    Default Revo K101 (new GBA hardware clone)

    Remember the GameBox Advance SP? Well, there's another GBA clone that's been floating around lately:



    This one seems to be modeled after the original GBA and the DS Lite. I don't know much about it other than it has A/V out, plays MP3's, comes with a flash-type cart, and supposedly has a really good screen. I did find this review about it, though: http://obscurehandhelds.wordpress.co...-short-review/

    (I apologize if this has already been discussed, did a quick search and couldn't find a thread about it)

    This is the first I've heard of this clone. Thanks for the info!

    Wow, that's a really good review and the device looks nice.

    Currently I've got the SuperCard DSTwo for 3DS and that runs most GBA games like a champ via the onboard emulation hardware/software & I've also got a Dingoo which also performs the task amicably.

    If I didn't have either I'd strongly consider one of these!

    I think it looks cheap.

    Looks better in the review than the pictures in this thread ... but for $60, I'm not expecting a solid state build. Probably mid-grade plastic.

    I've seen dozens of different GBA clones, but ever one of these.
    So far the best I've used is modeled after a GBA SP and has an SD slot.

    I just checked the review, and it uses the DS button layout. How in the hell can someone smart enough to build a GBA clone make such a stupid mistake?
