Yeah I'm not super versed in retro handhelds, but I've seen reviews of products that are not too much more expensive, yet offer like 100x the features and performance. I would imagine the ability to load custom ROMs would be a deal breaker. These review units seem one step away from coming in a cereal box, or as a superhero-themed extra toy you get in a movie theater popcorn combo.

Yeah a miyoo or https://anbernic.com/collections/handheld-game-console would be better. So funny he got the absolute worst.
