  The games released on carts on official games, but they’re playable on an unmodified console system. Where do the goalposts get moved to now? Games are released on something you said wasn’t possible, so which is it?

    Both can be true.

      How so? How can it be a walled garden if anyone can develop and release a game cartridge for it?

        If anyone could release a game cartridge, the GBA would have been filled with shovelware. Homebrew was possible on the DS and later thanks to off-the-shelf SD cards, but that didn’t mean you were going to be suddenly granted a writable game cartridge. If that were the case, we wouldn’t need emulators.
