This cartridge-playing Game Boy clone is smaller and cheaper than Analogue’s Pocket
The FPGB Mini’s cartridge support is limited to the Game Boy and Game Boy Color so it isn’t as capable as the Analogue Pocket that’s also compatible with the GBA and Sega Game Gear. What still makes the FPGB Mini a tempting alternative is its extremely pocketable design resulting in a handheld only slightly wider than a Game Boy cartridge, and its cheaper price.The FPGB Mini allows for multiplayer and trading over a USB-C cable.
