FPGB Mini: A Smaller, Cheaper Game Boy Clone Compared to Analogue’s Pocket
FunnyPlaying has announced a new handheld gaming device called FPGB Mini that plays original Nintendo Game Boy and Game Boy Color cartridges. While it lacks support for GBA or Sega Game Gear games compared to the more expensive Analogue Pocket, its compact size—slightly wider than an actual cartridge—and lower price point make it appealing. The FPGB Mini is currently priced at $69.99 after a discount from $89.99 and features such as FPGA technology for accurate game emulation, a 2.98-inch LCD display, and USB-C multiplayer capabilities. The first batch of only 20 units sold out quickly but the company may release more following hardware improvements. The device also includes an internal battery and microSD slot for storing ROMs or saves. However, it cannot accommodate cartridges with rumble motors due to its compact design.
