    I wonder if it would be possible to recreate something like this for real, with cartridges for each software/tool (like a gameboy or similar?), excluding the comically tiny keyboard probably :P

      The size of that floppy does seem a decent match to a microSD card.

            PineTime’s CPU isn’t that grunty - 64MHz Cortex-M4F.

            The concern would be giving it a microsd slot to work with, which the Pico doesn’t have either but it’s probably easier to attach one to that than the pine time, but yeah size would probably be an issue there
