I presume this is just for people of a certain age and wealth who just want a quick way to play their own collections on their phone. I get it as a capitalist product, but has little meaning beyond that.
People have already pointed out how few...
Well there is 1 important thing that this thing needs to do. And if it can't do it then its not worth your time. Can it properly and I mean properly bit perfectly rip CDs and GD-ROMs? Because those formats are a pain in the ass to get down to the...
I assumed that the app does all the emulation, and the device is purely just a dumper. That's what it sounds like anyway, since the app is needed to do literally anything.

My question is how can this have less content that a decades old game released in the Nintendo 64?
How can this launch with bugs that literally DELETE your Pokemon from Pokemon Home?
Why the hell is the framerate WORSE that Pokémon Legends: Z-A ?
Late, but my question to this is why they would even have to compete with Showdown in the first place. Afaik, Showdown is tolerated at best - it's not an officially-supported/endorsed program, and The Pokemon Company could strike it down anytime...
