@wave_walnut the gameboy color infrared communication was basically the amiibo of the 90s. You could transmit a tiny amount of data and that's it. In Pokémon for example, just trading pokemon was too much of infared. But you could give someone a mystery gift.
It's THAT why I never got it to work? I always figured it was because it was a steaming pile of garbage and was actually just half baked tech on the same level as the NES and would just break and that was that. I still have my GBC somewhere and probably my Pokemon yellow cartridge in some box somewhere, hopefully without batteries still in it 😬 I should see if anybody else I know has one and try to get it to work with something very low data.
