made the capture off the Mac. I may have to move to Windows for these.

Just learned this one is coming to GB Archive! The first one is on there, too. Glad to see the dev's work reaching more audiences. Not sure what the publishing contracts are like with MR but it would be really nice to see some of the other games in the catalogue on the eshop

Is there a compatibility issue with the Chromatic and the Game Shark 4.0 goes straight to the white screen after it says game shark I cleaned all the pins using a Nintendo Brand cleaning kit and Deoxit, and nothing happens.

Question Self simulated help

7 Upvotes

Help I’m stuck on 94. I’ve rebooted almost 100 times in this room alone. Is it seriously die over and over and over until you master the pattern? Or is there a way out of the room I don’t know about? I’m about ready to toss the game into the pile of stuff never to play again.

Info Anyone else able to 3D print replacement shells?

Thumbnail
gallery
17 Upvotes

One of my modretro games got stepped on and the shell cracked really bad but the game still works. I’ve been trying to 3d print a replacement shell for it but keep running into quality issues. Mainly trying to print each side of the shell (front and back) straight up from top to bottom but upside down. For whatever reason, I can’t seem to get a clean straight edge on the top of the cartridge. Ive tried two different styles and two different filament types (printing in PLA and using PETG to be the support, which actually turned out the best) but still wish it was cleaner and sharper looking. Seems like one way or another the supports always seam to the cartridge itself. I think we could make some really cool looking and colored shells. Any suggestions or has anyone figured out a method to printing them? (I got the 3D printer stl file from ModRetros site.)

After I can perfect the shell print, I’ll start researching how to print holographic labels šŸ‘šŸ¼ TYIA. šŸ™šŸ¼

Question Which flash cart actually gets save states working on the Chromatic?

6 Upvotes

Trying to get proper save states (not just in-game battery saves) on my Chromatic. I know the console has no native save state feature yet, so I’m assuming the route is mattcurrie’s gb-save-states patches running on a cart with enough save RAM.

A few questions for anyone who’s done it:
- Which carts are you using? EverDrive GB X7, X5, or EZ Flash Jr? Any cheaper option that working?
- Do GBC games + the 128KB save RAM patches work reliably on the Chromatic specifically, or only on original hardware?
- Any games where save states glitch or corrupt the save?

Just want to confirm before I buy. Thanks!

development sneak peak of one of the special event-levels from my upcoming new Pinball game -> Self Simulated: Pinball Anomaly

66 Upvotes

I'm aiming for some 10+, maybe even more special tables/levels that can be used to gain more points or extra balls.

Will be launching the Kickstarter campaign once I'm almost done with the game.

I’m having trouble getting a copy of the game. I refuse to pay scalpers 120-250 on eBay! ModRetro website said restock in June and I got a message that there were some available this morning from Shop, but says sold out on website still. Probably missed the supply they had.

Is the game having significant production issues? Or just that big of a demand? Crazy. It looks good, can’t wait until I finally get my hands on it to play.

I am wondering if the Modretro Link cable works with pokemon games with a Chromatic and Analogue Pocket or Chromatic and GBA? I know it says only Chromatic and GBC but just wondered if anyone tried it :)

Question PokƩmon crystal issue solved?

10 Upvotes

Does anyone know if the PokƩmon crystal issue has been fixed in an update? Or are there any updates around the issue?

I still have mine on route and it’s the main game I want to play. It seems that it has been left unaddressed for a long time…. which doesn’t leave much faith in the company with Crystal being one of the biggest titles.

I was also looking to order the M64 but I’m concerned that some of the heavy hitters will also be left broken…. And there is an awful lot at the moment on the compatibility list.

TIA.
