GBA In 2021: I built a $250 Game Boy Advance in 2021

What's your favorite retro handheld?

Great build, Matt! And love the transparency/humility. This is such a deep rabbit hole. I’ve got a trove of ideas myself. I’ll also add that restoring is extremely satisfying. (I’d like to purchase a “lot” of units for clean up an repair at some point.) My personal AGB is white shell, blue buttons, and original gray sides/triggers. My pipe dream is to carry that theme to a DMG, GBP, GBC, and SP.

I definitely was looking at those last night. Maybe after I restore a couple 😅

Big fan of the "new hobby every month or two" vibe over here. Currently real deep in a split between handheld emulators and photo editing software. Earlier in quarantine was mechanical keyboards and streaming tech. Always! A thrill!!

What are you checking out in photos? My early 2019 hobby was getting good at that. 😂

Nods and grins to self at "buys cheapest XYZ, orders better XYZ" Been there 🤣

Great video, I hope it blows up soon!

[@MattHorton]

Thanks!

This is making Switch family conversations trickier over here, but that's alright! My kids love this project, but admitted they wouldn't be patient enough to do half of this to play games. I'm still marveling at the Apple TV remote build! 😂

Falling into a new hobby every 6 months is such relatable Aquarius energy! 🤣
