    Literally what stopped me from putting in my payment info. Even the cheapest tier (16GB w/o SD card) puts it at nearly $90 to purchase. I just bought an Ayn Thor Pro (with 4.0 processor) off Swappa. With that, my Steam Deck and my Switch 2, I think I’ll be fine for handheld GBA emulation.

    …but fffffffuuuuuuuuuck, the form factor of the SP and the fact that it was my second and most memorable handheld in my life (aside from my DS Lite) is calling me like a siren.

    If units were to be shipped to the US, would the price be increased at all?

      Have you tried Aliexpress?

      From what I’ve seen, that is the option which saves the most on shipping. Anbernic’s own site adds way too much with shipping, but when they sell on Aliexpress that drops so significantly. I’ve seen a few users saying it is the way to go, so maybe it is worth a look!

      (And I totally understand, with those handhelds the power to run GBA games is well in hand, but the form factor of this RGSP is a beautiful nod to the original!)
