Because it is only for sale in China, some of these are available on ebay for around 100 dollars including shipping. Quite steep seeing as it was released in 2003 and emulates an old system, but this could help some people slim down on their portables. No cartridges needed. About 5 dollars per game when downloaded off the internet through the IQue website.

Any thoughts? It seems small enough to utilize. Just fyi, Nintendo did this in conjunction with another company so it's not illegal or not authentic.

Yes, these have been discussed before. They are very hard to get hold of and there aren't many games available for them, especially if you don't understand Chinese.

Very cool but considering the price and games available, I'll stick with the console. Yeah it's a much larger portable but IMO, the ability to have all the games available is worth it.

I am kinda curious to see if these ever hit stateside and what the price would be then.

They wouldn't have "Hit Stateside" as Nintendo (from what I understand) made these for the Chinese market in an anti-piracy move.
