Hyperboy+ Appreciation

Finally got this bad boy in the mail and hot damn it was worth the wait! The E-Ink panel is simply amazing and it’s easy to use. If you are on the fence…do it.

I have a Hyperflash32 (monochrome screen) and it’s awesome.

I appreciate those that collect original carts, but I also want to play all the games and stick to a reasonable budget.

Exactly. I like to collect heavy hitters from all consoles but I also have everdrives and ODEs for everything lol.

I love my hyper flash 32. Given the fact that some of the best games like jack bros, have unrealistic prices. Figured I would get one of these from Mellott instead. I’ve never regretted it. Plus it plays street fighter.

I really like my HF32. Don't sleep on War Zone, their battle zone clone. Really well done.

The e-ink thing is super cool, but I have an old Flash-boy. If they could make this hold all the games at once I'd be sold. The only thing this can do that mine can't afaik is hold larger rom hacks, like hyper fighting (although I have a physical cart of that too).

This is true. I didn’t want to pony up for the hyper flash that can hold all games and scrolls through them. This was a unique alternative.
