The PowKiddy RGB30 is a surprising device. With a 4-inch, 1:1 (square) aspect ratio and 720×720 resolution, it scales a number of retro systems extremely well, making it a real contender for classic systems. It’s quickly becoming my favorite device for many systems: GB/GBC, NES, SNES, GBA, Pico-8, and vertical arcade games.
