It's now been two years since the hotly anticipated launch of Panic's handheld, the Playdate.

    The lack of a backlit screen completely kills my desire to get one of these- no matter how cool it is. Any time I pull out my old Gameboy Advance I’m instantly appalled by how difficult the screen is to view in less-than-ideal lighting conditions.

      The play date display is much more visible than a gba. I think it was designed to reflect (or maybe absorb?) light in a way that makes it more visible than older handhelds. You still need some light but not as much as you’d think compared to the gba.
