Pokémon Emerald running natively on a $6 microcontroller — full game, 60 fps, HDMI out, real buttons, saves that survive a power cycle. No emulator: the pret decompilation is recompiled from ARMv4T to Cortex-M33 and the Game Boy Advance's video hardware is reimplemented in software on the second core.
