Nice price, but not great build/parts quality for it's intended purpose.
Great offer, but I have my RetroFlag GPi case for Raspbery Pi Zero. I love it.

Sorry, me no gamer. I just happened to come across it and thought I'd link it here as probably most of us are in a pre BF mood and hey 50% rebate looked great and as a gaming toy it might be nice.
My second reason was that one could "abuse" that thingy just as a plain linux SBC and about $30 is a very nice price for a 4 core Arm board with a gig of memory and even a screen.

no, thank you.
Where the fuck you tried to ship it?
To the fucking south pole?
My shipping fee to the U.S. is $23.20. Even at that rate, that's too much. Hardkernel (Odroid) stuff ships out of South Korea if I'm not mistaken.
Oops, sorry I didn't look at the shipping costs.
To the fucking south pole?
Middle East ?
I was excited but shipping is a deal breaker
When I was 14 and had a spectrum clone i was dreaming of a commodore 64. Now i will try to get one :P
As someone who bought a couple ROCKS running this RK CPU, stick with the Raspberry pi.
That said, if they had HDMI out, we'd have bought them out.
These are fun, I have the clear case version.
I have a Commodore 64 with a SD2IEC and play any of the games I want on a CRT TV, its amazing!
Even with shipping costs to Europe, still not a bad deal. Could see a few non-gaming uses for it tbh.
That's a bit of a fucker. Will have to order it to Europe and pick it up at Christmas.
Or maybe order 7+ of the thingies in a group order. Given that intra-Europe shipping isn't very expensive that might be a good way, if you find some others who want one.
Plus, of course, there should be EU-distributor(s), no?
