      @Brandon Salt i still have my game boy, pocket, sp etc from when i was 9yrs old. I recently gave all my stuff to my 10yr son. We are a gaming family...we have almost every system out there. I think this is worth $10-$15 just for the effort these knocks go through to sell these things lmao. $4 great deal😉👍

    Viewing the page, it'll say the item is £3.06 with a postage cost of £0.75, but when you select he version you have to ship to the UK, it's actually £5.91 with postage going to £1.37, so instead of it being £3.81, it's actually £7.28, £3.47 more.
    How does the quality of the actual handheld feel?
    Is the sound good?
    How is the battery life?
    Are the buttons nice and solid?
    I think this thing's worth a whole proper video dedicated to itself.

    It's showing for $7 for me, $4 in bulk, but they're offering a $4 coupon. $1.66 shipping to the US. Expect it to take weeks though. This isn't a gameboy, it's a Famicom emulator (Japanese NES), playing Famicom games hacked to have English and Chinese. These go for $22 on Amazon.
    I ordered an ODroid Go instead, a $36 kit, with multiple emulators that's programmable (It's similar to a Arduino, with a better processor and more memory, but kind of a slow interface to most of the memory and screen - probably will have to skip frames since without tricks the screen update rate is 30 hz). It has both programmable internal flash and a flash card slot.

    I'm sure after your video you would have realised you don't have 268 games, you have maybe 2 dozen games, then the remainder are just the same games with new names, where they will start you off on a higher level or something. to create a "new" game.....

Third, there are children as young as five working on this shit. Given the choice of hanging out and watching cartoons, or working a 14 hour day, I'm pretty sure there is some coercion going on. Ie.
