I found this device for only $30 and that was with the oled screen option can't wait until it comes!!!

My wife surprised me with one of these for Christmas. So far it works very well, except some of the N64 games lag a little bit. But all of the Game Boy or Sega games I've tried so far have been working perfectly. Mine included a 128gb micro SD card, so the size of the card you get will probably factor into how many games you get out of the box.

Ps1 games run fine in my experience. I overclocked the ps1 cpu/gpu(unsure which one it was)in the emulator settings when I had a ps1 game open and it made any ps1 games played after, run smoothly. The weird kinda issue is that n64 games don’t seem to run smoothly and there’s no overclock option on the emulator settings. I’m unsure if the n64 was just a more demanding console than the ps1 (I didn’t think so but am unsure). You’ll enjoy the console for anything below that generation, gbc/gba/neo geo/snes/genesis/arcade and so on. Don’t even try to attempt Dreamcast because it’s more or less a waste of time sadly.

I just got one for Christmas. The DS selection is a bit limited compared to the other systems, (I assume because without the use of the touch screen, some games would be difficult to replicate,) I don't recall seeing any DS Pokemon games listed out of the box. However, I have heard that you can download more games into the Powkiddy. It does include virtually every Pokemon game from the Game Boy Classic, Color, and Advanced.
