So this just got announced in CES 2017 as a "rebirth" of the original Gameboy. What do you guys think?

Personally, I don't see the point in it when the AGS-101 GBASP exists, does everything the Super Retro Boy does, is official hardware, and doesn't have the god awful L and R button placements.

I hate these awful clone consoles.
The only thing I've ever seen thats good is the AVS.

I also want to add that the Revo K101 has been out for ages and also does the same shit. Retrobit is really scrapping the bottom of the barrel here.

That chinese clone is better than this

RetroBit is absolutely terrible. They even have a shitty NES Mini clone. AVS is their only saving grace.

Cheap plastic shit.

>>3752913
This. Only clones which are good are which are not emulating but have the hardware rebuilt completly. Like in modern cases the AVS or back then Dendy and some other Famiclones.

What is AVS?

If it's not an official product, it's not a "rebirth" of anything.

RetroBit != RetroUSB

RetroBit doesn't make the AVS, you morons.

NES Clone that plays in HD via HDMI

hmm, as it seems, the only thing this would be good for is for slap a MicroPC (Raspi, Odroid, Lpanda or UDOO) to make an emulation machine that would look better than any GB hackjob.

I would buy it on two conditions.
1. It is an fpga based handheld.
2. GB/C games are displayed in the correct aspect ratio and GBA games can be played in black borders.

Sort of applies to this, which Retrons can hook up via HDMI?
