Anyone have experience hacking with a Gameboy? Did you leave comments in your code under that type of time constraint?

Yeah I once tried to eat a Gameboy but I just ended up choking on the small plastic parts, I ended up almost hacking up a lung. I gotta say it didn't taste very good either, it tasted sort of gamey.

I found this thread because im specifically trying to find out what this movie is called and this is the only site that mentions it. so heres what I remember:

the movie had kids in it, one boy, maybe another girl, but i think they were the protagonists so its safe to assume its a kids film, probably PG.

The gameboy was the boy's, he gives it to the guy who can hack at the end of the film to use to do the hacking

This one may be a different movie but at the start of the film someone hides something in the gameboy which is eventually given to the boy as a birthday gift, unsure if this is the same movie.

The film is most likely ripping off the movie "wargames".

It may be a 90s made for tv movie
I think that was "Enemy of the State" -- and it was a Turbo Express (portable TG16), not a Gameboy.

I have one. Contradicting the movie, it takes HuCards - not PCMCIA cards.

This is the best thread I have ever stumbled on! I thought it was a fever dream!!!! I recently decided to shove a pi zero in a gameboy shell and make a real hacking gameboy!
