    Fair assumption.

    I'd say GBA clone is a good guess...
    It has a very similar general layout and most defining the GBA widescreen aspect, I don't think there've been any other handhelds with that aspect.

    I doubt it's a GB clone, mainly becasue it says "TV/Joysitck connectable" on the left. It's probably a famiclone, similar to the Game theory Admiral. See if they'll send you a sample unit or something.

    When you start your store make sure you post the link here.

    that machine is a Famicom/NES clone with built in screen. I saw a review of it somewhere on the net but have no idea where it was. Isn't it called something with a crazy name?

    Are you thinking of the "Game Theory Admiral"? I can see the resemblance, but the GTA looked more professional, and had a colour TFT screen. If that was one (or a clone of the GTA clone) you would think they would try to up-sell it a bit.

    that's the one. I thought that this new clone was a clone of the Game Theory Admiral. You know, a clone of a clone.

    Actually, isn't this a manufacturer site? So it might be the GTA generic model or something, and then whatever company who sells the GTA like orders X number in blue and pink and supplies thier own packaging.

    Just a theory.

    I have a clone gameboy, it's probably a clone gameboy color, the cart slot looks too small. I saw these on a bootleg factory site, says it's gameboy... hmm

    Anyone want to volunteer to pick one up? Read somewhere that if you BS them good enoguh you can fool places like these into sending you samples (most of the time that you have to send back.)

    I'll try e-mailing them and telling them I work for a magazine or something, see if they fall for it.

    I have seen that before. You burn NES roms to a disk and you can play them using the Trinities built in emulator.
