Found a Soulja Sup Boy at the thrift store for $4, complete with micro USB second player controller despite the box saying it doesn't come with one.
The actual device itself sucks. It's made of the same basic Gameboy Famiclone material (since it's the same company, literally just adding "SUP" to their own products because Soulja Boy paid them to), but the basic Gameboy Famiclone at least feels like a light Gameboy Pocket. Everything about this one's design is awful to hold.


Your index fingers want to naturally rest in that little groove between the screen and bottom half, but they're too small even for my fragile girlish twink hands. The d-pad and face buttons are too close together, you can't avoid your thumbs touching. The entire d-pad presses in when trying to do any direction, it's just one big button, total shit and barely works for navigating the 500-in-1 game list let alone playing any of the games. Reset, Select, and Start are all one solid piece so Select gets pressed when pressing either other one due to being in the middle, not to mention they're in the middle between the screen and the bottom half inside some lip that's deeper than the Reset/Select/Start button(s), you'll be pressing the bottom half of the screen by mistake every time you go to press one. The power light is INSIDE the charge port/player 2 controller port.
