Best non-licensed console fighting games? โ the Vast Fame ones on GBC. They use the engine from Takara's KOF games so they were working from a solid foundation but they're really good. Especially Queen Fighter 2000

Favorite original (i.e. not a ROM hack) bootleg/unlicensed title?โฆ โ Squirrel King. It's one of my favourite Mega Drive games overall & probably the best example of Gamtec's work on the system. Fun to play, great musicโฆ https://retrospring.net/@taizou/a/113852356266914658

โฐ๏ธ Die lokale Zugspitzbahn wirbt mit dem Slogan โI love Wankโ und wollte diesen Spruch auf die Kandahar-Piste frรคsen. Das ist ein Problem. Diese Tourismuswerbung hat der Internationale Skiverband (FIS) untersagt. ๐ https://taz.de/!6059528/
It's frustrating though because this same company previously made 2 devices with IMO perfectly good controls, the D007 and D-R35 Plus, they had decent d-pads and big chunky face buttons so its weird they reversed track on something they were actually doing right
On the hardware side the screen is nice and it feels well built but i'm not enjoying the controls, the D-pad doesn't have much pivot & gives false diagonals, and the face buttons are too small and far apart. So even if the OS issue can be solved this might be kind of a miss sadly
It probably is able to boot from SD though since the SOC can usually do that as standard. So a custom OS is probably possible but it's unlikely any existing builds will work since they have to account for the screen and controls. And who knows if any devs will take interest in it
