“Blow the dust out of your Game Boy cartridges, the Chromatic handheld is bringing retro back.”

TheGamer

“As soon as I had it in my hands, I fell in love. The Chromatic has a beastly weight to it, one that makes it feel good while you’re holding it. It seems nearly indestructible. The reason it has such heft to it is that it’s made with a magnesium alloy shell, which is crush-proof and made to last forever.”

“This screen is probably the closest thing to translating the Game Boy to a modern display as one can possibly get.”

Nintendo World Report

“One of the standout elements of the Chromatic is its superior build quality. Compared to the original Game Boy, which feels almost toy-like with its lightweight plastic casing, the Chromatic feels like a premium product. There’s a noticeable heft to the device, which gives it a robust, well-made feel in the hands, and the buttons and gamepad are both satisfyingly tactile – perfect for those long retro gaming sessions.”

Press Play Media

“Anyone who is familiar with Game Boy hardware should be able to tell the difference instantly between the Chromatic and other FPGA-devices. But ModRetro is going one step further even than that and is actively releasing new Game Boy games in 2024.”

Nintendo World Report

“Without doubt the essential Game Boy experience.”
