Columbus Circle Unveils New SNES Clone Hardware

Japanese company, Columbus Circle, is set to revolutionize SNES/SFC enthusiasts' experience with the launch of its new portable SFC compatible machine. Touted as the IPS 16bit Pocket HD, this device promises compatibility with a wide range of Super Famicom and SNES cartridges.

Key Features at a Glance:

  • 4.3-inch IPS LCD screen for beautiful visuals on-the-go, ensuring nostalgic gaming in crystal clear definition.
  • Wireless controllers included to enjoy games solo or in multiplayer comfort without wires getting in the way.
  • HDMI connection option allowing seamless integration with TVs for bigger-screen experiences.
  • Lithium-ion battery pack

However, the company acknowledges that not all games will work perfectly, suggesting compatibility issues might arise in certain games. It should also be noted that the wireless controllers are powered by AAA batteries.

The Verdict: While it may not be the most sleek device on the market, this new hardware offers an exciting prospect for those eager to relive classic Super Famicom experiences anytime and anywhere.

Is there room in the market for a new handheld that plays games from only a single console?
