Went for a two-hour research binge into Nintendo emulation on mobile devices because I got frustrated at people saying "just buy the mobile ports, that's the easiest way", ignoring that having money can be one kind of an accessibility barrier and that most computer stuff is easy to do if you've got someone who can walk you through it step by step. Which I can.

I also wanna take that one shitpost about Safety Absols and draw an Absol with appropriate safety gear. That hardhat is not even secure. Where's their reflective vest.

Oh! Is there emulation out there for Pokémon gold/Silver? I have the gameboy colour and gold cartridge, but it’s an arse to keep replacing the internal battery to get the day/night function to work.

Or like heartgold/soulsilver because I’d love to play those again. :0

Emulation sounds so cool but I don’t really understand it XP

But how are they supposed to appear suddenly and ominously if they can't be stealthy

Is that how everybody's able to play translation patches for something like a DS, or do I need to mod the hardware? I've been testing out PCSX2 for stuff I own but haven't made any Nintendo attempts since they seem to be so fraught.

I've still got my cartridges for my old Pokémon games (1st and 2nd gen) but I'm sure the battery died a long time ago, RIP
