              I was looking around at modded Pockets thinking that it would be cool to make a SFC-themed one similar to how I'm building my GBA. then I saw this. It's from the first known guy to put a Pi3 in a pocket. Oh yes. I think I need to do this*

              *once I finish at least one of the half-started builds I'm currently working on. Who am I kidding, I'm looking at parts right now

                      Guess what showed up today.
                      Yes, the Mausberry. After exactly 2 months I received it. I almost forgot what I wanted to do with it.

                        @FlyingTomahawk Oh wow. I still think that they forgot about your order until you filed a complaint with PayPal. It's a shame, but as someone said, there's not a lot of competition for those devices, so they can get away with it. :-/

                            I have a bid in for a barely used, white AGB-001 with a soft case and wall adapter. Hopefully that doesn't get too astronomically priced before the auction ends tonight. Even the back is really nice.

                            alt text

                            While checking in on things on eBay I decided to look at Game Boy Light (MGB-101) listings, and wow. I thought the "light gray" Pockets were pricey. I think I'll stick with finding a decent Pocket and then backlight modding it myself.
                            alt text

                            Then again, it seems like pretty much all the Pockets I'm seeing are going for "a lot" (at least $30) if they're in working order where the screen doesn't have bad pixels, isn't corroded, has the battery cover, stickers on the back aren't mangled, etc.

                              Woo hoo! I won the auction for the white AGB-001! It was a little more than I wanted to spend, but bidding went up at the end, and well, it's the cleanest one I've seen in a while. I think for $30 I paid a decent price considering it comes with a case and AC adapter. Those soft cases are selling for around $8 - $13, and the AC adapters with the battery pack adapter are $20 - $23 right now.

                              Now to wait for it to come in the mail. Hopefully it doesn't take as long as a Mausberry…

                                That white GBA looks very good.

                                  @FlyingTomahawk thanks! It's not as cheap as one at Hard Off I'm sure, but the air fare was cheaper 😉

                                  You know, this is all your fault. Haha.

                                    Just wanted to give you a quick update on your Famicom.
                                    It is packed and ready to ship. I will go to the post office Thursday or latest Friday.

                                        I realize a Switch is hardly retro. But I think I love this.

                                          Hmmm...
                                          Interesting, a retro design switch console.
                                          Not that I ever would buy a switch but the idea is great if you could play retro games on it.

                                          @edmaul69

                                          Did you see my mail about the phone number?
                                          If not, send me your phone number, i need to write a recipient phone number on the package papers.

                                            @FlyingTomahawk If they actually made a SNES Nintendo Switch, I would buy it in a heart beat. Well, if they start up the VC before hand.
