It may not seem like a big deal to many honestly, but this in something that bothers me quite a bit.
Throughout most GameCube Portable project posts. I am constantly seeing at least one post in nearly all of these threads that states how it would be easier to build a Wii portable instead.
I see this in several different communities I am a part of, and it's not just here on BB.
It bothers me because people are actively coming to our communities with the plans and hopes of building specifically what they want, in these cases GameCube Portables, and we have people who are honestly slashing those ideas by calling it out in favour of the Wii.
I understand how great the Wii is, and how much simpler it can be in many regards, but if someone wants to still do something with a DD or use original peripherals such as the GB Player and BB Adapter, they can't do this with a Wii, specifically if they are using PM, as it doesn't support a DD.
As it is, portables of consoles prior to the Wii are becoming fewer than usual in recent times and by deferring people to the Wii, we are stifling what could be, with more of what already is.
When was the last time you saw a SegaCd Portable, or even an actual Super Nintendo Portable?
Small bit of venting, and I apologize for it, but it does vex me so
