I thought the marketplace went offline sometime last year?

Great console though, wish Gameboy were still a viable product line.

No, you weren't able to link a credit card to your account, but you could buy with e-shop cards. It finally was laid to rest Monday morning.

It seems odd to say since it's already over....

I'm going for it.

"No you couldn't use e-shop cards. Ya had to link to your Switch account."

Phew.

History restored.

I found my Gameboy Advanced SP (silver with the tribal tattoos) in the attic whilst clearing it out, hadn’t seen the light of day for like 12 years… Battery still had charge.

Just purchase a retro hand held. I just ordered this guy. Emulates just about everything up to the ps1 era for $55. https://anbernic.com/products/rg35xx

Oh yeah, I actually own an Anbernic RG351MP already and I love it.

Just crazy to me that Gameboy is pretty much extinct at this point. To me the switch isn't a good portable Nintendo solution. I love the console but it's as portable as a surfboard in my pocket.
