BirdBoy Brings Cartridges Back—Sort Of

Why it surfaced

Each cartridge is only a tiny NFC key, not a ROM: pick one up, drop it in, and BirdBoy launches the corresponding game without menu diving. The site documents a working prototype that is still evolving, turning an ordinary digital library into a small, satisfying physical ritual.

BirdBoy uses physical NFC cartridges to launch games from a digital R36S library.
