I just watched their YouTube video [1]

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.

Those do not play carts.
The FPGBC is closer to what this is trying to accomplish. Supports actual carts.

Edit: and it doesn't support Palmer Luckey

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.

What? You don't want to fund the military industrial complex with a hand-held retro console?
huh?
Palmer Luckey founded Anduril which makes military drones.
Why would you want to play a cart, though?
