New Playdate Update Showcase Airs This Halloween

If they ever do a new one, I'd like Bluetooth and a backlit screen, the rest is solid and still quite likeable.

@CopyX1982 I hope it's bringing enough customers that they can do that, but I'd love them to find a way to bring the stereo dock first!

@neufel

Someone asked them about the dock very recently and it seems like it's on indefinite hold. Which is a shame because I definitely was going to buy one.

I had no idea this was still a thing. I never saw the point of this handheld.

@slider1983 The point is that there is no "point", it's very niche and Panic is very aware of that. As is, the 'date just exists to be a weird little handheld with a weird little crank and weirder little games and for some people(like me) that can be enough.

@N00BiSH It does seem very novelty. Cool it's found an audience.

@slider1983 Yeah, it's got a bit of a hipster vibe, which entirely put me off from the start, but I do love that monochromatic screen; it's pretty spunky
