- This a cloud gaming handheld, do not down vote this post if you think the device is useless to you.
- I think this is a better buy than the PS Portal because it comes with android OS, so you are not limited to ps remote play.
- Yes, you can do this with a phone and a controller. I still think a dedicated handheld has it's perks compare to a phone.

Buy an older phone from ebay. it can be one of the larger ones with 6.5"+ display. will likely have a lot higher resolution than 1080p. (for example, samsung galaxy a42)
Buy a kishi/backbone/gamesir.
Should be around the same price as getting a g cloud at this price.
Pros: you get a more versatile device. higher resolution display. probably a more capable cpu for emulation.
Cons: Smaller screen.
Unless you really need that .5" of extra screen, g cloud (at least at this price) doesn't seem like a good option to me.

You might save a little bit of money getting something like the Ayn Odin Lite which has similar specs but really, not that much at this deal price.
If you spend the same $250 or so, you can get an old phone to use as a dedicated gaming device, with a higher resolution screen and a better processor, and it also happens to be a backup phone.
The more powerful CPU is important if you're trying to emulate 6th gen consoles. The Snapdragon 720 on the G Cloud is not quite powerful enough for every PS2 / GC games, at least without some compromises. With a more powerful CPU, you can run them without issues, and at higher resolutions.
If your main use case is just cloud gaming, $250 is not a bad deal for the G Cloud.
But, you could get a dedicated cloud gaming device / backup phone that's more powerful, higher resolution, easier to carry around, but slightly smaller screen.
Edit: I meant GC games, not Wii games. It probably wont run most Wii games full speed.
