    It's definitely an interesting product, but too big and bulky to be useful for me. Has anybody made a TurboExpress clone, or a Sega Nomad clone? Hu cards are small enough that a portable where you plug the actual card in, could be small enough to make it viable.

    Have you considered the GP2X or one of its successors? I think their latest one is called "Caanoo."

    What's this doing in Classic>Computer? *shuffles it over to Classic*

    Also, I wouldn't say that clones like SupaBoy are any better with emulation than something like a Dingoo or GP2X despite the fact that they work with real SNES cartridges. You'll still find shortcomings that will put them squarely outside of the "perfect" category.

    You could always contract a custom modder to build you a portable SNES Ben Heck style. Expensive yes, but 100% "perfect" based on the fact that it's the real deal.
