Bargain for the new POWKIDDY V90S, a retro console with a 3:2 screen that closes on itself to take up as little space as possible, as if it were a Game Boy Advance SP.
The screen of this small machine is a 3.5-inch IPS OCA with a 3:2 ratio and 640×480 pixels resolution, perfect for maintaining the right look in 8 or 16-bit games. On its motherboard, we have the Allwinner A133P processor, which has enough power to emulate retro machines up to the Sony PSP or PS1. A device with a retro design that we can easily carry in our pocket anywhere, since the central hinge allows us to reduce its dimensions considerably.
For its use and enjoyment we have an OS based on Linux, which ensures us to squeeze its performance, although in the future we can change it for other versions made by the community much more optimized.
