I can't be the only one, right?

This just popped up in a feed of mine, looks like an interesting project bringing retro games to new consoles. I guess I’m wondering what other’s think. Would you be willing to buy your old game again?

If this device had the OnionOS/GarlicOS experience it would be the perfect device for me. Regardless of that it comes with me every day to work. It’s the best vertical form factor for longer play sessions IMO. Just wanted to show some love!
