    But will it have support?

    There’s a million cheaper raspberry Pis clones out there, but without the support they get nowhere near the popularity of the Pi.

      I think you’re misunderstanding, this isn’t a raspberry Pi type emulation device, this is a hardware clone of the chips in a real GBC, it even plays the original cartridges, and also flashcarts (well mostly, there’s a few kinks there because it’s new).

        I’m talking about software, not hardware. The pocket is magic because it’s open an developers can do whatever they want to it, and there’s a bunch of devs supporting it. This device is open source, but is just a fancy GBC, and the review pointed out that it’s a bit rough around the edges still.
