Why not just get a Steam Deck and emulate everything?

to be fair, the emulation on these devices is significantly more accurate, right?

Yes, but I suspect that GB emulation has been perfect for a decade or 2 lol

Yes, fond memories of using No$Gb on my 486 laptop back in the day to play pirated copies of Pokémon Red and Blue...

To shine a spotlight on just how long ago, the DOS version of No$Gb had a Y2K easter egg built into it, which I got to witness in real time. And it was hilarious.
