Why Nibbi

A console you can hold, a game engine you can learn in an afternoon, and a price that doesn’t need a second thought.

Create and consume

Write games in Lua without wrestling the hardware. Build it, flash it, hand it to a friend.

Safe to hand a kid

No browser, no feeds, no app store. Just games, and the tools to make them.

Built for classrooms

A physical platform for teaching programming and game design, priced for a whole class set.

The one in the middle

Somewhere between a console that doesn’t physically exist and one that costs a few hundred dollars.

Fantasy consoles

Wonderful to make games in, but they live on your laptop.

Nibbi

Real hardware in your hand. Fantasy-console simplicity. Under $50.

Boutique handhelds

Beautiful and charming, but priced out of the classroom.
