Here’s some fun news from the unexpected #GameAccessibility story department: For those who don't know, there's a ton of very little and cheep handheld emulation consoles you can get from China, which run their own linux-based OS which is just a UI for a bunch of emulators. Well, someone got in touch with a developer of this software and apparently pretty soon if you want to make one of these speak the menus, it’ll soon be possible to load a version of this software that does. forum.audiogames.net/topic/497…

I think even some of these run RetroArch under the hood.

I’d be way more happy if we could use one of these to make some accessible audio games. I do not understand young blind people, wanting to run 30 year old retro games, so they can press buttons and hear "bleep bleep boop", without any clue of what they’re doing in these games. It’s just some geek flex of having something, regardless of you can actually use it.

That's really cool. I've seen a lot of "Oh yeah, why not?" development like this from software and hardware companies in China.
