New handheld console with a crank. Need I say more.
I probably should say more because I love the idea of the games being secret until the day they come out, and the idea of waking up to a new game every Monday morning.
you should come hang out in the news thread, we’ve been having a blast dunking on this thing all day

no
the Playdate looks cool and neat
also, i just now realized this thing is not called “playmate”
if the Playdate was released twenty five years ago to failure and obscurity it would def. be enshrined as legend
Have you tried that one game anthology, Meditations?
finally, someone invented the gameboy
it has a crank tho. a crank.
I lowkey wish the crank also recharged the battery but this still looks neat as heck.
The crank just makes me wonder why they went with that instead of a knob or a wheel.
Keita Takahashi and Bennett Foddy are making games for it.
I’m interested.
needs a Vib Ribbon port
Okay I legit want one of these PlayDates but $149US is too rich for me unless I can also make my own games for it.
We’ve had tons of games that have used knobs and wheels. There have been much fewer games that have used cranks even though cranks can be just as fun to turn.
black and white screen? ffs
