  As is often the case with such affordable retro handhelds, there’s no internal storage, but two card slots are available. One of these microSD cards should contain the operating system, while the other can be used to store games.

  We have come the full circle. exotech.bm/wp-content/uploads/…/imb-pc-5150.jpg

  Based on the system hardware it’s not worth it IMO. Too many limitations with that 1GB of RAM. People with less money who just want to play games and rom hacks would still have a blast though.

    The Xbox 360 ran on 512mb of ram. Lots you can do with 1gb (yes I know this can’t play 360 games)

  Oh I’m sure tarrifs will bring the price up to $400 and your left testicle.

    I don’t live in the US. The price in local currency was close enough to $50.

    Considering no ships having been going stateside from China, will Americans receive it at all?

    I plan on trying out the PS2 emulator on my phone since I have a Backbone. Maybe when I get my next phone upgrade, my old phone will be a dedicated emulator.
