@rygD Thanks for your detailed answer! For the sake of ease I ordered the Everdrive GB, although it's not quite cheap in my opinion. But all the other options seem to be quite cumbersome regarding their handling. I just realize, that I'm getting in the age where time of pleasure is more worth...

I just played a round of Comix Zone [1] for the Sega Mega Drive. In this arcade style Beat'em'up you fight your way through the pages of a comic book. This game has a nice gameplay and a decent graphic. Here you can see the first level: [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comix_Zone

Hmmm... ok then the everdrive it will be! Is there anything I should watch out when buying an Everdrive GB? As I’ve seen there are different versions and even manufacturers(?) out there. I suppose since it’s using a SD-card for operation I wouldn’t need any Windows-PC for update/activation or...

Hi, I found my old Game Boy pocket and I’m looking for a cartridge, where I can upload ROM’s and play them on the Game Boy. The only thing I found is the Everdrive GB [1] which is not that cheap in my opininon. Has anybody experience with this cartridge? Are there any cheaper alternatives...

That’s like buying a stock car, but want it to look like a Lada Niva....

This would be ultra fancy, but as stated above, I’m using cheap, ordinary desktop computer hardware for my "servers"... But maybe this is the the way to go?! To be honest I doesn’t know a lot about these serial interfaces. I will read a little bit about them. Does anyone know, if this could...

Good to hear! Bad D-Pads can make some games unplayable…

Yes, drivers might be a problem with this devices. I think I’m better off with a small portable display for this cases...

You mean something like this (Link to Amazon)? Has anyone experience with such devices? I suppose they need some piece of software to show the grabbed images. Would it work with the Pyra? As stated above I primarly need this when the system is NOT booting. Once the system is up, I’m happy...

No, not what I mean. I just want to use it as a simple screen plugged to the computers graphics card. This is useful, when the system doesn’t boot and you want to check why....

I’m pretty sure that this might be hard to achieve, or even impossible, but why not asking: Will it be possible to utilize the display of the Pyra as a screen for a desktop pc? This might be useful for me, since I’m (ab)using some ordinary pc’s as servers and they don’t have a screen...

I’m playing Super Metroid [1] on my RetroPi these days. I never played Super Metroid before and I’m quite impressed by this game. Especially the soundtrack of this game is very appealing. I already ordered a Super Nintendo controller. Till now I only own a XBox-Controller. The SNES buttons are...

It should be easy to disable the countdown timer, or set it to a lower value (1 or 2 seconds) for the production devices. So booting will be 7-8 seconds faster than in the video.

Honestly, I would really like that. Non-transparent though...

I'm really astonished how robust the case and the electronic looks! Great work! This is really an interesting video.

The wife is already jealous, although the man doesn't have his Pyra yet. It's going to be a haaaaard time, once it's arrived.. :)

Yes you're right, j Interpreter a little bit too much in that Statement of user "Linux-SWAT". It Sound for me like this is the only use of Java in his opinion. I personally think Java is a bad language for learning programming. It' s "transparent" Pointer handling is the Problem here. I think...

In my opinion it really doesn't matter, if Java is number 1 or number 5 in whatsoever Ranking. But degrading the language as a beginner-only programming language is simply a misleading and wrong Statement. There might be some students who say "I won't learn Java, because that one guy, who is a...

@wc_ Yes this news is indeed good for me. I was also planning to be able to fix Java programms on the go, if necessary. I simply didn't think about, that Java might not run on an ARM architecture... @Letalis Sonus hmmm... simply don't use java, if you don't like it :-)

@Letalis Sonus yes, they might be biased, but you can believe me, that im not a beginner in programming. I'm working more than 13 years now with Java, and the applications I'm designing are quite big. As an example: The whole Airport-managemnet software of the Vienna Airport is written in Java...
