Epilogue's GB Operator lets a computer play original Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance cartridges for around $50.
Retro gaming has mostly split into two camps: ROMs and emulators on one side, original cartridges and aging consoles on the other. A lot of people have boxes of SNES games they love, but end up playing downloaded copies on a laptop because it is easier. The Epilogue SN Operator tries to bring those physical carts back into the loop without dragging a CRT out of storage or rewiring your living room.
