History
[edit | edit source]The Gem Boy Zero was announced around September 15th, 2021.[1] The console was developed to avoid the need to destructively harvest Dreamcast VMU shells, as was done for the base Circuit Gem.[2]
Technologie
[edit | edit source]The system is based on a Raspberry Pi Zero used in conjunction with a custom PCB updated from the prior Circuit Gem.[3]
