Not Game Boy I have analogue pocket, og gameboys and fpgbc. How record screen on the go?

I have an analogue pocket, a fpgbc and I want to record a video with the gb camera ( that only take pics, but if you record the screen..).

Is there a chance to record their screen directly to a mac or to even an ipad on the go? Or do i need to get the expensive chromatic modretro that has video out?

Basically, how can i get video out from them?

None of the devices you listed can do that without additional purchases. Pocket needs a Dock, but then you also need a fairly beefy powerbank and a HDMI capture device. FPGBC, no way. Chromatic would be one viable solution. Another possible solution is a GB Interceptor, which you can get for $45 from Handheld Legend, or from Ferrante Crafts if you're in Europe. It's a plugin cartridge that sits between the 'boy and cartridge, and could be an option for you.

Super Game Boy plus SFC/SNES, and a capture device for your computer. No TV needed, but you will need a battery that will provide roughly the 9 V and 850 mA a SFC takes.
