There are a tonne of alternatives for those interested in retro-gaming devices.
There is also a sub-reddit for these discussions (r/sbcgaming) [2]
Devices made by Anbernic and Miyoo are good. There is also the new Gamekiddy Pixel. These existing devices are usually available at around $50-85 and are much cheaper than ModRetro’s $199 price point.

The FPGBC is closer to what this is trying to accomplish. Supports actual carts.
Edit: and it doesn't support Palmer Luckey

Why would you want to play a cart, though?

The analogue pocket, too. $20 dollars more expensive and not in stock very often but it also plays GBA games and some other consoles with an adapter.
I guess the fact that it is always out of stock proves that a market exists for this kind of stuff.

#9At that price point, why not buy a real gameboy?
By the way, i think the PS Vita is pretty awesome for emulation. Such great hardware!
