A Promising New Open-Source FPGA Handheld

The Game Bub is a fully open-source FPGA handheld designed for GBA, but has enough power to play a lot more. Its open and dev-friendly nature means that it might get better and better over time. Let's take a look at this early prototype and see whether it's worth your consideration.

All opinions are my own, they did not see this preview video ahead of time, and no money was exchanged in any way.
