I'm wondering if anyone has come across a Gameboy Clone. I came across this site:
http://ultimateconsoledatabase.com/port … ortune.htm
A company called Run Yield Enterprises made a GB clone called "Super Giant" which looks exactly like this one.
I'm interested in the internals.

Anyone have one of those solar powered clones that play NES and Gameboy games?

That looks amazing, however I'd be concerned over button placement for LSDJ. Wouldn't sound be similar to any emulator on a computer?

I've never seen a GB clone before, but that Faxanadu looks sexy sexy.

Found the manufacturer of this device. GreenBaba
http://greenbaba.com/Solar-Charger/TC01 … layer.html
From the site:
Game support: support 8-bit Nintendo FC/NES, and 16-bit GB/GBC game by third party simulator.
Sounds like it just does software emulation.
Still interested if anyone has this device.

I WANT THAT SOLAR mp4 player!!! Could it play gba carts?
hmmm...no it can't... poop ass.
I feel like reginald douche though having just bought a near hundred dollar mp3 player.... that ISN'T Solar powered... nor does it play NES roms...
Poo gas.
I'm with BleepBloop... how's that baby sound?

I took the plunge and purchased an eMotion Solar mp4 player from tiger direct. When I'll get it I'll open that baby up and show the internals to the world!

That Mega Duck isn't a GB clone unfortunately. It's a custom game in the same form factor.

Conclusion:
It has an ARM9 processor, seems like a lot of MP4 players use the same setup. This is similar to the main processor in the Nintendo DS. Plays Nintendo, Sega Genesis and Gameboy games. Sound emulation is horrible, can't even play Tetris properly. Start button doesn't even work in LSDJ. The default game Genesis game is a little laggy. 
Not worth the money.

A so called NES portable. It's a custom made portable console with a screen and buttons.
