As the name implies this is the first handheld from MindKids, theyre mostly known for aftermarket cartridges but have made a handful of clone consoles, notably the ShellNES which was built into a cartridge shell. The development & engineering is done by the owner, it's basically a one man operation

The pictures in the listing also show a NES version which doesn't seem to be available at the moment

I'd considered contacting them to see if there was a way I could buy one but I doubt I'd use it regularly & I'm not really feeling "buying things just to have them" at the moment. But I thought I'd share it around anyway because I'd like to support this kind of interesting development in the field

There's this interesting handheld called "Begin" by MindKids, it's a Mega Drive real hardware clone (using a TCT chip, the good ones) with a built in EverDrive that allows it to run ROMs from a MicroSD card. Not shipping to UK or EU atm sadly https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006540839457.html

Honestly I didn't even know we laid them

Went to get lunch, there was a cat lying in the sun outside a shop & I got to pet it. I never normally encounter pettable cats around here. Birthday blessing

it's my birthday?!??!?! wow
