Instead of turning M5Stack’s M5PaperS3 development hardware into another Kindle clone, Wenting Zhang used the Playdate’s open source CrankBoy emulator to create a Game Boy alternative with an easy-on-the-eyes E Ink screen.

The practicality of the project isn't really the point; it's mostly a fascinating demo of hardware hacking skill.
