OpenAI's developer account responded to a DevDay attendee showing off this year's swag: a ModRetro handheld compatible with Game Boy Color. The intended workflow is to create a game with Codex, then load it onto a physical cartridge to play.

It's a fun blend of AI coding tools and retro hardware, with replies already joking about AI-generated "Slop Golden Sun 3" incoming.
