Any WonderSwan fans here?

I had been wanting one of these for years, so I finally picked one up thanks to some Christmas money. I put in an IPS screen, some pads to fix the power button, a new lens, and got some rechargeable AA batteries. I have three games so far, Klonoa: Moonlight Museum, Digital Monster Ver. WonderSwan, and Final Fantasy IV. I’ve mostly been playing Klonoa, since it’s the main reason I wanted a WonderSwan in the first place (also all those Digimon games). I might get myself a Flash Masta next time they’re available to play some fan translations and maybe some more absurdly expensive titles.
Man, that’s living the dream! I’ve been considering the same since they’re so cheap right now. IPS screen and a flash cart was my plan. Have you played the fan translations of Digimon Adventure?

I’m aware of it, but I haven’t played it yet.
I’ve only started it, but it’s surprisingly good! I hesitate to recommend it too much because I’ve barely played any, but I’m definitely intrigued.
