I managed to snag a blue Pocket.

Seems like they had a decent number of each color. First sellout was at about 5 minutes, and last sellout at about 14 minutes. Compare to the glow in the dark version, which sold out in 2 minutes.

Man, is there really any need for a flashcart? As far as it seems it’s janky as gently caress and I can potentially just add them straight.

Convince me not to return the $80 cart to Amazon.

Probably not.

Also bear in mind that GB/GBC games run off of a GBA flashcart have kind of a messed up resolution. Like the aspect ratio is fine, it's just smaller because you're going through the GBA core or whatever.

This is largely irrelevant on an actual GBA, but you give up a decent amount of screen real estate on the Pocket.

I'm not having any issues with my 8bitdo PCE controllers on the Duo. They paired fine and everything works as expected.

My only complaint with 8bitdo at the moment is that you can't use their handy firmware updater for the PCE controllers. Seems like a weird oversight, but the manual method works well enough.
