Portable console ideas

Posted under /ent/

Since the new tech is gonna become cloud AI spyware, and old game consoles are deteriorating from age, I have new ideas on how 2 preserve them

Gameboy 64: Gameboy Advance, where the cartridge slot is moved to the bottom and a second slot for Nintendo 64 is added. A button is added so you can switch between the two. Also compatible with Gameboy and Gameboy Color

Ultra DS: Fat DS that can fit a UMD slot for PSP games. Also compatible with the GameBoy lineage.

Xbox Laptop: Windows 7 laptop that has a disk drive, controller ports & HDMI cable so you can use it as an Xbox 360 (plays classic Xbox games of course)

PlayStation Laptop: Same as above, but it uses Windows Vista and plays PS1/2/3

Wii Laptop: Same as above, but it uses Windows XP and plays Gamecube/Wii plus extra stuff so you can use it like a Wii

Sega Laptop: Ditto, Windows 98, Dreamcast/Saturn/Sega CD

How would this stuff work? Well, it would basically be Linux emulating everything. Also buttons to switch between the various systems.

We're kinda heading there with stuff like retron consoles, there's also this console called the evercade with a handheld version with a ton of cartridges that are compilations of games from the 90s and before like earthworm jim, banjo kazooie, tomb raider and others as well as compilation carts with recent indie games that are low on the requirement side
