ModRetro’s CHROMATIC: This Modernized Game Boy is FULL of SURPRISES!

when inflation is counted it's actually the same value as the original gameboy color. that's just how bad the dollars gotten

Dude, I just got this same model the other day and WOW this thing is stellar. I mean I still love my Pocket (and its save states) but this is built like a tank and I'm LOVING it. Also hope you've been good man 😀

I'm hooked to my Tetris too. I just pick mine up for 3 minute speed session and sit down right after for my fix somedays .

Taking mine with me on my train trip back to Oregon this thanksgiving to see the extended family. Should keep me company on the sleeper car alongside my cat.

I have the GameStop Edition and it is superb! 🔥

I'm seeing this everywhere now. I guess they're no longer out of stock? It's tempting as I do own a couple GB carts and only an SNES Super Game Boy to use them on.

I picked up a Chromatic on launch last year at Game Stop. I also have a modded IPS Gorgeous Green Play it Loud series Game Boy and an IPS modded Atomic Purple Game Boy Color. After playing the ModRetro Chromatic, I get really happy when I find a Game Boy or Game Boy Color game I want to play at a Mom and Pop shop or at a show because it feels like whole new, yet familiar experience on the Chromatic. I love the Magnesium Casing and in reference to my system, the Sapphire screen. Last night, I was playing The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages on it and its just so ridiculously crisp. The FPGA and the way the pixels are displayed on screen is simply something that needs to be experienced since the compression on a YouTube video does not do the clarity of the screen justice. On my console, besides Tetris, I also have Monsterland DX and Dragonhymn. The indie scene on this portable has some really good quality games. This may be a premium devicd but its worth every penny for everything it does.

The Gameboy had some great games, and I'm not denying this is a very high quality device, but I have a hard time justifying the price tag for this handheld.

The yellow one speaks to me. Love the GameBoy!

Great video as always. I purchased a Chromatic but haven't tried it yet. Now I want to! New Tetris looks great. Thanks, Jon!

This looks very interesting and looks quite well made, but for me there’s just too many of these types of devices coming out t the same time. I’m still hoping to get a Game station Go by year’s end.😊

Great video bro what a awesome game 😊

I was an early adopter and have really enjoyed my Chromatic it also works well with my Everdrive Flash Cart 😊 on top of being cool to pick up new nicely boxed game carts with manuals.

Very Cool!

Please don't give Palmer Luckey a dime. Just google him if you wanna know why. But play the Chromatic Tetris anyway you can. It's just a gbc rom, and it's a fantastic Tetris. Congrats to the team.

Buy a used gameboy (they last forever, did you see the one that survived the 90's Iraq War?) Mod it with IPS screen and a boxy pixel shell, and you've got this thing. You don't get the fancy directional preferences, but you don't have to PalmHer to get it. Just palm yourself like you did in the 90's.

This Tetris is actually a huge downgraded version of the original nintendo gameboy tetris.
The multiplayer sucks ballz. I would not even call it multiplayer even.
It is just more of comparing scores.
There is no interaction between players at all.
They really do not know what they are doing with Tetris
A huge letdown
I hope they release a new version of Tetris. Perhaps to be called Tetris MR which has an actual multiplayer
I am hoping a 4 player actual interacting multiplayer.

would have liked to see you play an original GB Cart.

I need this

If I could back up my carts on it, this would probably be top of my list for a new Gameboy.

I'm trying to decide if I need it, having got many GB, GBCs in my collection, as well as emulation handhelds and an Analogue Pocket.
It does look cool though

Seems to be a solution in search of a problem

$199.99 wow!

Really cool gadget. Never owned or played a GB, this looks like a quality product. Do go for it or buy the Atari GSG?

It will have been Potassium not Magnesium. The latter does react but a few bubbles forming over several minutes isn't an explosion. Potassium will though.
