I wanna get a low end emulator for my younger sis. All I nwwd is up to GBA, enough for some pokemon and Mario games, maybe Kirby too.

I'm fine with pre loaded ROMs and those shitty "(insert number) in one" type devices

Budget is as cheap as possible.

What can I get?

There's loads of options. All depending on your budget

Abernic RG351V is currently a nice low price, for a 351 device. It can play up to psx flawlessly and handheld it could play up to DS, but it is not recommended for obvious reasons.

Other abernic devices might also work. I have the RG351MP myself, and am very happy with the build quality.

Take a look at this video for some recommendations released last year from first had experience from a guy who plays on a lot of these devices. His channel should be your go-to stop for any retro handheld devices.

I feel like the RG35XX might be better suited for GBA. I'd say even the RG350 but it's only about $10 less than the RG351 these days.
