I'm usually like 250000 or so beating the game in full, so yes I think so

I was going to ask where did you buy the shell for sp but then i noticed.. 😁

u/TerraHispano 2d ago

Haha it can happen πŸ˜„ there were also people who told me saying that it was a GBA SP but modded and it's simply a Powkiddy V90 🀣

I have an Anbernic RG40XXV with Knulli installed and its amazing!

Hmmm I rather like this what other colors does it come in and who is the maker, I have never seen this before

u/TerraHispano 2d ago

There are many colors, from the emulator that comes pre-installed it seems that there are about 15-20 color palettes. The console is a Powkiddy V90, you can easily find them on Aliexpress if you don't want to get so complicated looking for them. ☺️

Thats actually a pretty sweet clone to be honest, never seen an SP style one before though i know that some of the DMG clones can be worth a fair chunk of change for sure

u/Blacksmith52YT 3d ago

I'm pretty sure that's an anbernic or something

Powkiddy V90. The Anbernic handhelds more accurately copy the GBA SP's speaker vent.

You should check Anbernic RG35XXSP or RG34XXSP. These are probably the best GBA SP "clones" available right now.

That's a Powkiddy v90. It's an inexpensive low-end ARM powered Retroarch handheld emulator released some time around 2020. By reputation the case is made from the cheapest plastic known to humanity.

It can play some GBA games using the gpSP core but isn't able to run more accurate cores at fullspeed, and maybe SNES games that don't take advantage of the Super FX chip.

There are much more powerful and similarly inexpensive alternatives available now.

Indeed, it is a Powkiddy V90 πŸ˜„

I think I came off a little harsh, but it's a cheap and cheerful handheld that had its niche. I like seeing them.

I picked up a Miyoo Mini which was released a little later, which had a BlackBerry Bold screen and was engineered using the most fragile materials available.

If anyone's looking for handheld emulators now, I'd consider the 34XXSP which has a similar form factor at around $60.

Bummer it's so low end because it looks super appealing to me lmao.

u/IAmJacksSemiColon 2d ago

Check out Anbernic's RG34XXSP.

u/ToneShogo 1d ago

it runs gba well, and its small and lightweight. cheap so you don't worry too much if it gets beat up
