Hacker runs Game Boy games on E-Paper display at 30FPS
Original: GameBoy on E-Paper ESP32 at 30FPS [video]
A hobbyist hardware project has got Game Boy games running on an E-Paper display driven by an ESP32 microcontroller, reaching 30 frames per second. The feat is notable because E-Paper screens are typically slow to refresh, making real-time gaming difficult. The build is being shared with the wider maker and retro gaming community, where hobbyists are praising the engineering involved and discussing how the refresh-rate challenge was overcome.
Why now: It combines nostalgic retro gaming with an impressive technical workaround of E-Paper's slow refresh limitation.
