This GBA clone improves the best handheld ever made

[phillynews215]

• The ANBERNIC RG 34XX is a new gaming handheld that looks exactly like a GBA.
• It runs on Linux and features a 3.4-inch screen that’s perfect for 3x upscaling GBA games.
• The device will cost $70 ($64 early bird) and goes on sale on December 16.

Surprise, surprise—ANBERNIC has announced its 12th handheld of the year. This time, it’s the spitting image of the best handheld console ever made, the GameBoy Advance. The ANBERNIC RG 34XX even replicates the iconic purple colorway, as well as some limited edition colorways with transparent green and transparent red also available.

While the shape of the device is virtually identical to the GBA, it sports an Allwinner H700 chipset and runs on a version of Linux. The real unique selling point is the 3.4-inch 480p screen, which perfectly matches the GBA’s 3:2 aspect ratio. This resolution offers pixel-perfect 3x upscaling of GBA games, which this chipset is more than capable of.
