Supaboy - New 3rd party SNES handheld

[MrPopo]

I heard that the battery life is 2.5 hours. That's pretty bad honestly.

That's horrible. Not even the Game Gear was that bad. Is there an AC Adapter?

Yes, there is an AC Adapter. It's used to recharge the battery.

There are a few scattered reviews out now, but of what I've seen they are of course, all just really overviews that don't go into detail about the capabilities and shortcomings of the system. I have a sizable collection of Super NES and Super Famicom games and a number of unlicensed controllers. As soon as mine arrives, I'll have an in-depth review for you guys before the end of the year in both written and video formats. Stay tuned.

I found this youtube video very informative:

The uploader is obviously from the east, but there is very little speaking in this video, so language barrier is not an issue.

I got one today, and it works rather great aside from a few flaws. My screen seems to have a brighter, better picture when viewed from above like it's tilted, making for awkward gameplay, and for the life of me, I can't get mario rpg to work. I own 40~ games, and this is the only one. Worked once, but that was it. Even re-cleaned the contacts. I've heard others can play it fine, so i think my cart's got some issue.

It isn't your cart. Super Mario RPG has the SA-1 chip and most clones can't run it.

If you Google NES Clones Reviews you should find a work around for this.

My girlfriend gave one to me for christmas. I was really excited, she even custom made a box with a few of my favorite game art on the sides. Problem, I turn it on and it's zoomed in like crazy to one side of the screen and the screen was red like I was playing a Virtual Boy. Looks like I'll be sending mine back, I have quite a few games and tried very common games I knew had to work. I plugged it into a tv and it seemed fine, so who knows. I'm just bummed I have to wait longer to use it (sending it back today) I'll post some pics when I get it back!

Ouch. Sucks to hear that. Sorry man. Hopefully they're a decent company and will work with you on it.
