The 8Bitdo FlipPad doesn't quite perfect turning your phone into a Game Boy, but I'd absolutely recommend it for cheeky Pokemon sessions
The 8Bitdo FlipPad offers a sleek and tactile way to turn a smartphone into a retro handheld, particularly for games like Pokemon and The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. Its clever hinge mechanism allows quick access to the phone screen, and the clicky dome buttons provide satisfying input. However, its reliance on a specific phone case thickness for a flush fit and the lack of Bluetooth connectivity limit its versatility compared to competitors.
