I grabbed the Capcom Super Pocket for my oldest son for Christmas this year. I got him the Piko Collection 1, Data East Arcade 1, and Mega Cat Studios Collection 1 carts to go with it. Kinda wishing I'd have grabbed the Renovation Collection cart, too, but it'll be for another time. He likes playing handhelds a lot, and he has a pretty strong predilection for 16-bit games, so this thing should be just right up his alley.
