![]() One of the best things about the Pocket Sprite is the ability to install ROMS over Wi-Fi. These are two great emulators, and there’s enough of a punch on this thing to power them smoothly, we had no problems with it bugging out, frame rate drops or screen tearing, it was a nice fluid motion, but the low pixel screen made it a little jittery at times within some games.Īs you can see on the list above their is no Gameboy Advance emulator in this thing, for us that’s a bit disappointing as the GBA has some of the best gameboy games ever. ![]() The PocketSprite comes pre-loaded with two emulators, GNUBoy and SMS Plus, that allow you to play every single game on the following platforms: It wasn’t even long until we got bored, we used it for an hour and then… it went in the drawer. We just found this screen and miniature buttons a struggle to play on, and that took away the initial enjoyment. You can see most of what you re doing, but some games for example Pokemon, it’s hard to read some of the text, there’s just not enough pixels in this thing, and that’s not to blame the company, its probably because nobody actually builds them this small with a resolution higher than 96 x 64. ![]() We think because the screen is so small it’s hard to output a lot of quality causing a weird coloration on every game. Moving onto the screen, we’ll admit, it packs a punch, You can see what you’re doing, the colour is extremely saturated and it has got a nice brightness to it, which was unexpected.īut again, it’s very small, and it has this weird green hue to it that we can’t quite explain. The buttons are clicky, and very, very small, so is the screen, coming in at 25mm. The Pocket Sprite is made from a sturdy plastic with a matte finish, they do have other versions such as transparent, and a slightly more expensive metal version which actually looks quite nice. It’s diddy size and nature gives it a cute aesthetic that you just can’t help loving. Hands down the Pocket Sprite is one of the most adorable handheld consoles of all time. So, here goes our review of the miniature keychain Gameboy named the Pocket Sprite. This Pocket Sprite review might annoy some of you readers, and we apologise for that, but it’s a product that we couldn’t stay quiet about because we have some very strong opinions about it, as you can probably tell from the score we gave it! We know, delayed is an under statement for this review but we’ve stepped back, and watched to see if the company will do any new versions, amendments and perhaps even new products? The micro sized metal gameboy known as the Pocket Sprite was a smash hit when it was first revealed on Kickstarter a couple of years back, and we were one of those who absolutely adored it!īut it wasn’t until now that we felt like we wanted to write about it. ![]()
