I got my oldest the "my first battle" kit for her birthday and she lost every game she played with it 😞

It has simplified rules and very simple decks so it's basically entirely luck.

I got her a normal level 1 set of decks for Christmas and she's done better

It did it! Over 1.4k in the first 12 hours. Good job little video

Oops, my two recent learn assembly videos got 1.3k-1.4k views in the first 24 hours. It's still the fastest to reach 1k and there's a chance this video will beat those in its first 12 hours

I think I prefer the right one. It's not a strong preferred though

The round one maybe reads a bit like puddles. Not sure

I just reread your blog post about it and noticed the mention that the current setup is "clunky in a nice way". So maybe I'll stop talking about a problem you're not having 😁

Oh I like this idea. Do you have ideas on how to make the posting process easier?

And is it for production or like a 1-off / handful of units?

Is the goal just a physical cartridge? Or do you want a single ROM too?

do you need save support?

Bah, this is another one of those annoyingly interesting game boy problems that'll keep popping into my head for ages

oh and they have to have compatible jump vectors...

That's to do things automatically. Handcrafted bespoke mashups might be more doable.

custom MBC would be a lot easier
