It's actually worth it if you have any kind of a commute. There are a lot of very fun games for it. And it's nice having a thing that isn't connected to the Internet to avoid the temptation of doom scrolling.

I bought mine pre release so it was like $50 cheaper even with the cover I think, but I would still pay the increased price for it. I thought it would collect dust, but it really is a great way to pass the time on the train. It scratches the original Gameboy itch for me without the needless stares from actually carrying a Gameboy.

I just wish they would release the docking station for it. I charge it next to my bed, so it could serve two purposes.

Any game recommendations? You may have convinced me
Ok, this is it. Consider me convinced
You'd farm more aura with an ereader on the train
