Looks like the GameBub reached 100% funding !
A few days ago, I mentioned a Corwdfunding for an FPGA game device called the GameBub.
Here's a video that they made about it:

Hey look its the #GameBub an #Analogue Pocket competitor FPGA gaming handheld for #Nintendo GBA and GB/GBC! Prototype unit but so far the results are pretty fun. Lot more in depth in the vid but def worth looking into youtu.be/nQoL-KCPT50 #gaming #gamingnews #gaming_news #Nintendo

I just saw another bunch of cool projects on CrowdSupply, so here's a short thread about them.
First, GameBub - an FGPA handheld. Not MiSTer compatible, but it seems quite powerful (more LEs and embedded RAM than Analog Pocket):

Fr tho! You also have the upcoming gamebub (not sure if the crowdfund's succeeded) and then there's also mister pi (love mine a bunch!). SO many better options and buying any of them supports WAY better people. Even for all of analogue's annoying shipping delays.

I just noticed that the schedule of events for CrowdSupply's Teardown is now up, and it looks really interesting - even the GameBub FPGA designer is presenting !
(Unfortunately, for various reasons I won't be able to join this year despite having a ticket).

#oshwa2026 was sooo good and over way too fast, and intense/overwhelming at the same time. rarely talked with so many super nice people in such a short time, and still managed to miss out on some, and missed some opportunities to play with some things (like the gamebub, aaaa cc @bnys ).

Game Bub is an open source, FPGA-based handheld with support for Game Boy, GBC, and GBA games (crowdfunding)
The Game Bub is an upcoming handheld game console designed to play Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance games. Like most modern handhelds it can handle ROM files. But you can also use cartridges, making this a modern device that functions a lot like the original hardware. In fact, it even supports link cables for multiplayer gaming and special features that were only used by a handful of games thanks to rumble, accelerometer, gyroscope, and real-time clock functions.
