Melted Electronics has developed the Glitch Boy, a portable NES emulator built around real-time game corruption rather than straightforward play. Games are loaded via SD card and output to an external monitor or display. Twin dials on the device let users deliberately glitch the audio and video as the game runs, producing distorted visuals and sound akin to datamoshing. The project is described as a departure from typical retro emulation handhelds, treating corruption itself as a creative tool.
