- This console lets you play 16-bit game cartridges from classic Nintendo and Sega systems as they are, by inserting them. According to the source article, it reproduces the original hardware's behavior with a dedicated FPGA chip and does not use emulation. - A USB-C port has been added, so you can power it with the same cable used for a phone. The USB-A port is for attaching other peripherals. The output is 1080p, and the source says it does not support 4K. - Bluetooth or 2.4GHz low-latency wireless is built in, so you can connect a gamepad without a separate receiver dongle. Wired controllers can still be used. - The manufacturer explained that if you quit from the menu after finishing a game, you can change cartridges without fully turning off the power. The source presents this as the manufacturer's claim and does not say that actual use was verified.

O: This is useful for people who own several retro game cartridges and want to test their existing Super Famicom or Mega Drive cartridges in a new console and check how comfortable the wireless pad connection is. X: The manufacturer said the price is 219.99 and shipping is expected around December. The source does not say whether it will launch in Korea or what the price there would be, so Korean buyers need to check that separately.
