Do you know what is better than an Arduboy? An Arduboy with a couple hundred games pre-loaded on it, that's what!
Today I take a look at the new Arduboy FX: A modern 8 bit game system that is built like a tank. Unboxing, gameplay and my opinions.

Just got mine in the mail! So excited preordered ages ago. Thanks for the great vid! Can't figure out if there is any way to back out of a game or if you just have to turn it off and then on again each time to switch games, you wouldn't happen to know would you?

Don't worry. Being anxious about on/off is a contemporary reaction to devices with complicated softwares which get corrupted due to random shutdowns. The arduboy being so retro and minimalistic can tolerate on/offs

"Real gamers and gatekeepers"? Is that supposed to be pro-gatekeeping or anti-gatekeeping? I hate people who think they "own" the hobby and no one can join unless they have 20+ years of technical knowledge sooo...I hope it's the second one, gatekeeping sucks...

Lol @ comparing it to a GameBoy. The GameBoy has more RAM, more onscreen colors, more hardware sprites, more background layers, more sound channels, more buttons, more peripherals, it can do multiplayer by linking 2 systems, and the GameBoy can support game files 10 times larger than any Arduboy game. So even if the Arduboy had been released in 1989, it would have no competition for the GameBoy. It can't play GameBoy games, but the GameBoy could play any Arduboy game and improve on it.

Do you know of any modern inexpensive clone gameboys that would be worth getting ? Ones that just run gameboy stuff, no need ot be able to run emulators of other consoles.
