Palmer Luckey, the guy who founded Oculus and shook up the VR world, is back with something nostalgic yet fresh—the ModRetro Chromatic. It’s a portable gaming console designed to look like a classic Game Boy but with modern tech under the hood. And now, after teasing it for a while, it’s finally up for sale. If you’re into retro gaming with a twist, this might be your next gadget crush.
Editor’s Note: Retro gaming isn’t just a trend—it’s a full-blown movement, and Palmer Luckey’s latest project taps right into that. The ModRetro Chromatic isn’t just another emulator box; it’s a love letter to old-school handhelds with enough modern flair to stand out. For gamers who miss the simplicity of the ’90s but don’t want to deal with aging hardware, this could be a sweet spot. Plus, Luckey’s track record means people will be watching to see if this lives up to the hype.
