Initial reviews are positive. Although it's very new, so longevity/ build quality is still up in the air. Analog sticks are Nintendo Switch type, so short travel not so smooth. Other than that, it's supposed to be a pretty competent machine. Perhaps the best this brand has put out.

I'm looking for a handheld that can play PSP games upscaled at full speed, let alone at native resolution. Doesn't look like this fits the bill according to reviews.

Any way I can play NCAA FOOTBALL 10 on the go for under $100 and not on a PSP?

Why oh why can't these "companies" hire a native English speaker to pick their company names? Powkiddy? Really?

Closest you would get to something $100 would be rg505 on temu combined with a good coupon. They don't have the rg505 right now but it comes in and out of stock.

For sure a used PS Vita is what he needs. I lean towards the 2000 version.
