Don't know who made it but they did and I'd pay 100 bucks for it.
It's a handheld emulator that plays actual roms. 4GB of internal memory with support of an SD card.

It's not mobile games. It plays roms from your computer. Like if you was on a trip or somewhere you more likely won't take your laptop with.

Meh, nice funky little gadget, but my PSP works just as well.

With hacks of course.

While it might be a bit more expensive, all of the Nintendo DS's can do the same thing with an R4DS with way more features...but If you wanted to save money, you could get the thing that the OP posted..

A better solution is to find a good blank gameboy cart with a mini-USB port.
A few people make them, they come in larger sizes than 4 gigs, they only cost $20 at most, and you can use your regular gameboy!

Give a dollar if you think Barack Obama will be a good president.
So far, 2 people think Barack Obama will be a good president.

Actually, I spoke too soon.
This little guy actually has some advantages if you can afford him.

That's sick.

It comes with 4GB removable and can play SNES, NES and a few others.

Looks like something I'd buy.

Quad Core Q6600 Intel overclocked to 3.2 Ghz || 4GB G.Skill DDR2 RAM || ATI Radeon HD4850 512MB || Gigabyte P45 mobo || Dual monitor 1680x1050 and 1920x1080 || A FUCKING MOUSE

It's a legit site, trust me, I have bought from them before.
I saw this the day it came out, but I will just wait for the I-Control pad to finish then play them on my iPod touch.

PSN: fangsniper
Games: TF2 and Killzone 2.
I just shat myself.

Man, I want one of these so bad now.

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.

I don't think you people have seen the wonders of what the PSP can do. Sure I could have a gameboy advance ROM playing on the PSP, but I could also have Super Mario 64 playing as well at 100%. Imagine playing that game on a long trip guys.

Would even be worth playing it with that system's D-Pad and button layout? Seems to me that the system is designed for optimal use with 2D titles, not 3D.

Please give some love to The Great One. He's Awesome.

I am neither a Wii, PS3, or 360 fanboy. I personally support Mattel and their Intellivision.
