That pi zero in a cartridge is so cool!

It really shows how far tech has advanced.

I know you could fit multiple phone chips or probably like an M series laptop chip (in the hypothetical world Apple made them open), but the pi and the peripheral ports hit for me that is a real computer

+the fact the pi is so darn cheap, has the IO and can emulate the game on the system not at all designed specifically for the task while also running a whole Linux stack and being online. Things have advanced tremendously.
