Emailed the QQ3DS team about their card requesting a video and got this in response:

What's the QQ3DS? Does it offer anything that the three current major players don't, or is just another sky3DS clone?

tl;dr Why should I care?

tell them if it costs around £3 then they will be onto a winner.
I'd be surprised if any flashcart cost much more than £3 to make.

It's a Sky3ds clone that will apparently be cheaper than the Sky3ds

if it's like 20 or 30 i'd get it.

comes with a r4i bunch of letters for ds playing on 9.4 too, which doesn't interest me.

lmao "please wait for more patience" ah, so that's how it works.

Actually, FPGAs, etc., custom PCB manufacturing in small batches, extra components, plastic shell molding, etc. add up quick. The FPGA used by the GW is around 25USD each.

You should also keep in mind that the Gateway team doesn't have the spending power to mass-produce like Nintendo, so they have to obtain components and manufacturing contracts at a much higher cost than Nintendo would.

Source? People always like to do maths with random numbers.
Looking at the price of old NDS card at retail (15$) I highly doubt the physical cost of the card itself being so high during production. His estimation (5$) seems a lot more accurate to me.

It also make sense that its retail cost is slightly more since it offer what it seems an R4+Sky3ds.
Still look like a joke anyway with that name.
