    Honestly I’d love just a video effect that does the same thing. It wouldn’t be the same, but I feel like trying to find a functional GB Camera would be difficult.

      They are very common, big seller, unqiue enough that they didn’t get thrown away, solid state everything so nothing really to fail. Like 30 bucks on ebay and ebay is always inflated prices

    Wait. The big news here is UVC in iOS 17!!! It means you can turn an iPhone into a HD video recorder from an external camera or video source! As a Steadicam operator this is huge!

        Except atmos can’t run apps, doesn’t have an IMU with compas/accelerometer/gyroscope, doesn’t have wifi/Bluetooth. I’ve been working on some projects that include some video processing other than just recording video feed.

        The printer can also be used in Zelda DX to print things from the game.
